ποΈ Project Milestone Achieved β Taking Over Certificate Granted!
With the Taking Over Certificate now issued, our team at SDS moves into the final financial chapter of the project β the Final Account Settlement Process.
Here's how we close out with precision:
β
Final Account Preparation β Remeasurement, variation valuations, loss & expense, fluctuations, and all contractual adjustments compiled into one comprehensive document.
β
Draft Final Account β A formal statement of the adjusted contract sum submitted for contractor review.
β
Negotiation β Disputed rates, claims, and quantities resolved through structured engagement between both QS teams.
β
Agreed Final Account β Both parties sign off, establishing the definitive contract sum and paving the way for the Final Certificate.
β
Contractor Payment β Final balance settled, retention released, all financial obligations discharged.
β
Project Closeout β Cost reports, records archived, lessons documented, and the client handed a fully reconciled project.
Every shilling accounted for. Every obligation met.
