Buildforce is a new type of temporary staffing provider for electrical, mechanical, and plumbing subcontractors in commercial construction. In addition to a recruiting and account management team with decades of construction staffing experience, we have a technology team who since 2019 has developed the technology that sets Buildforce apart from other staffing agencies by helping contractors access qualified construction workers faster, simpler, and with more visibility than any traditional staffing agency could provide. To really over-simplify things, think “Uber for construction workers”.
Contractors pay Buildforce the temporary workers’ wages plus a markup agreed to prior to beginning our partnership. The markup on worker wages is typically in the 40% to 50% range and depends on the market. Buildforce provides an invoice on a weekly basis.
Buildforce provides the same temporary staffing services and similar pricing model as traditional staffing. We distinguish ourselves from traditional staffing however by the quality of our workforce as well as by the speed, simplicity, and visibility we are able to give our contractor partners through our technology.
Buildforce sources workers via referrals from existing workers, trade school partnerships, and via online channels. We developed our skills assessment process with participation from accredited trade school administrators and MEP licensed business owners. We also background check and employment verify all workers on our platform.
In our main metro service areas, Buildforce can typically fulfill a request for MEP workers within 24 hours. However, the more lead time our trade partners can give us for their manpower needs, the higher certainty we have about making a high-quality placement.
Buildforce guarantees the quality of our workforce or your money back. If you find a worker through Buildforce and determine they won’t be a fit on your project within the first 8 hours, you can terminate their engagement and we won’t invoice you for those first 8 hours.
