The ConsensusDocs 710 Subcontractor Application for Payment is a standardized, notarized form specifically designed to facilitate accurate and efficient progress payments in construction projects that utilize a lump sum contract structure. It is commonly used by Constructors—including builders, general contractors, design-builders, and construction managers—to verify and process payments to subcontractors.

This form enables the Subcontractor to certify that the value of the work completed reflects actual progress on-site and that payments—excluding agreed-upon retention—have been made to all Subsubcontractors and suppliers in compliance with applicable laws and regulations. The notarized certification promotes accountability and reduces the risk of payment disputes or lien claims.

The ConsensusDocs 710 form also allows for the detailed tracking of approved change orders, stored materials on site, and retention amounts, ensuring full transparency and proper documentation throughout the billing cycle. Its structured format improves communication between parties and supports a smoother, more predictable payment process on both public and private construction projects.

Ideal for any construction team looking to simplify billing procedures while maintaining high standards of accuracy and legal compliance, the ConsensusDocs 710 is a vital tool for effective subcontractor payment management.

Client Success Stories Using This Contract

ConsensusDocs is about much more than just producing model documents — it’s about changing the way that the construction industry thinks about contracts and contract negotiation. The question is: Where should negotiations start? The ConsensusDocs documents are a good answer for contractors and subcontractors. Early on, ConsensusDocs made a decision that its process for developing contract language for the industry would be transparent and inclusive and their collaborative approach may also inspire others to re-think the old, stereotyped ‘push risk to the weakest party’ approach to negotiating contracts.
