Approve and Sign a Subcontract
Objective
To approve and sign a subcontract after awarding a winning bid.
Background
Because subcontracts are legally enforceable, collecting the appropriate signatures on your contract documents is strongly recommended. Procore customers can choose between two methods for managing the signature process:
- Wet Signature. If you want to collect physical signatures on your commitments, use the Steps below.
- Electronic Signature. If you want to collect digital signatures on your commitments, you can use the DocuSign® integration. For details, see Complete a Commitment Contract with DocuSign®.
Things to Consider
- Required User Permission:
- None
- Additional Information:
- This article details steps that are completed outside of Procore.
Important
- If the contract's creator is using the Procore + DocuSign® integration, you may be asked to digitally sign the contract instead of using the steps below. Contractors and subcontractors who are asked to sign a commitment are responsible for confirming the signature requirements with the contract creator.
