The GC–Sub gap is costing projects millions

Double-bookings, no-shows, and compliance paperwork stall projects every week — in every market on earth. BridgeCrew is the trusted layer in between.

Full Credential Transparency

Every sub's complete record — business licence, Trade tickets, liability insurance, workers' comp, crew safety certs — verified, dated, one tap away. Checklists match your jurisdiction.

Workers' Comp Handled

We pull clearance letters on your behalf, automatically, and they auto-file to your project. Your compliance paperwork stays current — without the chasing.

Hours, Not Weeks

One call or one click. We match from a live bench by Trade, region, and availability — with ratings from real GCs in the network.

Private Tenders & Bid Packages

GCs tender to verified Subs; Clients send bid packages direct to rated GCs. Sealed quotes, no bidding wars — invite-only, never an open marketplace.

Project Files

Drawings, scopes, and certificates shared securely per project. Compliance documents file themselves.

On-the-Record Messaging

Every placement and tender gets a GC↔Sub thread. Negotiations stay documented — useful when liens and disputes come knocking.

What "BridgeCrew Verified" actually means

No vague "rigorous screening" promises. Here is exactly what the one-time $79 vetting checks before any Sub joins the bench — wherever you build.

Business licenceActive licence confirmed with the issuing municipality or province.
Trade certificationsRed Seal / provincial tickets verified with the certifying body — not self-reported.
Liability insuranceCertificate of insurance sighted, coverage amount and expiry recorded.
Workers' comp standingWorkers' compensation insurance clearance letter pulled at vetting, and filed to your project at every match.
ReferencesRecent GC or client references contacted and logged.
Ongoing accountabilityExpiry alerts on documents + two-sided reviews after every placement.

Verification is point-in-time at vetting and re-checked at each match — we tell you exactly what was checked and when, on every profile.

The old ways of finding a Sub, compared

Open bid boards race to the bottom. Staffing agencies own your workers. Word of mouth runs out. BridgeCrew is built differently.

Questions, answered straight

What does BridgeCrew verification include?

A one-time $79 vetting covering business licence, trade certifications (verified with the certifying body), liability insurance, workers' comp clearance, and references — itemized above. Profiles show exactly what was checked and when.

How much does it cost?

GCs: $250 per placement pay-as-you-go, $399/mo Standard (up to 10 placements), or $799/mo Premium (unlimited, priority matching). Subs: $499/yr membership + $79 one-time vetting. Individual Tradespeople: free. Clients and insurers: free. All CAD, month-to-month, no cancellation penalties.

What is a workers' comp clearance letter and why does it matter?

It confirms a subcontractor's workers' compensation account is registered and in good standing. Without one, the hiring contractor can be held liable for the sub's unpaid premiums. BridgeCrew retrieves the letter and files it to your project at every match, so the paperwork is done before day one.

Is this an open bidding site?

No. BridgeCrew is an invite-only network: GCs tender privately to verified Subs with sealed quotes. No race-to-the-bottom public bidding, and member contact details stay gated.
