Maintain Workforce

Australia's B2B workforce exchange for construction

You won the work. Now crew it.

Winning the job is half of it. Maintain Workforce is the exchange where construction companies share skilled crews with each other directly, so won work never sits waiting on labour and idle crews never sit waiting on work.

The same day, the same city: crews idle here, shortages there.

Won work at risk

The job is signed and the crew to deliver it does not exist in-house this month. Winning it was never the hard part.

Idle crews

Wages run while nothing is billed. Good tradespeople get stood down, and many of them never come back.

Recruitment delays

Hiring is built for permanent roles. It cannot source, screen and start a crew for a three-week block.

Labour hire margins

The middleman solves the shortage but takes a margin and owns the relationship. You rent strangers.

QuoteMax wins the work. Maintain Workforce crews it.

Two products from the same group, either side of the same job. You can use one without the other; most companies meet us at whichever end is hurting this month.

  1. 01

    Win it

    QuoteMax

    Quote faster, and get paid to turn up. QuoteMax turns an estimate into a validated quote and a sales order, so the work you chase is work that converts.

    Live product
  2. 02

    Crew it

    Maintain Workforce

    The job lands and the crew to deliver it does not exist in-house this month. The exchange finds it inside a verified network of construction companies, not a labour hire desk.

    Pilot open
  3. 03

    Deliver it

    Both

    The work goes out on time, the relationship stays yours, and the crew goes back to its own employer. Next month the roles reverse and you supply the capacity.

    Roadmap integration

QuoteMax and Maintain Workforce are separate products today. A won job does not yet surface its own labour gap on the exchange; that integration is roadmap, and we will not pretend otherwise.

From short-staffed to crewed, in three steps.

01

List one thing

Register your company with its ABN, then post either a labour need or your available crew: trade, location, headcount, dates. Verification is manual and fast.

02

See your counterpart

Browse verified companies filtered by trade, location and availability. The other side of your problem is usually already on the board.

03

Request the introduction

A person on our team reviews both companies and connects you directly. You contract with each other; the workforce stays with its employer.

A board of verified companies, not a feed of ads.

Four trades, South East Queensland.

We open where verified supply already exists, so the board is alive on day one. Civil and commercial construction follow.

ROOF

Roofing

Metal, tile and membrane crews for residential and commercial roofs.

PLUMB

Plumbing

Rough-in, fit-off and maintenance plumbers across build stages.

CARP

Carpentry

Formwork, framing and fix carpenters, from slab to handover.

ELEC

Electrical

Rough-in, fit-off and testing electricians for every stage.

What this is, said by what it is not.

Not a labour hire company

Direct, company to company

We never employ or on-hire workers and take no margin on their time. Crews stay with their employer; you deal with their business, not a middleman.

Not a recruitment agency

Built for temporary capacity

No placement fees, no permanent hires. A crew for three weeks is a normal transaction here, not an exception recruiters cannot price.

Not a job board

A closed, verified network

Nothing is advertised to the public. Every company on the board holds a verified ABN, the licence its trade requires and current insurance.

Not a gig marketplace

Businesses, never individuals

The match is between two companies that can work together again next month. We never list a person, and you never pick one off a shelf.

Asked before joining.

  • No. We never employ or on-hire workers and we take no margin on their time. We introduce two construction companies; they contract directly and the workforce stays on its own employer's books. [Structure under legal review before launch.]

  • Registered construction businesses only, never individuals. You need an ABN, the licence your trade requires and current insurance. The pilot covers roofing, plumbing, carpentry and electrical across South East Queensland.

  • A person verifies every company before it appears on the board: ABN, licence, insurance and the qualifications of the people it puts forward. Companies carry a record on the exchange, and one that sends poor crews stops getting introductions.

  • QuoteMax is our sister product and helps construction companies win work. Maintain Workforce helps them deliver it. They are separate products you can use on their own; the automated handoff between them is roadmap, not shipped.

  • The pilot is free. We do not charge until the exchange is proving real matches; pricing after that is [confirmed before any charging starts].

  • You request one. A person on our team reviews both companies and connects you directly, usually the same day. No bots, no automated matching in v1.

  • Your company appears on the board only after verification, and only verified members see it. Contact details are shared when both sides agree to an introduction.

Get on the board.

Registration takes a few minutes: company, ABN, trades, and which side you are on this month. Verification is manual, and the pilot is free.
