Introducing Pay: run the money with confidence
Meet Pay, BuildPass finance software for builders. Job costing, bills, pay applications, retainage and cash forecasting in one place, live as the job runs.
The job position shouldn't live in three spreadsheets and someone's memory. Month end today means the accounting platform in one tab, the cost report in a spreadsheet and the claim in another, and a real position that's four weeks out of date.
That's why we built Pay, the finance product in the new BuildPass. It takes the money from budget to bank, in one flow, so you see movement the day it happens.
The budget you priced, tracked live
The estimate you win with in Win becomes the budget the job runs on, on the same cost codes. Budget vs committed vs actual across every line, updated as the job runs, with change orders tracked to the contract.
Commit the costs, not the guesswork
Award packages through buyout, hold the scope as committed cost in subcontracts, and raise purchase orders against the budget that match automatically when the bill lands.
Invoices that code themselves
Upload a bill and it's read, coded to the right cost code and queued for approval. Your team reviews instead of re-typing, and nothing hits the numbers until it's approved. Bills sync with your accounting platform through integrations, so nothing is entered twice.
Claim everything you're owed
Pay applications run against the prime contract and schedule of values, from submitted through certified. Retainage is withheld per application and released on schedule, in both directions, and sub pay applications track the sub side of the money alongside yours. Nothing gets missed at claim time.
See the squeeze before it hits the account
Coming soon to Pay: WIP reporting joins what you've billed to what it's cost per job, and cash forecasting shows where each job and the whole business is heading.
Part of the all-in-one platform
Pay is one stage of the new BuildPass: win the work, pay the trades, build on site and connect it all. The budget starts in Win, the site work that drives the application happens in Build, and Connect ties the numbers to your accounting stack and BuildPass Agent.
Pay is in early access now with builders across North America, Australia and New Zealand. Get early access or book a demo.
