What is SOPA payment schedule software?

SOPA payment schedule software helps teams track payment claim and payment schedule timing under Security of Payment processes. Palydin focuses on deadline visibility, claim context, assessment records, and audit history.

Does Palydin decide whether a payment schedule is compliant?

No. Palydin helps track dates, records, and workflow context. Compliance decisions should be reviewed by your team and advisers.

Can Palydin connect SOPA dates to claim assessment?

Yes. SOPA timing can be viewed beside the claim, assessment activity, contract documents, and audit trail.

Which construction teams need SOPA deadline visibility?

Subcontractors, head contractors, and principals all benefit because missed or unclear payment schedule timing can create avoidable commercial risk.

SOPA dates

SOPA payment schedule software for visible deadlines and auditable assessments

Palydin keeps SOPA payment schedule context beside the claim, contract, assessment history, and supporting documents. Teams can see the deadline position before it disappears into email or a single person's calendar.

Palydin contract overview showing claim progress, health signals, and contract value — SOPA timing makes sense when it is tied to the claim, the contract, and the assessment record.

The old process hides the facts in the gaps.

Separate files, separate assessments, and no reliable shared record.

01
Payment claim lands in email while the deadline sits in a calendar.
02
Assessment context lives in a separate spreadsheet or PDF mark-up.
03
Contract clauses are checked manually under time pressure.
04
The payment schedule record is hard to reconstruct later.
05
Responsibility for timing depends on one person's tracker.

How Palydin handles it

A workflow for the full commercial day.

Step 01
Set the claim context
Capture jurisdiction, contract terms, claim cadence, and the claim period that drives payment schedule timing.
Step 02
Track the SOPA window
Keep payment schedule dates visible beside claim submission, assessment status, and supporting records.
Step 03
Record assessment reasons
Tie approved and rejected amounts back to reasons, prior assessments, contract context, and supporting documents.
Step 04
Keep the schedule record
Preserve payment schedule output, notification context, and audit history after the assessment moves.

Every step stays attached to the same record:

Payment claim

Claim period

SOPA deadline

Assessment reasons

Payment schedule

Audit

Useful from either side of the contract.

Subcontractors

Keep claim timing and payment schedule context visible after submission.

Head contractors

Assess claims with deadline visibility, contract context, and a defensible record.

Principals

Track payment schedule exposure across contracts without relying on inbox status.

Built for Australian construction

Built around the records commercial teams argue over.

Palydin uses Australian construction language in the product: progress claims, retention, GST, payment schedules, and the claimant/assessor relationship between subcontractors, head contractors, and principals.

Progress claims: Claim periods, claimed-to-date values, prior assessments, supporting documents, and submitted status stay together.
GST and retention: Keep GST, retention deductions, held amounts, and release context visible inside the claim workflow.
SOPA/payment schedules: Track payment schedule context beside the claim, assessment reasons, contract terms, and audit history.
Both sides of the contract: Subcontractors can prepare the record. Head contractors and principals can assess from the same file.
Audit trail: Claim changes, assessment reasons, variation decisions, and retention activity stay attached to the record.
Access controls: Role-based permissions keep claimant, assessor, admin, commercial, and viewer workflows separated.
Counterparty scoping: External parties only work inside the contracts they are connected to, not the whole project portfolio.
Contract-cited AI: Answers point back to contract material so teams can check the source before acting.
