01 — Labor Procurement System

One place to request construction temp labor.

SLM gives contractors centralized labor requests across every supplier — jobsites, trades, approvals, and billing — so your team is not managing temp labor through texts, spreadsheets, and agency follow-ups.

Centralized Labor Requests Across Every Supplier
The Problem

Labor requests should not live in someone's text messages.

Most contractors are still requesting temp labor through calls, emails, texts, spreadsheets, and whoever happens to remember which agency was contacted last.

That creates a messy handoff. The superintendent needs workers. The coordinator is chasing suppliers. The PM wants to know what was approved. Finance wants the job code right. Nobody has one clean place to see what happened.

Sound Familiar?

If your labor requests start in five different places, your labor system is already broken.

"We needed 15 electricians on one site and 6 helpers on another. The requests were in texts and emails, nobody knew which agencies had been contacted, and the job was already behind before anyone showed up."

What Changes

Every labor request follows the same path.

  • One request created for the right jobsite, trade, shift, and start date
  • One place to select approved staffing suppliers
  • One record of what was requested, approved, filled, and billed
  • One team making sure nothing gets lost between the field and the agency
The SLM Way

Give the field a simple way to request labor. Give leadership a clean way to control it.

With SLM, labor requests are created in one system and routed to the right suppliers with the jobsite details, trade requirements, quantities, rates, notes, and timing already attached.

Your account team can support the process when the field is moving fast, but the request still lives in the system. That means cleaner supplier communication, fewer missed details, better reporting, and less "who asked for what?" nonsense.
