Subcontractor Valuations for Irish Contractors

Certify what was built. Pay what was certified. Prove both.

Assess every application against the actual subcontract lines: contracted, previously certified, claimed this month, side by side. Sign-offs stay on the record, retention is tracked automatically, and delivered value lands on the cost position the same day.

Disputes settled by the record, not by memory

For Irish contractors, subcontractor valuations decide when packages get paid. Archdesk captures what was built with photos and quantities, verifies it, and feeds the certified value into valuations and cost control, so every application is backed by dated records and the package position is current the day the certificate is signed.

Every claim has evidence behind it

Daily work reports carry photo documentation and quantity verification, so a percent-complete argument ends at the record instead of running for weeks.

Certified value hits cost control same day

Approved work feeds budget-versus-actual, completion variance analysis and over-budget alerts on every package, the day it is certified.

Retention handled, not remembered

Retention is calculated automatically per package, and retention payout requests are handled in the same place as the applications they relate to.

Quality signed off before it is paid

Inspection checklists, defect tracking and sign-offs confirm the work meets specification before certification, with non-conformances on the record.

Applications assessed against the subcontract itself

Contracted, certified to date, claimed this period: side by side on the actual subcontract lines, with variations feeding straight into the application and the full history attached.

Frequently Asked Questions: Subcontractor Valuations

What is subcontractor work report software?

It turns site progress into a payment record for the main contractor: subcontractors report progress digitally with photos and quantities attached, the work is verified, and the certified value feeds valuations and cost control. Applications, evidence and sign-offs sit in one place, on one record, so disputes are settled by the record rather than by memory.

How are subcontractor valuations assessed?

Every application is assessed against the actual subcontract lines: contracted, previously certified and claimed this period, side by side. Variations feed straight into the application, and the full history stays attached, so a percent-complete argument ends at the record.

How is retention handled on subcontractor packages?

Retention is calculated automatically inside the payment calculation, not on a side spreadsheet, and retention payout requests are handled in the same place as the applications they relate to, so release is claimed when it falls due.

How is claimed progress verified before payment?

Daily work reports carry photo documentation and quantity verification, and quality checklists confirm the work meets specification before it is certified. Defects are tracked to closure and non-conformances go on the record with the sign-off, so what gets paid is what was checked.

When does certified value reach cost control?

The same day it is certified. Approved work feeds budget-versus-actual per cost code and package, with automated over-budget alerts and cost forecasting, so overruns surface while there is still time to act, not at closeout.

Can the certified position be read across every package?

Yes. Applications, certificates and retention sit on one data model, so the certified and paid position reads per package and across the portfolio from the same live records.
