Seven Ways Tinubu Streamlines Contract Bond Issuance & Management

Surety professionals know the frustration all too well: chasing signatures, re-entering duplicate data, hunting through old forms, and watching profitable deals grind to a halt. These inefficiencies don't just waste time—they directly impact your bottom line.

Tinubu transforms the contract bond process, enabling you to issue and manage bonds with less administrative burden, fewer errors, and more time to focus on business growth. Here's how we streamline operations in seven key areas.

 

1. Never Waste Time Classifying Bonds Again

 

The Problem

Brokers spend valuable time—and risk costly errors—manually determining and locating the correct bond type among dozens of options: bid bonds, performance bonds, payment bonds, commercial license bonds, and more. This manual classification process creates bottlenecks, increases rejection rates, and delays deal completion.

The Solution

Tinubu's automated bond classification instantly identifies the required bond type and adapts workflows accordingly. Whether you're handling a municipal bridge project requiring a performance bond or processing a contractor's commercial license bond application, our intelligent system ensures the right information is collected from the start. Smart templates automatically adjust based on project specifications, eliminating guesswork and accelerating processing time.

 

2. Stop Juggling Multiple Systems

 

The Problem

Brokers are forced to juggle multiple disconnected systems—CRMs, spreadsheets, email platforms, and various carrier portals. These data silos create inefficiencies at every turn: duplicate data entry, misplaced files, version control issues, and team frustration when critical information lives in different places.

The Solution

Tinubu consolidates all bond-related data into a single, comprehensive platform where bonds can be issued, tracked, and managed throughout their entire lifecycle. Set up a client once, and watch as subsidiaries, principals, and bond workflows automatically populate for future transactions.
Role-based dashboards provide tailored views for agents, principals, and carriers.
Admin view manages agencies, clients, carriers, and bond workflows. 
Agent view is a simplified interface for handling bond requests and issuance, and monitoring existing bonds.
Carriers can track internal data, project notes, and manage their electronic power of attorney issuance. 
The platform syncs with EPIC, Sagitta, and other AMS platforms

 

3. 30,000+ Bond Forms at Your Fingertips

 

The Problem

Every minute spent digging through files, looking online for forms or working out which version of a bond form is correct is a minute you’re not serving clients. And if the form is outdated or noncompliant, the result can be rejection, rework, and frustrated stakeholders. Finding the right bond form is time-consuming and can require a lengthy manual search. 

The Solution

With Tinubu, the right form is always at your fingertips. Our industry-leading digital library contains over 30,000 constantly updated forms — the largest and most comprehensive in Surety. You can issue a bond in as little as 60 seconds, confident you’re using the most recent, compliant version.
The library covers every major commercial and contract bond type, includes multiple versions under different SAA codes for faster searches, and even houses carrier-specific forms with custom branding. You can mark favorites for quick access, and upload your own forms for a complete, centralized resource.

 

4. Eliminate Manual Data Entry Mistakes

 

The Problem

Manual form filling is time-consuming and error-prone. Missing fields and outdated information can further delay what is already a slow process by leading to rejections and rework.

The Solution

With Tinubu, client data is auto populated, based on profiles stored in the system, including financial histories and past projects. This eliminates redundant data entry — once a client is in the system, their information auto-fills for all future bonds — and it reduces the possibility of errors.
Tinubu includes mandatory field enforcement, which prevents submission errors. Auto-validation flags missing information before submission and ensures required fields are completed. Agents using Tinubu have reported a 98% reduction in document rejections compared to manual processes.

 

5. Unburden Yourself: Shift the Admin Workload 

 

The Problem

Agents do a considerable amount of basic administrative tasks, including contacting (and re-contacting) clients for documents, data, status updates, and signatures.

The Solution

Shift the workload. Tinubu’s client portal allows principals to directly submit bond requests and upload financial documents. Principals can also track their applications in real time without contacting agents or brokers. This shifts administrative work from Surety professionals to principals while maintaining agent oversight through private fields that are only for internal use.

 

6. Less Big Math Problems, More Big Bond Issuance 

 

The Problem

For high-value bonds, co-Surety agreements are often essential — but manually dividing risk between carriers can be slow, complicated, and prone to costly errors.

The Solution

For high-value or high-risk bonds, TSBA enables automatic bond splitting across carriers for co-Surety. Carrier-specific workflows, tailored documentation, and built-in compliance tracking ensure every party gets the right disclosures, while manual work and mistakes are dramatically reduced.

 

7. Renew Bonds Without the Hassle

 

The Problem

Manual renewals and modifications are a drain — chasing signatures, recalculating premiums and dates, updating records, and worrying about lapses. All that extra admin doesn’t just slow you down, it eats into margins.

The Solution

Tinubu automates post-issuance management so renewals and changes take minutes, not hours. One-click renewals with auto-adjusted dates and premiums are available with digital seals or signatures for legally binding updates. Audit trails also document every change. The result: fewer delays, lower costs, and less lapses.

Tinubu isn’t just another software platform—it’s a comprehensive rethink of Surety workflows. By automating manual tasks, enforcing compliance, and centralizing data, it helps brokers issue bonds faster; agents to slash admin work; and carriers to do more business with better margins.
