At Alcumus SafeContractor, we’re on a mission to transform contractor management and we truly value our customers and their feedback in order for us to achieve that. We continuously improve our product based on their input. So throughout the development process, we’ve taken into account their specific needs and concerns, making changes to create a better experience for them.

For contractors, we have a dedicated team of safety experts who provide support and guidance during the assessment process. We have also created a dynamic profile and risk-based questionnaire which allows contractors to quickly fill in the necessary information, relevant to all hiring clients. We also offer contractors the opportunity to become SafeContractor-approved, which makes them visible to prospective clients, significantly increasing their chances of getting hired.

For our clients, we have a team of health and safety experts who thoroughly review each contractor’s assessment and documents. We assess contractors on various factors, including professional identity, insurance, safety, training and qualification, ESG, modern slavery and environmental standards. Our clients can easily view, and filter contractors based on their information, tier level, provided services, and approval status. They can also access important information such as WCB status and SafeContractor approval.

We’re committed to delivering a modern, user-friendly platform, backed by our team of bilingual health and safety experts who always strive for excellence. We have priced our services competitively, ensuring that our customers receive the best value for their investment.

2. How does SafeContractor’s contractor management solution create compliance throughout the ecosystem? What are you doing that’s different to your competitors?

We recognize the critical role that compliance plays in the success of any business. Our solution is designed to address compliance at every level, seamlessly extending from the overarching company level down to the intricate details of individual contractors, workers, and tasks. Additionally, we emphasize the significance of gaining compliance visibility across the tiers of the supply chain. This means not only meeting compliance requirements but also ensuring a transparent and interconnected approach that spans the entire supply chain, fostering a culture of accountability and reliability.

One of the ways we stand out from competitors is that we offer flexibility. Our clients can customize the level of compliance that best suits their business, ensuring maximum effectiveness.

We cover a wide range of compliance requirements, including prequalification, worker compliance, task compliance, permits, site access, performance evaluation, network place, and eLearning for all workers. By offering a comprehensive suite of services, we provide businesses with the tools they need to achieve compliance across all areas of their operations.

Another key feature that sets SafeContractor apart is our Learning Management System. This allows businesses to deliver specific training to individuals based on their role and/or responsibilities and/or site that they are assigned to within the company. By providing targeted training, we ensure that workers are equipped with the knowledge they need to comply with regulations and carry out their tasks safely and efficiently.

We also understand that businesses want value for money. That’s why we strive to offer competitive pricing. We believe that compliance should be accessible to all businesses, regardless of their size or budget, and our pricing reflects this commitment.
