What are the Advantages of Adding a Subcontractor as a Team Member instead of a Contact? 

Learn what features subcontractors have access to when added to your JobNimbus account as a team member.

Subcontractors as Team Members

When a subcontractor is added to your subscription as a Team Member, they are able to use the mobile app to communicate with you and other team members directly, have access to Work Orders, add photos, and more all within JobNimbus. This allows for smoother work flows and faster Job completion rates.

Subcontractors have access to the following features within the app: 

  • Photos
  • Forms
  • Calendar View
  • Assigned Tasks and Work Orders, including Work Order comments
  • The Job name and address
  • Shared documents and files
  • Photo comments
  • Real-time updates to Jobs and Job related documents and photos

Subcontractors do not have access to financial data or other sensitive information.

Note: Subcontractors will download the same JobNimbus app as other team members. Their assigned role in your Subscription will dictate their app access. To learn how to navigate the app as a Subcontractor, click here. 

Subcontractors as Contacts

When a Subcontractor is added as a Contact, they do not have access to the JobNimbus app or website. Documents and Work Orders can only be shared with Subcontractors who are added as Contacts via the share feature. Although the Share feature allows you to send documents to subcontractors as static documents, this means that real-time updates will not be visible on the sent documents as they are when a Subcontractor is added as a Team Member.
