Sound Familiar?

The paperwork is costing you money.

Most builders run their business on memory and goodwill. Until something goes wrong.

💸

Verbal Variations

The client says "just do it" — then disputes it at payment time. No written variation, no money.

📋

Disputed Progress Claims

Your claim comes back short or rejected. Without records under the BIF Act, you're fighting with nothing.

🤝

Handshake Subcontracts

The subbies start, do half the job and walk. No agreement, no scope of works, nothing to enforce.

💰

Cashflow Surprises

Month five and you're in deficit. Without a cashflow forecast, you never see it coming.

Sound Familiar?

You're doing the work. Someone else is keeping the money.

Subcontractors lose thousands every year to late payments, back charges and disputes they're not prepared for.

💸

Late or Short Payments

Without a valid SOIP Act claim, you have no statutory rights to fast adjudication.

📋

Back Charges Out of Nowhere

A back charge lands with no warning and gets deducted from your claim. No paper trail, no defence.

🔒

Retention You Never See Again

Retention gets held at PC and quietly forgotten. Without a tracker and release request, it never comes back.

📝

Signing Contracts Blind

Some clauses are unenforceable. Others are landmines you won't notice until it's too late.

Complete File List

30 templates. Every stage of every job.

From signing the subcontract to releasing final retention — everything in one pack.

Common Questions

Everything you need to know.

What software do I need?

Microsoft Excel and Word. Standard formulas — no macros, no plugins. Google Sheets not recommended.

What's the difference between a payment claim and an invoice?

A payment claim under the BIF Act 2017 triggers statutory rights — the head contractor must respond within 15 business days or face adjudication. An invoice does not.

Do I need a different ITP for each trade?

Yes — that's why they're sold separately at $7 each. A waterproofing ITP has completely different hold points to a concrete ITP.

Is this legal advice?

No — BuildDesk templates are professional business tools, not legal advice. For formal disputes, engage a construction lawyer.

Can I use it on more than one job?

Yes — one purchase covers your business on every job. One licence = one business entity.

What if something isn't right?

Email support@builddesk.au — if there's an error we'll fix it and send a corrected file at no cost.
