Satellite view of a North Carolina community in winter: dark-roofed houses along looping streets and cul-de-sacs, bare leafless woodland wrapping the lower and right edges of the frame, a small pool and its parking bay left of center, and an apartment block with rows of parked cars beside an ochre pond along the upper edge.

What it costs

Publishing a pool cleaning RFP costs nothing.

VendoRFP charges nothing to ask for work, compare what comes back and award it, however many communities and however many people you put on the account.

At a self-managed community, this is a logbook in the pump room. Each vendor bills you separately, and you pay each one. They all land here, so nothing has to be chased through email.

Next

Publish your pool RFP in about two minutes.

Enter the community address and set the scope. Publishing it takes an account, and an account starts with an application. Insured pool vendors price it per stop or per month. Chemicals are either included or billed separately.

Before you bring it to the board

What boards ask us first.

What does HOAcrew replace?

The insurance-certificate folder, the email chain chasing proposals, the contract PDF nobody can find, the group text with the foreman, and the write-up someone assembles by hand before each board meeting. All five live on one platform.

Five tools become one

Who holds the contract?

You do. You read the proposals side by side, pick one, and sign with that vendor yourself.

What happens when a company’s insurance lapses?

Your board gets an email fourteen days before the date, and again if it lapses. From the day it lapses, that vendor cannot submit proposals at your community until the document is current.

Insurance verified, and tracked throughout

How does the board vote on a proposal?

From the dashboard. Put the proposals to a vote and every board member gets their own link. Nobody has to create an account. The tally and the record are there when it closes.

Do we have to switch vendors?

No. Invite the vendor you already use. They get an account, upload their COI, and their visits get documented like everyone else’s.

What does it cost the association?

Nothing to publish an RFP or collect proposals. VendoRFP charges nothing to ask for work, compare what comes back and award it, however many communities and however many people you put on the account. The price a vendor proposed is the price you pay that vendor. Sales tax is its own line, and paying by credit card adds a card-processing line.

Can the manager run it instead of the board?

Yes. Managers get their own role across every community they run, with per-community permissions for board members. Read-only is one of them.

What do the vendors get out of it?

One worklist, an employee app for check-ins and photo proof, and their own invoicing.
