The work is done, but nobody can say what each site is owed.
What ERP Infra does: Bills raised per site, with claimed, certified, received and outstanding side by side, and retention due for release.
Why it happens
A contractor pays for material, labour and machines first and is paid by the client later. Between the two sit the certified amount, deductions, and retention held until the end of the defect period.
When bills are tracked in a spreadsheet per client, the gap between what was claimed and what was certified is easy to lose, and retention that has fallen due is easy to forget.
How ERP Infra handles it
Bills raised per site
Each client bill belongs to a site, so receivables are seen site by site and rolled up per project.
Claimed against certified
The amount you claimed and the amount the client certified sit side by side, bill by bill.
Received and outstanding
What has come in, what is still due, and for how many days.
Retention due for release
Retention held on each bill is tracked, with the amount now due back to you.
Measured in the pilot
Days outstanding per site, retention due for release, and claimed against certified. Shown with your numbers, not ours.
Questions people ask
- What is retention money in a construction contract?
- It is a share of each bill that the client holds back as security, usually released at completion or after the defect liability period. ERP Infra tracks retention held per bill and shows when it becomes due.
- Can ERP Infra chase clients for payment?
- It shows what is outstanding, for how long, and against which site and bill, so the person chasing has the facts in front of them.
