05 · DRAW & CLOSEOUT CONTROL
Evidence before reimbursement.
2 of 6 project controls marked complete. These toggles are a working checklist only and do not determine legal compliance or payment entitlement.
The entered cost is potentially eligible but excluded until its draw conditions are confirmed.
The entered cost is potentially eligible but excluded until its draw conditions are confirmed.
MODEL BOUNDARY
Project control—not certification.
- Every cost, eligibility percentage, evidence reference and draw-ready status is user-entered and must be checked against the executed lease, work letter and construction contracts.
- The allowance cap is the entered rentable area multiplied by the entered allowance rate plus the entered fixed landlord contribution; landlord work outside that contribution is not valued automatically.
- The modelled holdback is a user-entered project-control assumption, not a conclusion about any provincial construction-lien statute, contract or release date.
- Current draw support uses either invoiced or paid costs, as selected, and excludes a line until the user marks it draw-ready.
- GST/HST, input tax credits, financing cost, contractor default, lien priority, change-order entitlement and professional certification are excluded.
