What’s Holding Back
Compliance Today?
HMRC is turning up the heat on subcontractor fraud - and construction businesses are firmly in the spotlight. From April 2026, changes to the Construction Industry Scheme (CIS) aren’t just tweaking processes, it’s tightening the lens on how businesses verify, monitor, and govern their subcontractor relationships.
Gross Payment Status
Businesses linked to suspected fraud risk losing GPS for extended periods, with serious implications for cashflow stability and commercial positioning.
Director Accountability Increases
Commercial decisions around subcontractor engagement now carry personal exposure where warning signs are missed. CIS is no longer just a finance task — it’s a governance issue.
Liability Moves Up the Supply Chain
Engaging fraudulent labour suppliers could result in liability for unpaid tax, with penalties of up to 30%. Subcontractor onboarding is now part of your wider financial control framework.
