Video: Module Overview |
Lucidity Contractor can be used as part of a Contractor Onboarding process that includes employee induction, plant registration, and entry and recording of licences and certificates. The system manages insurances, pre-qualifications and other key documents and can be used to generate a preferred suppliers register and share performance and status. Contractors can be self-managed or managed by the organisation's team members.

Getting Started |
The Contractor Onboarding QRG differentiates the tasks of the contractor representative (from the contracting company) to that of the contractor manager (internal employee responsible for the management of contractors). It illustrates how, if desired, the contractor representative can be solely responsible for ensuring each subcontractor completes an online induction, their relevant licences and tickets are uploaded and all company documents are uploaded. Then the contractor manager is only responsible for final document validation only, limiting internal administrative burden.

Managing Contractor Onboarding Many |
...
Lucidity Software modules can be utilised together to manage the full life cycle of companies, contractors and sub-contractors. Lucidity aims to streamline this process and, where appropriate, contractor representatives (administrators from the external company) can be given access to the system to manage their own documents and subcontractors, lightening the administrative burden for the organisation. |
...
Refer to the Using Lucidity to Manage Contractor Onboarding user guide for more details. |
By accessing Lucidity Contractor, contractors can assign a representative who is responsible for uploading and managing their own documents.
There are two different roles which can be assigned to contractor representatives, one allowing them to only submit documents required (as deemed by the organisation) or the other which allows them to submit additional documentation above the standard requirements.

Contractor Accounts must have Scoping Applied It is important that accounts created for contractors are scoped, to ensure that they can only access their own company records. If unsure, it is best to test the account to ensure that the correct access has been created prior to sending the details to the contractor for them to log in. |

The Contractor manager role may not always be assigned to managers within the business but is more a management of the system role, often given to those who are responsible for managing certain contractor companies. Managers will be able to manage all aspects of contractors and their documents, including reporting, but will be unable to delete them. With correct scoping applied, they

will only be able to view specified contractors.
Managers will generally have permissions to:
View and edit contractor company details, including company classification
View contractor employees, including training records
View and approve contractor documents

The Menu and Tab options relevant for managers are:
Contractors Menu

Retaining System Integrity Only the administrator has the permission to manage master data such as managed lists. |
...
It is recommended that the number of administrators per instance of Lucidity Software is kept to a minimum to retain integrity and consistency across the system configuration and to avoid duplication. It is a worthwhile exercise to create a standard set of guidelines that all new master data entered must follow. |
NAVIGATION
The menu and tab options available will vary between each user, dependent upon their permissions and access levels. Navigation between most pages within Lucidity Software is very similar.
