What workforce teams ask about managing contractors at scale.
What is contractor management software?
Contractor management software runs the full lifecycle of a contingent worker: onboarding, classification, document compliance, timesheets, pay, extensions, and redeployment. GorillaWorks keeps all of it on one people profile per worker, shared across every placement and SOW engagement.
How is this different from a VMS?
A VMS is typically the client's tool for managing vendors and approving time. GorillaWorks is the agency's system of record for its own workforce, and it integrates with VMS platforms to pull approved timesheets into pay and billing.
Does it handle 1099 and independent contractor compliance?
Yes. Classification is captured at onboarding and enforced everywhere downstream: the documents collected, the pay treatment applied, and, in Canada, the year-end forms generated (T4). W-2, 1099, T4, and incorporated workers are all supported side by side.
What happens when a contractor is redeployed?
The new placement onboards from the existing profile. Verified documents, classification, banking, skills, and certifications carry over, so redeployment takes minutes and only genuine gaps need filling.
Can I track skills and certifications?
Yes. Skills and certifications live on the worker profile, with expiry monitoring for time-limited credentials, and worker availability is visible when you are staffing the next placement or engagement.
Does it cover both the US and Canada?
Yes. Onboarding, classification, payroll, and compliance rules are applied per jurisdiction across the US and Canada.
