If a body corporate has engaged a contractor to carry out construction work, including building, civil engineering, electrical, hire of plant/equipment, landscaping, maintenance, professional services such as architectural design and supply of building material, they need to be mindful that if they choose to withhold payment for any reason, the contractor may take the matter to adjudication if the procedure under the Building and Construction Industry Payment Act is not followed.

 If the body corporate is planning on withholding payment they should, within ten (10) business days of receiving the payment claim (invoice), write to the contractor and provide a payment schedule which should include grounds of why payment is being withheld and when payment will be processed.
