NSW Security of Payment Guide

Cash flow is the lifeblood of contractors in the NSW construction industry.

When you don’t get paid for works, you need to act fast to protect your interests and recover the money owed to you. Otherwise you are at risk of missing crucial deadlines and losing your best chance to recover payments.

Adjudicating your unpaid claim under the Building and Construction Industry Security of Payment Act 1999 (NSW) can be an effective method for resolving such disputes.
