See the whole payment cycle
Lime & Level follows the payment process from preparation and submission through certification and recorded receipt. Each stage has its own dates and values, helping the team identify where an application stands and what action is required.
Supporting records remain connected to the application rather than dispersed across spreadsheets and correspondence.
Do not confuse valuation with cash
The value applied for, the amount certified and the payment received are different facts. Retention can create another difference. Keeping those figures separate provides a more accurate view of the payment position and helps explain movement to project stakeholders.
- Track application, certificate and payment dates
- Record gross value, retention and net position
- Keep certification separate from cash received
- Connect receipts to the project cash outlook
Keep deadlines and ownership visible
Payment workflows depend on timely preparation, review, issue and follow-up. Visible dates and accountable owners help the team manage the next action before it becomes an avoidable delay.
Use the same position in reporting
Controlled application records can flow into branded reporting, reducing the risk that the review pack, cash forecast and working register present different versions of the same position.
