1099 & Contractor Reporting for Construction Bookkeepers with Foundation
Run 1099 & contractor reporting on autopilot inside Foundation.
The Problem
January 31 1099 deadlines catch every Construction Accounting firm off-guard — W-9s are missing, vendor records are inconsistent, and e-file rejections cascade.
What We Build in Foundation
AI identifies 1099-eligible vendors from Sage 100 Contractor, chases missing W-9s, prepares 1099-NEC and 1099-MISC filings, and submits to the IRS — January 31 becomes a non-event. Purpose-built for teams running Foundation — uses the native API or agent integration so nothing leaves the system of record.
Foundation Integration Approach
Audit your Foundation configuration
We map the specific Foundation objects, custom fields, and workflows the automation needs to touch for your construction accounting practice.
Build on the Foundation API or agent
Integration happens inside Foundation — no data leaves the system, no parallel tool for your team to learn, no license changes.
Human-in-the-loop handoff
Every automation routes exceptions back to a human in Foundation with enough context to act — AI handles the 80%, your team owns the judgment calls.
