Client Onboarding for Site Preparation

The Client Onboarding workflow helps site preparation contractors transition clients smoothly into the project phase. It includes confirming scope, reviewing site conditions, establishing timelines, and clarifying communication expectations. By standardizing this workflow, contractors reduce confusion, improve professionalism, and build stronger client relationships. Clients benefit from transparency and timely communication, while sales teams gain organization and accountability. With this onboarding system in place, site prep companies can improve satisfaction, strengthen trust, and ensure each project begins on a strong, professional foundation.
