Before Paying a Contractor.

Do not rely on a progress percentage alone. Compare measured or evidenced work, cumulative payment, approved variations, retention, advance recovery, materials on site, defects and outstanding tests.

Use the Progress & Payment Check for screening, then request a Second Opinion Before Payment if the next transfer is material.

What to do next

Use the relevant PROJECTCHECK check or consultation for an initial review. For material commercial, structural or contractual decisions, use the appropriate professional service.
