Required Digital Signatures Setting

 

GCPay recently introduced a new feature that mandates digital signatures for all standard waiver/templates completed by subcontractors. The Require Digital Signatures setting, found in the General Options section of a waiver/template’s settings, ensures a fully digital workflow by removing the Upload option that’s otherwise available to subcontractors. The setting appears only when Enable Digital Signatures are selected for a waiver/template. Enabling the setting ensures that waiver/templates are unaltered and populated exclusively with information originating in GCPay, which can expedite waiver/template review times for compliance and accounting teams. This setting won’t work for every circumstance, but it can be a time saver when it does.

Notarizing Required Documents Quickly and Easily

 

GCPay allows required documents to be notarized, quickly and easily by subcontractors. The newly streamlined digital signature feature of allowing general contractors the ability to remove sub-uploaded documents is the fastest way to get signed documents back quickly and securely. However, a different challenge faced by general contractors and subs alike is notarizing required documents such as lien waivers. Even though this happens on rare occasions for most, the time-consuming behavior is greatly simplified within GCPay thanks to a partnership with Notarize.com. With the recent acquisition by “Proof”, the interface may look different for notarize.com, but the process for GCPay users remains exactly the same.

Subcontractors enjoy the speed of the remote digital notary feature with an average of 300 documents currently being notarized within GCPay each month.

 

Reminder: Notarized documents must be uploaded into GCPay by each subcontractor so the new digital signature feature removing uploaded documents can’t also be used in this specific scenario.

The Importance of Trust and Diversification

Thanks to the support of our general contractors, developers, and government owners, GCPay will celebrate our 20th anniversary of managing projects in the commercial construction space later this year! This major milestone in product history is all due to the trust your teams place in GCPay and the diversification we all have in the construction segments we work with. With you, we have lived through everything from the deep dip in 2008 to the screeching halt of COVID-19 in 2020 and now the craziness in construction material prices, labor shortages, and job delays.

 

Trust and diversification continue to play major roles in all our businesses. By trusting that the payment application process within GCPay is secure and easy to manage, your teams can place greater focus on the day-to-day construction of facilities. As a contractor, you must have trust in your teams as well as your contractors to deliver projects on time!

 

Diversification is another trait the GCPay business and our clients have in common. In 2008, when many commercial construction projects were put on hold or canceled due to banking regulations and interest rate hikes, we leaned heavily on our government clients where projects were exploding. In the next decade, we saw major spikes in multi-family housing, new build retail and office space, hotel expansion, and major growth in residential construction. Many of our clients have also embraced diversification to ensure if one construction segment slows, an increase in another would continue to drive their business. However some of our clients with little to no diversification no longer exist.

 

How diversified is your business today? Are you trusting the right companies and products to accomplish your growth goals? Why not take a quick look at that WIP report to ensure if one segment dips your work in others can offset it, and keep your backlog full? And, most importantly, always make sure you trust your partners who help to drive your business to success!
