Vendor Portal for Home Builders

Give your subs what they need. Without the back-and-forth.

Ressio's vendor portal gives every subcontractor and supplier access to their schedules, specs, drawings, and documents — via magic link, no login required. They have what they need. You stop being the middleman.

A portal your subs will actually open

Vendor portals fail when they require an account nobody sets up. Ressio's vendor portal uses magic links — subs tap and they're in. No friction. No calls about how to log in.

No account. No login. No "can you resend the invite?" calls.

Magic link access — no account, no login, no calls

When you assign a sub to a task or share a document, they receive an email notification with a magic link. One tap and they're in their vendor portal — seeing their schedule, their scope, and the documents relevant to them. Not everything. Just theirs.

  • Magic link in email — sub taps and sees their portal
  • No Ressio account required — no password, no setup
  • Works on any phone or browser
  • Subs can confirm task acceptance from the notification

Subs see only their scope — never the whole project.

Tasks and schedule — subs see what's theirs

Assigned schedule tasks appear in the vendor portal with dates, descriptions, and any attached files. Subs see their scope, their timeline, and what's expected — without seeing the full project schedule or anyone else's work. They can confirm acceptance and send messages directly on their task.

  • Assigned tasks visible in vendor portal with dates and files
  • Subs see only their assigned scope — not the full project
  • Task acceptance confirmation from the portal
  • Task-level messaging between sub and project team

Documents and compliance — view, update, and upload

Subs can view, update, and upload compliance documents — certificates of insurance, licenses, and expiration dates — directly from their vendor portal. When a COI is about to expire, the sub receives an expiry reminder with a magic link. They upload the new certificate. You get notified. No chasing.

  • Subs view and upload compliance docs from their portal
  • COI expiry reminder sent automatically via magic link
  • Sub uploads renewal — contractor notified on completion
  • Expiration dates tracked and visible in vendor management
Plans & specsCurrent version

Framing plan Current v4

No more building off a superseded set — the current version is always what they see.

Specs and drawings — current version always accessible

Share specs and drawings with vendors through the vendor portal. Tag files to appear in the Plan Room and share via QR code. Subs access the current version from the job site — no calling to ask for the latest revision, no working from a printout from three months ago.

  • Specs visible in vendor portal — vendor-tagged items only
  • Plan Room accessible via QR code from site
  • Current version always displayed — revisions update automatically
  • Internal specs remain hidden from vendors

From vendor assignment to portal access in three steps

01

Assign the vendor to tasks and documents

Add the vendor to your project. Assign them to schedule tasks. Tag specs and files as vendor-visible. Their portal is configured — they just need the link.

02

Notify — they're in

Send a notification. The vendor receives an email with a magic link. They tap it and see their tasks, specs, and documents — no login, no setup, no support call.

03

They confirm, communicate, and stay current

Subs confirm task acceptance. Message the project team in context. Upload their COI when it expires. You see it all in Ressio — without picking up the phone.

Vendor portal connected to your whole workflow

The vendor portal surfaces exactly what your subs need from the broader project — tasks from the schedule, files from file management, specs from specifications, and COIs from compliance tracking.
