Use case overview
A contractor uploads onboarding documents to pdfFiller or finds corresponding templates in the online library. By adding fields to the documents, a contractor creates fillable templates. The templates are then pre-filled with project-specific data and shared with subcontractors via short links. Subcontractors can then fill out and eSign the forms online from any device, as well as attach any requested documents such as certificates, licenses, and evidence of qualifications. Every submitted document then appears in the contractor’s pdfFiller inbox.

Using pdfFiller has saved us 110 hours per year at $35.00 per hour as far as we can tell. And that was just the beginning of the savings because that time was put to productive, front end, revenue-producing use so the swing was at least triple in addition to what we saved.
