SAFETY & INSURANCE RECORDS

Have the supporting records ready when they are needed.

Explore People & Safety for crew and compliance records, and BDO’s insurance certificate tracking for policy dates, renewal history and missing evidence. Date-based insurance packets gather the matching certificates, policy register and coverage-gap report for review.

BEFORE YOU CHOOSE

Questions about your workflow.

Does BDO include HVAC load calculations or service diagnostics?

This page covers contractor operations for installation projects. It does not promise load calculations, equipment diagnostics or a dedicated maintenance-agreement system. Bring those requirements to the walkthrough so the fit is clear.

How does BDO work with QuickBooks?

BDO prepares approved records for QuickBooks Online or QuickBooks Desktop through Web Connector. Supported transfers are confirmed during onboarding, tested and activated with your approval. BDO does not replace your accounting software.

Can I see the workflow before signing up?

Yes. The website’s interactive demo uses a fictional company and clears changes when you reload or reset it. For a review of your own process, request a walkthrough with Craig.
