Frequently asked questions
How does Crewbound fill calls in Des Moines?
Post the call with full terms up front — base rate, OT rate, schedule, per diem, start date. Crewbound ranks credential-verified travelers from every market by mobilization feasibility and terms fit, and shows a routing line and mobilization date for each candidate. You confirm on locked terms and both sides countersign.
What does “terms locked at booking” mean?
The rate, per diem, and schedule in the agreement are immutable once both sides confirm. Changes happen only by countersigned amendment, with full version history visible to both parties. The rate a traveler accepts is the rate they're paid.
Is Crewbound a staffing agency?
No. Crewbound is software. Contractors hire and pay workers directly — $0 hourly markup, ever. Contractor teams pay a flat monthly subscription; workers are always free.
I'm a traveler heading to Des Moines. What does it cost me?
Nothing. Verification is free and your profile is free forever. You see the full terms — rate, per diem, schedule, site requirements — before you commit to mobilize, and those terms are locked before you leave home.
What credentials do Des Moines data center and industrial calls require?
Most calls ask for OSHA 30 and NFPA 70E; fiber and security scopes often want BICSI or NICET, and licensed scopes want the state JW card. Crewbound matches on exactly these credentials and produces a site-readiness badge per worker that you can forward to the GC.
