Track contractual and statutory requirements applicable to each project.
Track certificate dates and applicable release deadlines.
Track lien/claim deadlines.
Track required statutory declarations, WCB clearances, lien documentation and other release requirements.
Proactively follow up with customers/GCs regarding outstanding holdbacks.
Reconcile holdback balances.
Monitor expected release dates and actual receipts.
Escalate overdue, disputed or high-risk holdbacks.
Coordinate final holdback release and project closeout.

Follow up with customers/GCs regarding billing and holdbacks.
Escalate project financial risks and disputes.
Recommend corrections to project financial information.
Accounting treatment and material accounting decisions remain with the Controller. Material financial risks and cash-flow implications are escalated to the CFO / Finance Director.
