- Building QuoteCloud since 2013
With QuoteCloud an HR consultancy collects the health-check questionnaire in a Forms block, writes the report with a rating and finding per area, and prices each recommended fix as an optional line. The client ticks the fixes they want, signs and pays a deposit. The assessment is yours; QuoteCloud gives no legal advice.

A drawing of a fictional HR health check for Larchmont Dental Group by a fictional consultancy, Ashgrove People & Payroll. On the left, the completed questionnaire on a clipboard. In the middle, six areas as columns whose height shows the consultant's rating: leave records and payroll set-up are good, contracts, onboarding and performance need work, and workplace policies are a gap. On the right, the remediation quote with one optional line per fix, joined to its area by a route. Beside it, a card lists each finding and its fix: employment contracts refresh $1,850 and policy handbook $2,400, both ticked; onboarding pack $950 and managers' workshop $1,650 as options; $4,675.00 including tax, with a 50% deposit of $2,337.50 on signing.

Ratings are Ashgrove's assessment against the client's local employment obligations, from the questionnaire and a document review. They are general HR guidance, never a certificate, a pass or fail, or legal advice. Fictional sample data.

Why it works
The assessment is yours. The decision is theirs.
QuoteCloud carries your questionnaire, your rating scale and your fix price list. Your consultant makes the judgement; the client decides what to fix, in the same document.

From the questionnaire to a deposit on the fixes.
- 1

- 3
Rate each area
Rate each area and write the finding, starting from your findings library.

Ticked, signed, paid
The client ticks the fixes, signs and pays the deposit; the work is booked.
HR audit report questions, answered
Can the client fill in the HR questionnaire inside the audit document?
Yes. QuoteCloud's Forms block puts a form inside the document, so the client answers your health-check questions in the same document that later carries the report and the quote. Keep the questions to roles, processes and headcounts. The Forms block is on Essentials and up.
How do we show a rating for each area?
Build the report section into your audit template: each area with your rating scale, such as good, needs work or gap, and the finding in your words. Keep approved finding wording in your content library so every consultant starts from the same text.
Can the client choose which fixes to buy?
Yes. Put each recommended fix in an optional group of the price table. The client ticks the fixes they want, the total updates, and they sign for exactly those. A deposit can be taken on signing as a percentage or a fixed amount.
Is the audit a compliance certificate or legal advice?
No. The ratings and findings are your consultancy's assessment, written by you. QuoteCloud carries the document; it doesn't assess compliance or give legal advice. Say in the report what it is based on and where specialist advice is needed.
Can our team be told when the questionnaire is completed?
Yes. Tracking shows when the document is opened and acted on, and Zapier's Form Submitted on Document trigger can send the answers on, for example to a task board or a channel. Zapier is on Essentials and up.
Can an AI assistant draft the audit report?
With QuoteCloud's MCP service, on Essentials and up, an AI assistant can be set up to draft the report from the completed questionnaire, your template and your findings library, as a draft a consultant reviews. Nothing is sent without a person.
