Construction Subcontractor Application Form

Finding reliable construction subcontractors shouldn't mean wading through incomplete applications and missing certifications. This Construction Subcontractor Application Form template gives general contractors and construction companies a professional, thorough way to evaluate potential subcontractors—capturing everything from trade specialties and crew availability to insurance documentation and safety records in one streamlined submission.

Built for construction project managers, site supervisors, and procurement teams, this template helps you qualify subcontractors quickly and consistently. Collect trade-specific details, verify licensing and insurance, review safety training certificates, and gather project references all in one place. Conditional logic ensures applicants only see questions relevant to their trade, while file upload fields make it simple to collect W-9s, certificates of insurance, and OSHA documentation.

Paperform's flexible design means you can brand this form to match your company, embed it on your vendor portal, or send it as a standalone link to prospective subs. Forms sync seamlessly with your existing tools—push new applications into your CRM, log details in Airtable or Google Sheets, or trigger approval workflows in project management software.

Need to move faster once applications come in? Connect this form to Stepper to automate your subcontractor onboarding workflow. Route high-priority applications to your procurement team, send follow-up requests for missing documents, update your vendor database, and notify site managers when a new sub is approved—all without manual back-and-forth.

With payment integrations built in, you can even collect application fees if your company requires pre-qualification deposits. And because Paperform is SOC 2 Type II compliant, you can trust that sensitive business information and certifications are handled securely.

Whether you're managing a commercial build, residential development, or infrastructure project, this template gives you a faster, more professional way to source and vet the subcontractors your projects depend on.
