Frequently asked questions

Why should contractors use purchase orders?

POs create a binding record of agreed materials, prices, and quantities before delivery. This prevents billing surprises, helps with job costing, and provides documentation for client invoicing.

What should a contractor PO include?

List materials with specifications (size, grade, brand), quantities, unit prices, the delivery site address, required delivery date, and any project or job number for tracking.

Can I use a PO for subcontractor services?

POs are typically for goods. For subcontractor services, a subcontract agreement or scoped work order is more appropriate, although some businesses use POs for straightforward service engagements.
