Progressive billing lets you invoice a large project as work is completed instead of waiting until the entire job is done. Each draw stays tied to the accepted bid, so you and your customer can see what has been billed, what has been paid, and what remains.
Bids & Takeoff
Progressive Billing and Retention
Break a large bid into billable sections, track progress invoices, and manage held retention through final release.
Lessons in this guide
StartStrike completed work and close out cleanly
Closing out (strike, unstrike, close out, and release retention are all covered above) marks the bid done and strikes every remaining open line at once; no jobs or invoices are created by it. Retention is never released automatically, even after the last production invoice, so confirm the contract’s release conditions (final inspection, punch completion, required closeout documents) before you bill it.
