A certificate on file is only the beginning. The real question is whether the evidence satisfies the insurance requirements in the contract.
A growing property management company works with contractors, maintenance providers, suppliers, and tenants across multiple locations. Each relationship carries contractual insurance requirements, but keeping track of those obligations has become increasingly difficult.
Contracts live in shared folders. Certificates of insurance arrive by email. Renewal dates sit in spreadsheets. Employees spend hours requesting documents and trying to determine whether each third party meets the requirements.
The company needs a consistent way to connect what its contracts require with the evidence it receives.
The challenge: documents without a clear compliance picture
Consider a maintenance contractor whose agreement requires $5 million in liability limits and additional insured status.
The contractor submits a certificate showing $1 million in general liability coverage, with no supporting additional insured endorsement. The certificate is saved, and the spreadsheet is marked “received.”
But several questions remain unanswered:
- Is there umbrella or excess coverage that satisfies the required limits?
- Has the required additional insured endorsement been provided?
- Who is responsible for resolving the missing information?
- Will the company know when coverage expires?
The administrative task is complete, but the compliance review is still open. Repeating this process across hundreds of third parties creates delays, inconsistent decisions, and unresolved gaps.
The CertusTrack approach
CertusTrack is designed to bring contractual insurance requirements, supporting documents, and follow-up activity into one connected workflow.
Identify the requirements
The platform helps extract insurance requirements from contracts and organize them into obligations that can be tracked against the appropriate contractor, vendor, tenant, or project.
Collect the supporting evidence
Certificates, endorsements, and other required documents are collected and associated with those obligations, giving reviewers a clearer record of what has been submitted and what remains outstanding.
Flag gaps for review
CertusTrack is designed to compare submitted evidence against the requirements and identify potential issues, such as insufficient documented limits, missing endorsements, or expired coverage. Designated reviewers can investigate exceptions and determine the next action.
Coordinate follow-up
Document requests, reminders, and assigned tasks help teams address outstanding items without relying on scattered email threads and individual spreadsheets.
Monitor ongoing status
Tracking expirations and unresolved exceptions helps the organization maintain visibility after initial onboarding, when policies renew or documents change.
What changes for the user?
In the maintenance contractor example, receiving a certificate would no longer be the endpoint.
The intended workflow would flag the difference between the required limits and the evidence submitted, identify the missing endorsement, and route the outstanding items for follow-up. The reviewer could then request additional documentation before making an approval decision.
That creates practical value for several teams:
The expected business value
For an organization managing a growing network of third parties, CertusTrack’s value is a more manageable, consistent process.
The intended benefits include less time spent chasing documents, clearer ownership of outstanding items, better visibility into potential coverage gaps, and fewer delays caused by discovering missing evidence late in the process.
These benefits should be measured during a pilot using indicators such as staff time per review, time to complete onboarding, outstanding document counts, and the percentage of renewals received before expiration.
Why choose CertusTrack?
Organizations would choose CertusTrack because their responsibility extends beyond collecting certificates. They need to understand what each contract requires, whether the supporting evidence addresses those requirements, and what still needs attention.
CertusTrack is designed to connect those steps—helping people move from disconnected documents to informed, documented compliance decisions.
Turn contractual insurance requirements into actionable, trackable obligations.
