Progress Billing

Progress Billing

Progress billing happens when contractors bill based on how much of the job is accomplished at each interval. If a company has completed 25% of a contract, its total bills to the customer will be equivalent to 25% of the contract value. Its formula is as follows: percentage complete * (contract amount + approved change orders) = amount billed.
