BOOK FREE DEMOWhat is Progress Claim Submission Under Construction Contracts?
Progress claim submission is the formal process of requesting payment for completed work stages in construction projects. This critical process involves documenting completed work, calculating payment amounts, submitting claims through proper channels, and managing approval workflows.
In Australia, progress claims must comply with specific legal requirements under the Security of Payment Acts in each state. The submission process typically includes detailed work schedules, supporting documentation, and adherence to strict timeframes. Poor management of this process can lead to cash flow problems, payment delays, and costly disputes.
For builders and contractors, efficient progress claim submission is essential for maintaining healthy cash flow and project momentum. However, manual processes often result in errors, delays, and compliance issues that can seriously impact business operations.
Common Problems Builders Face with Progress Claim Submissions
Manual Processing Delays
Many builders still rely on spreadsheets and manual processes to prepare and submit progress claims. This approach is time-consuming, error-prone, and often results in missed submission deadlines that can delay payments by weeks.
Approval Workflow Complications
Tracking claims through complex approval chains involving project managers, quantity surveyors, and clients becomes chaotic without proper systems. Claims get lost, approvals are delayed, and follow-up becomes a constant challenge.
Documentation and Compliance Issues
Australian construction law requires specific documentation and formatting for progress claims. Manual preparation often leads to incomplete submissions, compliance failures, and rejected claims that must be resubmitted.
How Our Progress Claim Submission Software Solves These Problems
Automated Claim Preparation
Our software automatically generates progress claims based on completed work milestones, contract schedules, and approved variations. This reduces preparation time by up to 75% whilst ensuring accuracy and completeness.
Streamlined Approval Workflows
Built-in claim approval workflow automation routes submissions to the right people at the right time. Real-time tracking shows exactly where each claim sits in the approval process, enabling proactive follow-up and faster payments.
Compliance Assurance
The platform ensures all progress claims meet Australian Security of Payment Act requirements with automated compliance checking, proper formatting, and complete documentation packages. This reduces rejections and speeds up approvals.
Real-Time Progress Tracking
Monitor all active claims from a centralised dashboard, track response times, and identify bottlenecks before they impact cash flow. Automated reminders keep approvals moving and payments flowing.
