Automated Restoration Subcontractor Coordination

Every morning, WebRun opens Albi, reviews subcontractor tasks scheduled for today and tomorrow, checks each trade against your confirmed-schedule list in Google Sheets, flags any unconfirmed or at-risk subs, and posts your project manager a Slack summary with a clear action list.

In short

How do I automatically track and coordinate subcontractors across restoration jobs?

WebRun opens Albi every morning, pulls every subcontractor task scheduled for today and tomorrow, and checks each trade against your confirmation log in Google Sheets. It posts your project manager a Slack summary with confirmed trades listed and unconfirmed or at-risk tasks flagged, so scheduling gaps are visible before the work day begins.

  • Unconfirmed subcontractor tasks surface before the work day starts, not after a no-show
  • Project managers review one Slack list instead of manually cross-checking Albi and a schedule sheet
  • Reassignments made overnight appear correctly in the morning digest automatically

Questions, answered

Does it contact subcontractors directly to confirm their schedule?

No. WebRun posts the schedule summary and flags unconfirmed trades to your project manager in Slack. Your team handles the confirmation calls or messages from there.

How do I mark a subcontractor as confirmed?

Update the confirmation status in the Google Sheet. WebRun reads it on every run, so the sub moves from unconfirmed to confirmed in the next Slack digest automatically.

What if a task was reassigned to a different sub in Albi overnight?

WebRun reads Albi fresh each morning, so any reassignments made overnight appear correctly in the morning Slack summary.
