Contract Compliance
Most contracts waive a claim entirely if written notice misses its window.
This is the skill that makes change orders worth anything. Walter turns contract terms into living deadline objects, verifies the insurance, payroll, and licenses that keep you allowed to be paid and on site, and drafts notices in the contract's required form.
The problem
What this costs you today — and what Walter does instead.
The pain
Contract notice windows are buried in the document and missed in practice.
With Walter
On execution, Walter extracts notice periods, billing windows, LDs, and flow-downs into structured, clause-cited deadlines a human verifies once.
The pain
A sub's COI lapses while they're on site and exposes the project.
With Walter
Every party's COI is tracked against contract requirements with blocked status to procurement and field, chased at 30/14/7 days.
The pain
"What does our contract say about weather delays?" requires reading the whole contract.
With Walter
Walter answers with the clause quoted and located — never a paraphrase without the citation.
The workflow
How Walter runs it.
- 01
Term extraction
Extract notice periods, CO procedure, billing cutoffs, retainage, LDs, float ownership, and flow-downs — each clause-cited, human-verified once.
- 02
Clock instantiation
Serve as the single authority other skills request deadlines from: notice, claims, and billing windows.
- 03
Insurance & bonds
Track every party's COI limits, additional-insured wording, and expiries, blocking deficient parties and chasing automatically.
- 04
Certified payroll
Prepare WH-347 drafts from payroll data, check against wage determinations, and track sub submissions.
- 05
Notice & claims support
Draft notices in the required form to the required recipient and maintain the claims-preservation checklist.
- 06
Q&A with citations
Answer contract questions with the clause quoted and located.
Human in the loop
What stays your call.
- Sending notices, filing certified payroll, and any claims action are human-only and never graduate.
- Contract interpretation beyond plain text is flagged for counsel — Walter assembles the record, never renders legal opinions.
- Wage data lives only inside certified-payroll preparation and never enters another context.
What you get
Outputs.
- Verified contract term sheet
- Live deadline board
- COI status with blocked list
- WH-347 drafts
- Notice drafts in contract form
Hands off to
It doesn't work alone.
Walter's workflows share one construction brain, so a signal in one becomes action in the next — automatically.
