PaperTight

Subcontractor & vendor document management

Subcontractor document management, one package a month.

Subcontractor document management software is how a contractor collects, reviews and approves the recurring paperwork every vendor owes each period — timesheets, salary sheets, invoices and SOAs — in one place instead of chasing email and WhatsApp.

PaperTight gives each subcontractor their own package and portal, tracks readiness as files arrive, and keeps every approved version.

Cut the chase

One flow instead of five inboxes

The work of gathering a client pack rarely lives in one place — it is spread across inboxes, chat threads and a spreadsheet someone keeps by hand. PaperTight pulls it into one flow.

How do subcontractors submit their documents?

Collect & review

Straight into the right slot

Each subcontractor signs in to their own client portal and uploads files straight into the document slots you have set up — a Timesheet slot, a Salary Sheet slot, an Invoice slot.

You review each upload, approve it or reject it with a comment, then share the finished pack. Nothing arrives as a loose email attachment to rename and file.

How do you collect documents from vendors every month?

Every period, automatically

Packs that open themselves

PaperTight collects recurring vendor documents with Auto-Gen rules and reusable checklists. A rule pairs a project, a company and a checklist, then opens that vendor’s package on the 1st of every month — no one has to remember to start it.

As files come in, every package shows a readiness bar and an “N of M approved” count, and the review queue gathers everything waiting on your team.

Frequently asked questions

How do vendors upload their own documents?

Each vendor or subcontractor signs in to their own client portal and uploads files straight into the document slots you have set up — a Timesheet slot, a Salary Sheet slot, an Invoice slot and so on. You review each upload and approve it or reject it with a comment; there is no email attachment to download, rename or file by hand.

What is a document submission portal?

A document submission portal is a scoped login where a vendor or subcontractor sees only their own company’s required documents and submits them directly, instead of emailing files back and forth. In PaperTight the portal shows each company its open packages, what is still missing, and the status of everything it has already sent.

Do subcontractors have to pay for portal access?

No. Client-portal users are free and unlimited — they never count toward the member limit on your plan. You can invite every subcontractor and vendor you work with to their own portal at no extra cost.

How do you collect documents from vendors every month?

PaperTight collects recurring documents with Auto-Gen and checklists. An Auto-Gen rule pairs a project, a company and a checklist (for example a Monthly Billing Pack), then opens that vendor’s package automatically on the 1st of every month so the same document set is requested every period without anyone remembering to start it.

Can each subcontractor see only their own documents?

Yes. The client portal is scoped per company — every subcontractor signs in and sees only their own documents and packages, never another company’s files. Your workspace stays the single place where your team reviews and approves everything.

What documents can I collect from subcontractors?

You can collect any recurring paperwork a subcontractor owes: timesheets, salary sheets, invoices, statements of account (SOAs), gate pass and access-card forms, and worker onboarding documents. Permanent files like agreements, purchase orders and ID copies live in the Company Vault, separate from each period’s package.

What happens to a document we reject?

When you reject a document you leave a comment explaining why. The subcontractor sees the reason in their portal and re-submits a corrected file as a new version — the earlier version stays in the history, nothing is overwritten.
