Who it is for

Built for owners, developers, and GCs reviewing construction billing.

Construction payments turn field progress and contract schedules into money. Every pay application is a calculation that should be checked.

Owner reps

Verify progress billing, allowances, and stored-material requests.

Project controls

Track quantities, unit rates, change orders, and retainage.

Finance

Document back-charges and reconcile allowance balances.

Construction terms become pay-app rules

Unit rates, quantities, SOV lines, change orders, retainage, back-charges, allowances, and stored materials are checked.

A pay application can look complete but include the wrong installed quantity or unreconciled allowance.

AllCaps compares the billing line to the contract schedule and supporting project evidence.

When allowance spending exceeds actual cost

The finding shows the allowance, actual cost, and credit back to the owner.

Allowance reconciliation is often delayed until the end of a project, when leverage is lower.

The exception keeps allowance balances current during construction.

Construction billing needs a live contract-control view.

The roll-up shows clean pay apps, change orders under review, and allowance credits.

That keeps project cash flow tied to contract entitlement.

How it works

Three steps. Then it runs continuously.

01

Encode the agreement

We turn the economic terms in the construction subcontracts agreement into rules: rates, thresholds, caps, credits, formulas, and exceptions.

02

Connect the evidence

Invoices, statements, usage files, claim data, settlement reports, and performance records run against those rules as they arrive.

03

Collect what is owed

Green means in line. Anything else is surfaced with the clause, calculation, period, and counterparty-ready support.

Make one construction agreement living and see every pay app checked.

We encode unit rates, schedule of values, change-order rules, retainage, back-charge, allowance, and stored-material terms, then reconcile pay applications.

The first pass
  • One subcontract or construction agreement.
  • Pay applications, SOV, change orders, quantities, and allowance records.
  • Unit-rate, retainage, back-charge, allowance, and stored-material terms encoded.
  • Findings for overbilled quantities, wrong rates, or unreconciled allowances.
