Subcontractors looking to record their experiences with General Contractors now have the ability to leave reviews within COMPASS.

When leaving a review on a GC in COMPASS, the results of the review WILL NOT be shared with the General Contractor. Other subcontractors will not see details of your individual review, but will see an aggregated score of all reviews submitted on each General Contractor.

When reviewing a General Contractor, the following questions and formats are used:

  1. Star Rating questions - rate on a scale of 1-5 stars (or N/A if the question is not applicable) for each of the following questions:

    1. Scheduling and Change Management

      1. Adherence to project schedule and milestones

      2. Coordination with subcontractors and suppliers to avoid schedule disruptions

      1. Communication with subcontractors during procurement

      2. Management and communication with subcontractors on-site

      3. Transparency in contractual commitments, both verbal and written agreements

      4. Effectiveness of GC’s technology choices

    3. Payment Practices

      1. Speed and fairness in resolving payment issues

      2. If contract contains “Pay-if-Paid”, flexiblility in working around the provision

      3. Ease of obtaining final payment after completion of your work

    4. Job Site Professionalism

      1. Oversight of work quality

      2. Enforcement of a clean and safe work environment

      3. Qualification and capability of other subcontractors selected on-site
