For hiring organisations

All your agencies, one list.

If your sites run on agency labour, most of the admin is joining things up: three portals, a spreadsheet, and an invoice you cannot easily check. Bonim puts the hours, the spend and the suppliers in one place, and does the compliance checks before the shift.

It is free for hirers. More on that below.

What you get

  • All your agencies in one list

    Friday’s hours from every agency you use, in one place, ready to approve. Your site managers stop logging into three different portals and chasing the fourth by email.

  • You can see where people clocked in

    Every clock-in records whether the worker was on site at the time. It is on the timesheet before you approve it, not something you take on trust and check later.

  • Budgets that hold

    Set a purchase order with a limit and a cost centre. Approved work draws it down as you go, and when it would go over, the approval stops. You find out on the day, not at month end.

  • Know who your suppliers are

    Insurance, Companies House, VAT, REC or APSCo membership, GLA licence, Sentinel sponsorship — held against each agency and kept up to date, instead of a folder of PDFs from whenever they were onboarded.

  • See what you asked for and what turned up

    What you requested, which agencies took it on, how many each promised, and how many actually arrived. If you are going to be short, you can see it while there is still time to fix it.

The checks happen before the shift

Compliance audits are useful, and they tell you about last month. We do the checking when somebody is booked, so a problem stops the booking there and then.

  • An out-of-date card stops the booking going through.
  • A rail turn that would break the rest rules is flagged before it is booked.
  • The 12-week AWR clock counts from week one, per site, so equal-treatment costs are something you plan for, not something you get billed for.
  • Right to work is checked once and kept, with the evidence behind it.

It is free for you

The agencies pay for Bonim, and you do not. There is no fee, no percentage of your spend, and nothing that depends on us finding savings in your suppliers’ rates.

The catch, and it is a real one: this works best when the agencies you use are on it too. If they are not, we are happy to talk to them.

Two honest notes

  • We are early. We are working with a small number of hirers while we get this right, so you would be one of the first. We will show you it working instead of showing you a client list.
  • This is software, not an outsourced team. Your people approve the hours, using something that makes it quick. If what you want is somebody else to run the process for you, that is a different kind of company.

Have a look with your own hours

The quickest way to see if this is useful is a week of your real timesheets, from whichever agencies you use now.
