Project-Neutral by Design

Payment periods, retention, advance recovery, valuation rules, price adjustment, approval limits and final-account requirements must be adapted to the executed contract and project procedures.

Important Commercial Principle

Applied ≠ Assessed ≠ Certified ≠ Paid.

Commercial exposure does not automatically establish contractual entitlement. Certified debt, disputed claims, proposed deductions and contingent exposure should remain separate until properly assessed and reconciled.
