Manage Insurance Documents & Compliance Statuses for a Commitment

Background

Procore Pay adds a 'Compliance' tab to a project's commitment contracts. The controls in this tab work with the 'Insurance Compliant' setting in the Payment Requirements tab of the Company level Payments tool. Together, they let your team review and track your downstream collaborator's insurance certificates to ensure that your payee's required insurance information is valid (i.e., not expired) before releasing invoice payments with Procore Pay.

 With Procore Pay, there are two (2) methods for managing insurance compliance for the 'Contract Company' associated with a commitment. Your team can choose to use one (1) of these methods:

• Manage Insurance Compliance Status with the Commitments Tool. If you simply want to track whether a commitment is compliant with insurance requirements or not, users can manually update the insurance compliance status by clicking the Edit button and manually inputting an update in the Status and Description fields. With this method, the Insurance card's 'Compliance Status' options are Compliant, Not Compliant, and Not Required. 
  OR
• Manage Insurance Documents and Compliance Statuses with the Directory Tool. If your company uses the Company and Project level Directory tools to add insurance information for your contractors, subcontractors, and vendors, Procore automatically manages the insurance compliance status of each document for you. With this method, users can simply click the Add Insurance button and choose the Company Insurance or Project Insurance option to add a new insurance record to the 'Contract Company' vendor record in the Company or Project level Directory tool. With this method, the Insurance card's statuses are limited to Compliant or Not Compliant.

Manage Insurance Compliance Status with the Commitments Tool

If your company simply wants to track whether a commitment is compliant with insurance requirements or not, users with the appropriate permissions can input the commitment's status directly in the Commitments tool. 

1. Navigate to the Project level Commitments tool. 
2. Under the Contracts tab, locate the commitment to work with.
3. Click the Number link to open it. 
4. Click the Compliance tab. 
5. In the Insurance card, click the Edit button. 

    Note

   When managing insurance compliance status with the Commitments tool, you do not use the Add Insurance button. The add button is only used when managing insurance documents and compliance status with the Directory tool. See Manage Insurance Documents and Compliance Status with the Directory Tool.

   
6. In the Compliance Status drop-down list, select one of the following statuses:
   • Compliant. If the commitment contract is in compliance with its insurance requirements, select this option. 
   • Not Compliant. If the commitment contract is NOT in compliance with its insurance requirements, select this option. 
   • Not Required. If tracking compliance status is not required for this commitment, select this option. Selecting this option has no effect on the commitment's overall insurance compliance status. 
7. Enter any information about the insurance compliance status in the Description field. 
   
   
    
8. Click Save. 
   This saves the insurance compliance status and logs your entry in the commitment's Change History tab. You can change the status or description at any time using the Edit button. 

    Tip

   Want to switch from managing insurance compliance with the Commitments tool to managing insurance documents and compliance status with the Directory tools? If you initially manage insurance compliance status with the Commitments tool and later decide to manage insurance documents and compliance statuses with the Directory tools, any previous compliance status changes are saved in the commitment's Change History tab. See View the Change History of a Commitment. After you switch, insurance changes are logged in the Company or Project level Directory tool's Change History tab. 

Manage Insurance Documents and Compliance Statuses with the Directory Tools

If your company adds insurance documents for your contractors, subcontractors, and vendors in the Company and/or Project Directory tools, Procore automatically manages the insurance compliance status of each document for you.

1. Navigate to the Project level Commitments tool. 
2. Under the Contracts tab, locate the commitment to work with.
3. Click the Number link to open it.
4.  In the commitment, click the Compliance tab.
5. Scroll to the Insurance card. 
6. Choose from these options:

    Note

   When managing insurance information with the Directory tools, actions are always logged in the Change History tab of the corresponding Directory tool instead of the commitment's Change History tab. 
   • Add Insurance
   • View Insurance
   • Edit Insurance
   • Remove Insurance

Add Insurance

To add new insurance information, choose the appropriate option:

When adding the first insurance document...	For subsequent insurance documents...

After you choose a menu option, Procore launches the Company or Project level Directory tool and opens the company profile of the 'Contract Company' to the Insurance tab. You can then follow the steps in:

• Add Insurance to a Company Record in the Company Directory
• Add Project Insurance to a Company Record in the Project Directory

View Insurance

If the 'Contract Company' on the commitment has any existing insurance information stored in the company profile of the Directory tools, that insurance information appears as rows in the table in the commitment's Insurance card.
