About this gig

Are subcontractor pay applications piling up in your inbox while someone checks the math by hand?


Pay apps arrive in different formats, retainage gets tracked in side spreadsheets, and one math error can delay approval or cause a payment dispute. I build a pay application workflow that logs every submission, checks the numbers, tracks retainage by subcontractor, and routes clean applications for approval.


WHAT YOU GET

  • Pay app intake log (Google Sheets or Airtable)
  • Automatic math checks: totals, prior billings, retainage
  • Flags for applications that don't add up
  • Retainage ledger per subcontractor and project
  • Approval routing to your PM or accountant
  • Email alerts to your team
  • pay application
  • retainage tracking


HOW IT WORKS

1. You send a sample pay app and your retainage rules

2. We confirm the checks and approval steps

3. I build and test the workflow in n8n

4. You review it and I adjust within your revisions

5. I deliver the working workflow and documentation


Note: This automates checks and tracking. A person approves every payment. It isn't accounting, legal or lien advice.


Message me first with a sample pay app (fake data is fine) and I'll confirm the right package.
