Expected Outcomes
Measurable results our real estate clients achieve with vendor onboarding.
Digital registration and automated verification replace weeks of manual paperwork collection.
Every tradesperson on the approved list has verified current licences and insurance.
A verified, rated tradesperson directory enables faster assignment of maintenance requests to appropriate tradespeople.
The Challenge
Common vendor onboarding challenges facing real estate businesses.
Property managers using unverified tradespeople because the onboarding process is too slow
No centralised tradesperson directory, with each property manager maintaining their own contact list
Insurance and licence expiry tracking done manually or not at all, creating liability exposure
Landlords complaining about tradesperson quality because there is no performance monitoring or feedback system
Implementation
How we implement vendor onboarding for your real estate business.
Tradesperson and Supplier Registration
Create a digital registration portal for maintenance tradespeople, cleaning companies, photographers, and other service providers used by the property management and sales teams. Collect licences, insurance, ABN details, and service area information.
- ✓ Tools: Typeform, Google Drive, Make
Licence and Insurance Verification
Automatically verify trade licences against state authority databases, check insurance certificate currency, and confirm ABN status. Flag any documentation gaps and prevent unverified tradespeople from being assigned to properties.
- ✓ Tools: Make, Google Sheets, ABR Lookup
Landlord Compliance Routing
Route tradesperson approvals considering landlord preferences and property requirements. Some landlords specify preferred tradespeople while others delegate to the property manager. Capture and respect these preferences within the approval workflow.
- ✓ Tools: Rex, Make, Slack
Performance and Compliance Tracking
Monitor tradesperson response times, work quality ratings, and pricing competitiveness. Track insurance and licence expiry dates with automated renewal reminders. Generate quarterly performance reports for vendor review meetings.
- ✓ Tools: Google Sheets, Make, Gmail
