20 minutes. No software pitch. Just your process.

You agreed on a price. You should be charged that price.

Materials arrive, equipment is hired, the site keeps moving. When the purchase order is raised after the invoice, teams copy the invoice price into the PO. The control has already failed, and the wrong rate passes approval unnoticed.

Somewhere between the contract and the invoice, the agreed price stops being true.
Invoice received The control has already failed.

Industry context 3,472 construction companies entered external administration or had a controller appointed in 2025-26, more than any other Australian industry.

We spent years inside finance teams finding these pricing gaps by hand. Then we tested the problem properly: 8,300 invoices, 28 suppliers, $13M of spend across three organisations.

Supplier invoices, rate schedules and audit markings arranged for a detailed accounts payable review.
$207K+ identified for recovery
7 of 7 spend categories non-compliant
40% lower cost per invoice

Four weeks. One clear answer.

Start with the contracts and invoices you already have. Nothing installed.

Two construction commercial professionals compare supplier documents in a project controls office.

20 minutes with Nitin mapping how contracts, purchase orders and supplier invoices move through your business.

Five places the gap hides.

A commercial manager and site supervisor review supplier charges beside active plant and fuel equipment.

Hourly, daily and weekly charges matched to the signed rate card.

Every surcharge checked for agreement, timing and calculation.

Whether purchase orders are raised early enough to be a real control.

Labour and trade rates traced to the commercial terms.

Duplicate fees, mobilisation and quiet price movements surfaced.

A trail of commercial documents receding into a dark construction project office.

The gap gets harder to explain.

Every retrospective purchase order and unverified increase removes another piece of the original pricing evidence. By the time it shows up in project margin or an audit, finance is reconstructing decisions across thousands of invoices.
