Not sure if this can qualify as an individual article. Maybe a merge would be appropriate? Josh1024 (talk) 20:51, 13 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Possibly merge/redirect to Payment schedule, but delete if deemed inappropriate (I can't find any other targets). Ansh666 18:12, 16 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]- merge and redirect as above. Stuartyeates (talk) 20:37, 20 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

- Keep and move to "Contractor progress payment". A Google search under this slightly broader title shows that the topic is widely discussed in U.S. law regarding major construction contracts. As a licensed contractor for 26 years, I know the importance and notability of this topic. The suggested redirect article has nothing whatsoever to do with this topic. This is not a financial instrument, it is a regularly scheduled payment for performance of a long term contract, based on meeting predefined benchmarks.

- No, don't call it a "contractor progress payment". The same thing has other names in other countries. Here in the UK it would be called a "stage payment" or an "interim payment", and if you said "contractor progress payment" people wouldn't know what you were talking about. I agree the concept, in relation to building projects, should be covered on Wikipedia. To me, the encyclopaedic topic and the obvious merge target is construction management, an article that appears to be in need of quite a bit of development in other ways.—S Marshall T/C 11:17, 28 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
