Builders, Budgets, and Beers · Stop Guessing Your Margin with Jeremy Sloane · 11 Feb 2026 podcast

I was like, this doesn't, something's out of whack.

I don't know what it is, but something's out of whack.

And my wife can attest to this because I think I spent 12 to 14 nights at the office till 10, 11, midnight, walking out of here in the dead of night, cross-eyed.

re rebuilding 16 months of of pay apps throughout that project to figure out what the hell was going on and it wasn't that anything was massively wrong but it was money was miscoded we had overbilled slightly underbilled slightly and it just the numbers weren't following what we had

originally put together as contracts and uh with the owner and then subcontractor agreements like it was hard to track the the subcontractor agreements to completion right so they bill 85 they show 85 complete on something that they were only 50 complete on and we would build to the client and they eventually caught up or there were you know 10 change orders that were in there from the subcontractor that we didn't actually issue as change like it was just a whole bunch totally

paperwork it wasn't that the numbers were out of whack i think we were actually after i went through all of it i think we were actually under billed to the client by like four grand and this is on like a nine million dollar job right so like we were we were really really close right

But what I learned through that two to three week period was you have to know your numbers.

Yeah.

You have got to know as a construction individual where your money is going, because every subcontractor writes it and bills it differently.

And every GC bills it differently to a client.

And it's all about presentation.

But you get lost in that presentation.

So I will give my adaptive plug here, which is basically what has been enormously helpful to us is we have tried to get subcontractors to bill us on the AIA G702, G703 doc because it is the easiest, cleanest way to track billing of completion on a job.

Subs don't know how to fill it out.

It's just not, we get so many different versions of that document, which we created for them.

We give them the Excel spreadsheet and we say, fill in your schedule of values, fill it every month, blah, blah, blah.

My bookkeeper rebuilds it every single month for these, for these guys.

Well, you know, it's just, it's just time, right?

It's just, it's like, if you only have one job to do, it's not that, it's not that big of a deal, but when you got 10 or five big projects, it's like, it's a lot, it's very time consuming.

Of course, we're trying to bill out all of our jobs at the same week of every month.
