Contract vs. billing
Original terms, approved scope, invoices and change orders compared to what was billed and recognized.
Construction Cash Recovery
Stuck AR and retainage should be reconciled against the actual project record.
SteeleCoast reviews the supplied contract, invoices, payment history, deductions, change orders and closeout documents to identify what is verified, what is unresolved and whether there is an evidence-backed next step.
What we look at.
The first pass is not a collection promise. It is a structured comparison of the commercial records that should explain the balance.
Payments & deductions
Payment records, retainage, backcharges and other deductions tied back to available supporting documentation.
Closeout status
Closeout documents, punch items and final-account records reviewed for unresolved administrative blockers.
Best first cases.
Old open balance
A completed or substantially completed project still carries a material receivable that is difficult to explain from the ledger alone.
Retainage drag
Retainage remains outstanding and the team needs a clean evidence trail of what has and has not been satisfied.
Deduction confusion
The amount paid does not clearly reconcile to invoices, approved changes and documented deductions.
SteeleCoast is not a law firm or collection agency and does not make legal entitlement determinations. Legal disputes, lien rights, claim strategy and regulated collection activity require appropriate counsel or licensed professionals.
