About
WebContractor
Find out more about WebContractor, our history, award wins and most importantly, the people that make us unique.
Our history
WebContractor first launched in 2016 and was developed by OpenECX to respond to the construction industry's need to comply with prompt payment of subcontractors and the provisions of the UK Construction Act and Irelands’ Construction Contracts Act.
Developed by our team of construction industry and software development veterans, the platform grew quickly, and we secured some of the most recognisable names in the industry as customers.
In 2021, to build on this success, we secured significant new investment to take the platform to the next stage of its development and the WebContractor Ltd company was formed.
The new company is focused solely on the development and enhancement of the WebContractor business and software, expanding the team to improve the service we provide to our customers, with new team members in support, development, account management, sales, and marketing (read more about them below).
We’re award winners!
WebContractor is an award-winning platform that has been recognised (along with our customers) at multiple industry awards for its approach to managing the subcontractor Application for Payment process, and for the benefits it has for the customers that use it.
