iGyro Feature: eSign
Electronic Signing for Builders — Contracts, Variations & Approvals Built Into iGyro
Send documents to clients, subcontractors, or other recipients for electronic signature. Signed documents are automatically returned and stored in iGyro — no manual filing, no chasing paperwork, and no “where did that PDF go?” moments.
- Built into your workflow: create, send, track and store against the job
- Builder-ready templates: reuse contracts, variations and trade agreements
- Multiple signers: clients, directors, partners, trades — all in one workflow
- Optional SMS OTP: add an extra identity check for high-value documents
Stop Chasing Signatures and Re-Filing Documents
Builder paperwork doesn’t stop at contract signing. Variations, client approvals, subcontractor agreements, and internal sign-offs can slow projects down when they’re managed across email threads, PDFs and shared drives.
iGyro eSign helps you move faster by keeping the entire signing process inside the system you already use to manage jobs — and by automatically storing completed documents where they belong.
Not Another Signing Tool — eSign That Lives Inside Your Job Workflow
Most electronic signature tools are standalone. That means extra steps: export a document, upload it, chase signatures, download the signed copy, then remember to file it back to the job.
With iGyro eSign you can:
- Assign a document to a job so client and job details can be populated where needed
- Automatically store signed files against the job for a complete audit trail
- Track signature status without jumping between systems
- Standardise recurring paperwork using templates and roles
If you don’t assign a document to a job, you can still use eSign — you’ll receive an email when signing is complete, and you can upload the file manually if needed.
What Can Builders Sign Electronically?
iGyro eSign is designed for real construction workflows — not generic “sign anything” scenarios. Use it for:
- Building contracts and client agreements
- Variations / change orders and scope approvals
- Subcontractor agreements and trade confirmations
- Client selections approvals (where you need a signed record)
- Internal approvals and sign-offs across your team

How iGyro eSign Works
1) Create a document (blank or from a template)
Start from scratch or choose a template. Optionally assign the document to a job so iGyro can keep everything organised and linked to the right place.
2) Add recipients and choose authentication
Add one or more recipients (clients, subcontractors, other stakeholders). For higher-trust signing, you can enable SMS OTP authentication to verify signer identity.
3) Upload one or multiple files
Drag-and-drop your files (or browse to upload). You can include multiple documents in the same workflow. Add signature fields, date fields and initials for each recipient, including “replicate to all pages” for initials on longer documents.
4) Set signing order (optional)
Send to all recipients at once, or switch on sequential signing to enforce a specific signing order.
5) Send, track and complete
Once sent, you can see who has not viewed, who is in progress, and when the document is completed. When signing is finished, the signed copy is automatically returned and stored in iGyro (and filed against the job if assigned).
Templates for Contracts, Variations and Repeat Builder Paperwork
Templates help you send common construction documents faster and with fewer mistakes. Create a template once, then reuse it across jobs with consistent roles and fields.
Template examples
- Variation templates (client + builder signing)
- Trade agreements (subcontractor signing)
- Standard client approvals (multiple signers)
Flexible template controls
- Assign roles (e.g., Client 1, Client 2, Builder)
- Allow senders to edit fields when sending
- Allow adding/removing recipients
- Allow replacing placeholder documents with job-specific files
Secure Signing Options (Including SMS OTP)
For higher-value or legally sensitive documents, you can enable SMS OTP authentication. This adds an extra verification step for signers and supports stronger internal processes.
Note: Always follow your own legal and compliance requirements for document signing and record-keeping.
Benefits for Builders and Admin Teams

- Fewer errors: job assignment keeps documents linked to the right project
- Faster approvals: clients and trades can sign from anywhere
- Clear visibility: track status from not viewed → in progress → completed

eSign FAQs for Builders
Can building contracts be signed electronically?
In many cases, yes — electronic signatures are widely used in business. Your exact requirements depend on the document type, jurisdiction and your legal advice.
Can I send a document to multiple signers?
Yes. Add multiple recipients and choose whether they sign at the same time or in a sequential signing order.
Can I send multiple documents in one signing request?
Yes. Upload multiple files into the same workflow, then configure signature/initial/date fields as needed.

Signed documents are automatically returned and stored in iGyro. If the document is assigned to a job, it’s filed against that job for easy retrieval.
