Ask what's billed, what's backed up and what's waiting on you.
You: What is waiting on me?
BuildProof: Two things: Req #4 needs your review, and change order 3 needs your approval.
Waiting for you, 2 items: Req #4 · Oct 2026 $376,785.00; Change order 3 $38,400.00
You: Is anything billed that isn't done?
BuildProof: I can't see the site, so I checked the numbers: no line is billed past its scheduled value, and 3 lines are billed at 90% or more and worth a walk.
Worth a walk, 3 lines: Roofing 95% billed; Concrete 92% billed; Framing 90% billed
You: Approve the pencil.
BuildProof: Here is the approval for Req #4. Nothing is approved until you tap.
