AIA Billing Built for
HVAC Contractors

Equipment tracking, commissioning billing, and warranty holdbacks handled automatically. Rivet understands HVAC project complexity.

HVAC Billing Has Unique Challenges

Equipment-heavy projects with commissioning requirements and warranty holdbacks need specialized billing tools.

Equipment vs Labor Split

Tracking equipment costs separately from labor installation on the SOV is complex.

Billing accuracy issues

Startup & Commissioning

Commissioning often happens weeks after install. Billing it as a separate line item is tricky.

Delayed final billing

Warranty Holdbacks

Some GCs hold additional retainage for equipment warranty periods beyond standard terms.

Extended payment delays

Seasonal Cash Flow

HVAC projects bunch up seasonally, making cash flow management critical.
