Protect Your Payments is a workshop for the NSW and QLD building and construction industry.
In these tough financial times, it has become increasingly important for construction companies to recover your payments in full and on time.
Dates and Locations

Have you included this line on all your invoices?
'This is a claim under the Building and Construction Industry (Security of) Payment Act'.
Then you are NOT following the Act properly and may not be entitled to have your claims paid.
Why?? Because not every invoice you send is allowed to be a claim under the Act.

Why should you attend this seminar? Because your business IS a CASH FLOW business
No matter what product or service you provide within the Building & Construction industry, you need cash.
You may have even been the unfortunate victim of your payment being held up on a large project where you had invested a lot of resources into. Luckily, you have the LAW on your side.
Called the 'Security of Payments Act' in NSW or the Building and Construction Industry Payments Act (BCIPA) in QLD, it helps you claim for money rightfully owing to you if you are a: 
- Principal or Developer in a construction project
- Contractor working for a Principal/Developer
- Subcontractors appointed by a contractor
- Suppliers against purchasing customers
- Lenders of plant & equipment
- Consultants
