On previous contracts as part of the tender process I have used a matrix to show clearly the documentation required. This can be adapted depending upon the size of the project, contractor etc. Additionally, in polite terms, it makes it clear that if the matrix requirements are not met then the contr...

If the contractor can't provide the paperwork and details you require, can they be relied upon to carry out the work you require in a manner acceptable to you? Depending upon the size of the contract you may also want to go as deeply as looking at their days since last LTI, minutes of safety meeting...
