It doesn't matter if you're framing, welding, insulating, excavating, doing fire protection, tile, flooring, glass, structural steel, or demolition. If you're a subcontractor, you share the same three problems with every other sub on every jobsite in the country:
1. You do extra work that never gets invoiced.
Change orders happen in every trade. The scope shifts, the GC adds something, another trade damages your work and you fix it. The extra work gets done because you're a professional and you're on site. But the paperwork to bill for it? That waits until you get back to the office. Sometimes it waits forever.
STUDD makes sure every job gets billed. Templates per GC, per job type. Change orders captured the same day, not the same month.
2. GCs pay you when they feel like it.
Net-30 becomes net-60 becomes net-90. The GC's PM doesn't return your calls. You're financing their project with your cash flow and you don't even realize how much it's costing you until you run the numbers.
This is not a plumbing problem or an electrical problem. This is a subcontractor problem. Every trade gets slow-paid. STUDD tracks every invoice by GC, fires automated follow-ups on a cadence, and keeps lien-rights timers running so you never lose leverage.
3. One lapsed document and you're off the job.
Every sub carries compliance paperwork. COIs, W-9s, workers' comp certificates, contractor licenses, bonding, trade-specific certifications. The specifics vary by trade, but the problem is identical: each document has its own renewal date, its own issuing authority, and its own consequence for lapsing. Miss one and the GC pulls you off site.
STUDD tracks every document in one place. Renewal alerts hit your phone before anything lapses. Not a filing cabinet. Not a spreadsheet. A system that watches the dates so you don't have to.
