When contractors visit your workplace, it is important to ensure that they are compliant with all safety and security requirements. This can be a challenge, especially if you have a large number of contractors or multiple locations. One way to streamline this process is to connect your contractor management system (CMS) to your visitor management system (VMS).
Some key VMS features and benefits;
- Know who is on site in the event of an evacuation
- Monitor and report on all visitors in your workplace
- Keep your team safe and ease health and safety concerns
Some Key CMS features and benefits;
- Manage contrator profiles
- Manage compliance; certifications, inductions, insurances
- Control access and permissions
Reasons to connect your contractor management system to your visitor management system include;
Improved Compliance
By integrating the two systems, you can ensure that all contractors are checked against your compliance requirements before they are allowed on site. This can include checking for expired insurance, valid training certificates, and other important credentials.
Streamlined Visitor Management Process
When contractors are onboarded in your contractor management system, they can simply scan their QR code or ID card at the front desk to check in. This eliminates the need for manual data entry and makes the check-in process faster and more efficient for both contractors and staff.
Enhanced Security
When contractors are required to check in and out using the visitor management system, you can track their movements throughout your facility and identify any unauthorised access. This can help to prevent security breaches and protect your employees and assets.
Reports and Analytics
For example, you can generate reports on contractor activity, compliance, and time spent on site. This information can be used to improve your contractor management processes, identify areas for improvement, and make better decisions about your workforce.
Reduced Costs
When you automate the contractor management process, you can reduce the amount of time and resources that you need to spend on tasks such as manual data entry, compliance checks, and visitor check-in. This can free up your staff to focus on more important tasks and save your organisation money in the long run.

How to Stop Someone from Signing In Who is Non-Compliant
Let’s say that you have a contractor who has an expired insurance certificate. When they try to check in using the visitor management system, the system will automatically flag them as non-compliant and prevent them from accessing your facility. You can then be notified of the issue and take appropriate action, such as contacting the contractor to remind them to renew their insurance.
