These services cater to a wide range of clients, targeting both public and private sectors throughout California. They work primarily with clients engaged in large-scale commercial and civil projects, demonstrating a strong focus on collaborative, seamless service delivery.
Thompson Builders' impressive work has garnered recognition, with numerous projects winning awards and being hailed as icons in Northern California. Notable constructions in their portfolio include the footings for the Yerba Buena Island SF-Oakland Bay Bridge, Manteca’s Big League Dreams Sports Park, San Jose's Happy Hollow Zoo, San Francisco’s Cadillac Hotel, 72 Townsend, and the Chinatown YMCA. These accolades affirm Thompson Builders' commitment to quality and innovative building practices, ensuring they remain a leader in the construction industry, driven by a rich history of excellence and a vision for the future.
Payment applications generally include the application for payment form and a continuation sheet (which includes a schedule of values and change orders). Depending on the situation, you may also include backup documents like materials receipts and invoices, payroll wage reports, and lien waivers.
It's a lot to keep straight, and it's further complicated by most GCs requiring their own custom payment application forms, rather than standard AIA templates. Fortunately, Siteline has more than 8,000 forms from over 6,000 GCs—in our system. Our software streamlines the entire monthly billing workflow, ensuring you submit the perfect pay apps on time, every time, which gets your invoices paid about three weeks faster.Want to see for yourself?
