How different industries use SignAndGo.
The tools are the same for everyone, but each industry leans on different ones. An accountant cares about Xero filing, a builder about getting a variation signed on site, an orchard about onboarding a crew before the season starts. Here is how SignAndGo tends to be set up across New Zealand sectors, with the envelope each one usually builds first.
Accounting and bookkeeping
Practices send engagement letters, authority forms for acting with IRD and year-end sign-offs to clients who are rarely in the office. Templates with a Client role keep the wording consistent across the practice. With Xero connected, signed documents can be filed into Xero automatically and new signers added as contacts, which removes a manual step after every engagement.
First envelope to build: the engagement letter and authority form together, client first, partner countersigning in order.
Property and real estate
Agents and property managers send several documents at once: an agreement, a disclosure and a checklist. Multi-document envelopes keep them together, and signing all at once suits a couple buying or renting together. Tick boxes and Yes/No choices capture answers such as whether a chattel is included. Property managers often send the Tenancy Services forms they use, such as a tenancy agreement and a bond lodgement form, in the same envelope.

Trades and construction
Quotes, variations and subcontract terms need signing quickly, often from a ute. Signers open the link on a phone with nothing to install. Upload fields let a subcontractor attach a certificate or licence as they sign, and approvers let a project manager check terms before they go out. A variation sent the same afternoon it is agreed on site avoids the argument about it three months later.
First envelope to build: a one-page variation with the client's signature, a date and a text field for the agreed change.
Health and allied health
Clinics send intake forms and consent forms before an appointment so the session starts on time. Text fields collect the details you need, and review-only envelopes cover the information sheets a patient confirms they have received. If summaries are switched on, a patient can read a plain-language overview of a long form before signing.

Horticulture, farming and seasonal work
An orchard or vineyard taking on a crew sends the same pack many times in a few weeks. A template with the agreement, an IR330 and a KS2 KiwiSaver deduction form means each new worker only needs their name and email entered. Workers sign on their phones from the bunkhouse, and a reminder chases anyone who has not finished before the first shift.

Early childhood and education
Centres and kura collect enrolment forms, permission slips and policy acknowledgements from whānau who are busy at drop-off. Yes/No choices handle permissions such as photos on the centre's page, an upload field takes a copy of an immunisation certificate, and signing all at once lets both parents complete the form on their own phones.

Charities and community groups
Committees and trusts collect volunteer agreements, grant acceptances and resolutions from members spread across a region. Signing all at once gets several trustees through a resolution without waiting for the next meeting, and the audit trail records who signed and when.
Building your own industry pack
Whatever the sector, the pattern is the same: list the documents you send most, group the ones that always travel together into one envelope, decide who signs in what order, and save the result as a template. Start with the pack that causes the most chasing, then add the next. Within a few weeks most teams have their regular paperwork covered. SignAndGo does not supply industry wording, so each pack carries your own documents.
Frequently asked questions
- Is there a separate version for my industry?
- No. Everyone uses the same SignAndGo, and you set up templates and fields to suit your documents.
- Do you supply industry document templates?
- No. You build templates from your own documents, so they carry your wording.
- Can field workers sign without a computer?
- Yes. The signing link works in any browser on a phone or tablet.
- Can two parents or two tenants sign the same form?
- Yes. Add each as a signer with their own fields, and choose all at once so neither waits for the other.
- Can a contractor attach their certificate while signing?
- Yes. Add a file upload field and they attach it as they work through the document.
