[ Subcontractor Scorecards ]
A subcontractor's real track record, in one place
Deciding whether to re-engage a subcontractor usually comes down to memory -- was their paperwork ever a problem, were they involved in anything serious -- because that history is scattered across old projects and old conversations. Novato builds a scorecard from what's actually on record: every document and licence across every project, and every incident they've been linked to.
How it works
Open a subcontractor's scorecard
From the Tradies list, for anyone you've worked with.
See their full document and licence history
Every requirement, across every project, with its status -- compliant, non-compliant, or timeline risk -- not just the current one.
See their incident involvement
Every incident they've been linked to since tracking began -- an empty list means genuinely none recorded, not just none this project.
Decide with the real record in front of you
Re-engage, follow up, or flag a concern based on what actually happened, not what you remember.
How this fits Australian WHS compliance
A scorecard is built entirely from records Novato already holds -- documents, verification outcomes, and incidents -- never a subjective rating typed in by a GC. Incident tracking is explicitly dated from when it began, so an empty incident list reads honestly as "none recorded since tracking started," not a false guarantee about anything before that.
Common questions
Is a scorecard a rating I give a subcontractor?
No -- there's no star rating or manual score. It's a factual history: their real document/licence status and incident record, across every project they've worked on with you.
Does it only show their current project?
No -- it shows their document and licence history across every project, so you can see whether an issue is a one-off or a pattern.
What does an empty incident list actually mean?
That no incident has been linked to this subcontractor since incident-to-subcontractor tracking began -- it's shown with that context directly on the page, not presented as a guarantee about anything before that date.
Can a subcontractor see their own scorecard?
A scorecard is a GC-side view for decision-making, not something shared back to the subcontractor directly.
