Managing Your Vendor List
How to add vendors, track contact info, trades, license numbers, and insurance status.
Adding a Vendor
1. Navigate to the **Vendors** page
2. Click **Add Vendor**
3. Enter the vendor's **company name** and **trade** (e.g., Electrical, Plumbing)
4. Add **contact information** — name, phone, email
5. Note their **license number** and **insurance status**
Why Track Vendors?
- Quick access to contact info when you need to schedule work
- Insurance and license verification for bank requirements
- Payment tracking linked to budget line items
- Historical record for warranty claims
> TIP: Always verify that your subcontractors have valid insurance (general liability + workers compensation) before they start work on your site. If an uninsured worker is injured, you could be liable.
