The short answer
Site billing records measured work, materials, labour or subcontractor progress at the site level. Client billing converts the approved contractual progress into a claim or invoice for the client. The two should reconcile through quantities, approved scope, evidence and payment milestones so progress remains transparent.
Why does site billing matter?
Site billing helps the project team understand what has actually been executed and what resources have been consumed. It supports procurement, subcontractor coordination and progress review.
Why does client billing need separate control?
Client billing should follow the contract, payment schedule, approved variations and agreed measurement basis. It should not include unsupported work or unclear claims.
What evidence should support billing?
Use measured quantities, dated photographs, inspection records, approved drawings, delivery documents and signed variation records where relevant to the contract.
Questions to take to your consultation
- Which quantities support this bill?
- Which work is approved for client claim?
- Are variations separated from base scope?
