Gap assessments and reviews
Prequalification readiness review for ISNetworld, Avetta and ComplyWorks
Also called: Contractor prequalification gap assessment
A prequalification readiness review checks your safety program against what ISNetworld, Avetta or ComplyWorks and your client will ask for, before you submit. You get a list of what is missing and what to change, so the submission is not sent back.
Quoted per site. Call 1-800-440-6650 to talk to a safety expert.
Who does the work: Building and auditing safety programs for companies across Western Canada since 2008.

How does it work?
Scoping questions
A short questionnaire of facts: sites, headcount, fleet size, who your customer is and what they asked for. We never ask "do you comply". That is our job to find out.
Secure upload link
You get a private link with a named list of the documents we need, so nobody guesses what to send. Upload from any device.
Desk review before we arrive
We read every document before the site visit, so field time is spent checking your records against the work, not reading binders.
Field day
We walk the site, talk with workers and supervisors, and check what the records say against what is actually happening.
Scored report and debrief
A scored report with a prioritized gap list, the reference for each gap, and a practical fix. We walk you through it and answer questions.
What does it not cover?
Not account management. If you want us to run the account for you, see contractor management.
Not a promise of a grade. The platform and your client decide; we make sure what you send is complete and accurate.
