Sectors / Construction & public works
Sector 01 Construction & public worksFactoring and confirming for construction.
Projects take months. Payments take longer. Your treasury cannot wait.
The challenge
Construction is one of the sectors with the longest payment terms, and public project owners often take longer still. Slow progress certificates, guarantee retentions and concentration on a single project owner strain treasury on every project.
The solution
Factoring advances approved progress certificates and project invoices: once a bank or funder approves, the money arrives in 1 to 2 business days. Confirming extends payment to materials suppliers without harming the relationship or the project schedule.
What shapes the sector
- Payment terms: long, and longer still with public project owners
- Margins: tight, so every day of waiting weighs on cash
- Main risk: concentration on a single project owner
How Advanta adapts to your sector
Construction has lower margins and longer terms. The risk analysis treats construction (NACE 41-43) as its own sector and assesses the concentration risk on the main project owner, instead of a generic score.
