AR software built for construction.
Progress billing. Retainage. GC payment cascades. Able Collect understands how construction AR actually works.
The challenges
GC payment cascades
You invoice the GC. The GC waits for the owner. Reality says 60–90 days.
Retainage tracking
5–10% sits in retainage. Tracking release conditions is a spreadsheet nightmare.
Back-charge disputes
GC deducts $15K for “damage” you didn’t cause. Invoice stuck for weeks.
Project close-out delays
Final payment requires punch list, lien waivers, documentation. Every missing piece is another week.
