The job

What construction companies actually deal with

Bonded jobs require continuous COI compliance

Surety carriers can call a bond if subcontractor coverage lapses mid-project. Automated reminders mean no sub stays on site uninsured.

Prime contracts pass risk down to the subs you hire

Owner-issued prime contracts almost always include flow-down clauses requiring AI endorsements and WOS language on every sub COI. Storing the full PDF means you can prove the language whenever asked.

Year-end carrier audits hit hardest on construction

Construction carriers audit harder than most. Missing one sub COI on a $5M payroll can mean a five-figure back-billed premium. Filter, export, done — five minutes instead of a week.

FAQ — Construction companies

Does this handle Additional Insured & Waiver of Subrogation tracking?

You store the full COI PDF on every row, so the endorsement language is one click away. We don’t auto-parse the PDF text yet (manual visual check still needed), but the document trail is centralized and searchable.

What about per-project COI requirements?

Most construction firms add the project name to the vendor entry (e.g. "Acme Electric — 1234 Main St"). When the project closes, you can archive the row. Pro adds dedicated project tagging on the roadmap.

How does this compare to enterprise solutions like myCOI or Jones?

For small-to-mid construction firms (under ~200 active subs), COI Tracker covers the renewal-reminder workflow at a fraction of the cost. Larger firms with full-time risk managers and Procore integrations typically need the enterprise services.

Can I import my existing tracker spreadsheet?

Yes — Growth+ includes CSV import. Most users bulk-load their full vendor list in one upload, then refine reminder dates as renewals come in.
