    Nobody talks about this enough: the follow-up measuring on payment applications.

    The first takeoff on a job gets all the attention. Tool Chest built, colors set, everything organized. Then the project starts moving, and every billing period you’re back in that file trying to figure out what actually got done since last time, without double-counting or missing something that’s half finished.

    I watch this eat more hours than the original estimate ever did, and it usually lands on whoever’s newest on the team since nobody else wants it.

    How do you track progress between billing periods? A personal system you built yourself, a real process your whole team follows, or just one file that keeps getting messier every month?

    Or maybe your takeoff document never gets looked at again after bid day.
