The business need
Why teams need measurement & payment
Commercial teams struggle to substantiate claims when measured quantities are separated from approved scope, site evidence, and previous certificates.
What acSys helps you do
Measurement & Payment Certification
Coordinate measurement submissions and certification approvals using shared project, document, and workflow records. Dimensional calculations, BOQ ceiling rules, interim payment certificates (IPCs), retention, advance recovery, and invoicing are scoped commercial extensions or ERP integrations.
Key capabilities
What is included in measurement & payment?
01
BOQ-linked measurement submissions
Record length, width, depth, unit, location, inspection reference, supporting evidence, and reviewer responsibility.
02
Quantity validation and duplicate review
Agree rounding, cumulative quantities, previous claims, variations, and authorized overrides before configuring calculation controls.
03
Interim payment review and certification
Route submissions from contractor QS to engineer and client reviewers. Configure retention, recovery, and valuation rules to the contract.
