Contra-charge in a payment notice to withdrawn or settled deduction
We take off your hands: checking each payment or pay-less notice, searching the job record for evidence and drafting the defence or escalation.
You get: a validity check on each notice, evidence from your job record and a draft defence for your commercial manager to approve, with escalation letters if needed.

The problem
Main contractors knock money off our payments and we can't find the evidence to fight it.
How the steps join up
It starts when: a main contractor's payment or pay-less notice deducts a contra-charge for cleaning, damage, attendance or delay.
Check incoming payment and pay-less notices for validity, timing and content
Your team checks and decides at this step.
Index every job's emails, diaries, photos and instructions in one place
Build the defence to a main contractor's contra-charge from the job record
Your team checks and decides at this step.
Build a dated chronology of events for a claim or dispute
Answer under-certification and pay less notices with the evidence attached
Your team checks and decides at this step.
Route commercial settlements and concessions through approval limits with a full record
Draft escalation letters for overdue certified sums, statutory interest and suspension rights
Your team checks and decides at this step.
What you end up with: The notice is tested for validity, the job record is searched, a defence goes back with evidence within days, any settlement is approved and unpaid sums are escalated correctly.
Who signs it off: Your commercial manager approves responses and your directors approve settlements and escalation.
