Adaptive Builds Automation Tools To Speed Up Construction Payments

The construction industry has a slow payments problem. Studies have found that it takes anywhere from two to three months on average for construction companies to get paid, due to factors such as delays, multiple payment layers and cost overruns. The cost of sluggish construction contract payments climbed to $273 billion in 2023, representing 14% of the total project expenditures that year. Matthew Calvano, along with Henry Bradlow and Francisco Enriquez, thought that the cause laid in back-office inefficiencies. So in 2021, the trio co-founded Adaptive, a platform that provides tools designed to simplify payments and accounting for general construction contractors.“The construction payment chain involves multiple layers, including banks, developers, general contractors and subcontractors,” Calvano told TechCrunch. “We believe that this complex web, combined with the fact that most construction companies are small- and medium-sized businesses (SMBs) lacking financial expertise, are the primary drivers of the industry’s slow payments.”Adaptive, which this week closed a $19 million Series A round led by Emergence Capital, delivers an array of workflow automations for financial management, including budgeting, expense tracking, accounts payable and electronic payments
