Over the years, Sabre Industries onboarded several subcontractors at various levels of scale to execute their operations. At any given point of time, they had close to 400 subcontractors working for them. Such a substantial number led to significant logistical challenges, which became more pronounced as the processes were manually executed. For starters, the volume of documentation for prequalification and regulation of processes; in the form of master service agreements (MSAs), certificates of insurance (COIs), and purchase orders (POs), among others; was immense. Secondly, the entirety of the documentation required close monitoring to detect crucial issues such as suppliers with no MSAs and insurance renewals, and consequently, suppliers issued POs without proper documentation to approve them. From subcontractor audits to document mailing, monitoring, and maintenance, the processes were manual in nature and overseen by an in-house team. The team was finding it difficult to run the processes for such a vast subcontractor network.
