AIA Documents G702 and G703 are standardized forms used in the construction industry for tracking and managing payment applications. Specifically, G702, the Application and Certificate for Payment, serves as the contractor’s formal request for payment from the owner. G703, the Continuation Sheet, provides a detailed breakdown of the work completed and its associated costs, supporting the information presented in G702. The availability of these documents in PDF format facilitates digital distribution and ease of access.
The utilization of these standardized forms provides a consistent and transparent method for documenting payment requests and approvals within a construction project. This structured approach minimizes ambiguity, helps prevent disputes, and streamlines the payment process. The widespread adoption of these documents has contributed to improved communication and financial management across diverse construction projects and various project stakeholders. Historically, these forms evolved to address the complexities of construction finance and the need for clear, legally sound documentation.
