The construction industry inherently contains a high level of risk. Hiring a subcontractor who is experiencing financial distress, does not have a valid contractor license or proper insurance coverage can be devastating to the job and to the general contractor.

The GRMS Subcontractor Screening Program provides financial due diligence of subcontractor companies and their principals as well as the management of subcontractor licensing and insurance certificates on a job-by-job basis. With GRMS’ screening and ongoing management of subcontractors, property development companies and their general contractors can focus on managing projects with peace of mind and significantly reduce potential risks such as:

• Delays
  Replacing a prime subcontractor in the middle of the job creates lengthy delays in the job that may have a huge ripple effect among the other trades creating major issues and monetary losses for everyone involved.
• Penalties
  Most contracts contain significant penalties for completion delays that could substantially erode the projected profits from the job.
• Bonding Company Issues
  Any major delay or issues with a project may have an adverse effect on a general contactor's ability to bond for future projects.

• Improper or Expired Insurance Coverage
  Should a subcontractor or worker be injured on the job or a have an accident that destroys all or part of the project under construction and be underinsured or uninsured, serious liabilities can result with losses across the board. In most cases, the general contractor’s insurance coverage will be the next in line to cover the loss which will result in deductibles to be met as well as potential increases in premiums going forward.
  
• Client Relationship
  A major issue in the middle of a project such as a subcontractor bankruptcy or uninsured loss can have significant negative effects on the business relationship with a client and overall loss of reputation. A general contractor may not receive the opportunity to bid the next project due to past performance affected by the lack of quality subcontractors.
