Running subs usually comes with broader admin work: estimates, invoices, change orders, site logs, cost tracking, handover docs.

→ Contractor Ops Master Pack ($19) — 8-tool library covering the full contractor admin workflow (not including this Subcontractor Payment Tracker — that's standalone).

If you're paying subs, you're probably also quoting, invoicing, and tracking costs. Solo for all 8 admin tools = $31.92 — Master Pack price is $19.
