Recover the money locked in unbilled change orders.
You did the work. It never made it into a signed change order — or it did, and the payment stalled. We audit one project and hand back exactly what is recoverable and how to go get it.

Cash you have already earned is sitting somewhere else.
In construction, the gap between doing the work and getting paid is where good contractors bleed. Change orders and T&M are the usual leak.
Paid late, every time
Around 82% of contractors now wait 30+ days beyond the expected payment date. The cash is real — the timing is the problem.
Retainage holds you hostage
5–10% of every payment is withheld until closeout. On a $500k subcontract that is $25k–$50k frozen for months.
Unbilled change orders
Extra or verbal work never signed off before closeout is the hardest money to recover, and the easiest to lose.
Change-Order Revenue Recovery Audit
Pick one project where work was done but not fully paid. Send whatever you have: change order log, T&M tickets, field emails, invoices. Names and figures can be anonymised. Within 48 hours you get back a prioritised picture of what is recoverable and a ready-to-use path to collect it.
Three steps, one project.
1. Send one project
Whatever you already have. No new documentation hunt, no special export.
2. We map the money
Every change, extra and T&M line is classified as recoverable, disputed or gone, with the basis named for each.
3. You chase with a plan
A prioritised list plus the messages and escalation steps to move each one.
Evidence before scale.
LYRA Venture Lab is an independent venture-testing project. This audit is a deliberately narrow pilot: one project, one fixed fee, measured honestly.
We do not provide legal advice and make no guarantee of recovery. If there is nothing worth chasing in your project, we say so plainly rather than padding a list.
