Digital protocols for trade contractors
Installation protocol, performance evidence and acceptance – on site.
Trade contractors document installation, service and defects daily for GC or end customer. deep.rent bundles installation protocol, site reports and digital trade checklists in one flow – with photos, signature and PDF before leaving site.
Trades need clear evidence – especially on third-party sites
Without installation protocol and performance evidence, questions arise on scope and quality. A site documentation app with checklists and photos reduces claims and speeds release by site manager or GC.
