FAQ
What information do you need to prepare the payment report?
Please provide the project budget, work-item list, unit prices, previous payment records, current executed quantities, project schedule if available, and the required reporting format.
Can you prepare a payment application from an existing budget?
Yes. I can organize the original budget, previous progress, current quantities, cumulative progress, payable values, and remaining balance using the information provided.
What is included in the progress control?
Progress control may include previous, current and cumulative quantities, percentages, payable amounts, budget balances, planned versus actual progress, and physical or financial indicators.
Can you create an S-curve?
Yes. The Premium package or diagram extra can include a physical or financial S-curve when suitable schedule, quantity, weighting, or budget information is available.
Do you provide editable files?
Yes. Deliverables may include an organized editable Excel file and a PDF summary report, depending on the selected package.
Can you update an existing payment certificate?
Yes. I can update an existing control sheet or payment certificate using new executed quantities, revised prices, approved additions, or current progress information.
What is considered a revision?
A revision includes minor corrections within the original documents and agreed scope. New budget items, revised drawings, additional periods, or major format changes require a separate quotation.
Do you provide accounting or legal certification?
No. This service covers construction progress, payment and cost-control documentation. Accounting, tax advice, legal claims, contract certification, and engineering approval are not included.
