Overview

Manage.Management surfaces Checkatrade inside the Supplier Network so users can combine external supplier discovery with their own trusted supplier records. This keeps supplier research closer to the maintenance and operational workflows that need it.

Key Benefits

Verified Tradespeople

Search for suppliers with review and verification context before adding them to your shortlist.

Trusted supplier list

Keep your own approved or preferred suppliers alongside external discovery.

Building-aware maintenance workflow

Supplier discovery sits close to the issue and maintenance workflows that usually trigger it.

Portfolio support

Management-company users can maintain trusted supplier records across the buildings they manage.

How It Works

1

Open Supplier Network

Directors, residents, and management users who have access can open Supplier Network from the sidebar.
2

Use the two main views

The product separates Trusted Suppliers from Find Tradespeople, so you can switch between your saved network and external discovery.
3

Search with building context

Supplier discovery can use building information such as postcode or address context to make search results more relevant.
4

Build your long-term supplier list

Add suppliers you trust so future maintenance work can start from your own network rather than a fresh search each time.

What the current product clearly supports

Store known suppliers, search within your list, and keep a reusable network for future operational work.
Search externally through the Checkatrade-connected view when you need a new supplier rather than an existing contact.
Portfolio users can search, filter, and organise supplier records across multiple buildings.

Good public-facing guidance

Start from the maintenance need

Supplier discovery is most useful when tied to a live issue, repair, or planned work item.

Save your preferred suppliers

Turn one-off discovery into a reusable supplier network for the building or portfolio.

Check role and building context

What you can see may vary by user role, selected building, and whether supplier features are enabled.

Avoid overstating the workflow

This public page documents supplier discovery and trusted-list management, not every commercial arrangement or downstream procurement step.
If you do not see Supplier Network in your sidebar, the feature may not be enabled for your role or organisation.
