About

BrightCIS is a cloud-based software solution designed to handle every element of the Construction Industry Scheme (CIS) process for contractors and subcontractors, offering secure tools to manage subcontractor details, verify registrations with HMRC, calculate CIS deductions automatically, pay subcontractors (including fast 90-second payment processing via Modulr) and generate official “Payment and Deduction Statements” as well as year-end statements with minimal effort. The system supports CSV import of subcontractor lists, batch processing of multiple contractor returns, submission of monthly CIS300 returns in a few clicks, full audit-trail visibility with timestamped activities, and unlimited user access from any device so teams can collaborate in real time. Because it’s fully cloud-native, BrightCIS receives automatic updates to stay aligned with the latest HMRC regulations, reduces manual error-prone calculations, and centralizes subcontractor onboarding and verification.
