Prompt Payment and Subcontractors

 

Learn why prompt payments issues are a concern in construction projects.

Subcontractors and suppliers often supply materials and labor to construction projects with the risk they will not be paid for their efforts. These parties typically have contracts with the general contractor (or a major subcontractor) and often face obstacles to payment. General contractors may refuse to pay until they are paid by the owner, may go bankrupt during the work, or may withhold payment because of disputes over work performed by the subcontractor. This white paper reviews remedies that legislature has developed including stop notice and the payment bond and discusses progress payments and retention and prompt payment issues.
