Applications & Payment

Getting paid is a process. We run it like one.

An application done properly isn't a spreadsheet sent on the 25th. It's a measured, evidenced, correctly-formatted document that lands on the contract date — and a reconciliation a fortnight later that catches the shortfall while there's still time to do something about it.

What's included

The full payment cycle, every month

The application, built properly
  • Measure updated from your site records and drawings — traced, never estimated
  • Variations attached with their instructions and evidence
  • Drafted in your format and the contract's structure
  • With you for approval four working days before it's due
The notices, watched
  • Payment notices checked against the contract mechanism
  • Pay-less notices checked for validity and timing
  • Deadlines diarised from your subcontract, not from memory
  • Anything defective challenged in writing, in time
The certificate, reconciled
  • Every certificate checked line-by-line against the application
  • Shortfalls queried in writing while notice periods are still open
  • Retention tracked — held amounts, release dates, and the chase
  • A one-page monthly report showing exactly where the cash is

The monthly report

One page. Ninety seconds. The whole picture.

  1. 1Applied this month, against last month
  2. 2Certified against applied — and any shortfall, with its query status
  3. 3Cash position: applied, certified, received, outstanding
  4. 4Retention held, and the next release date
  5. 5Variations submitted, agreed, and outstanding
  6. 6What needs you — never more than three items
  7. 7What we found that you weren't looking for

Line 7 is the reason the report gets read. Unclaimed variations, retention past its release date, a notice that never came — if it's costing you money quietly, it goes on the page loudly.
