How Better Installation and Commissioning Accelerates Revenue and Improves Cash Flow

For many OEMs and service providers, the speed and quality of installation and commissioning directly affect the bottom line. Until a project is fully commissioned and handed over, revenue often can’t be recognised, invoices can’t be finalised, and cash flow remains tied up.

A slow or disorganised commissioning process isn’t just frustrating for customers - it can also delay payments, increase costs, and erode profitability.

By standardising and digitising installation and commissioning, companies can speed up project delivery, reduce rework, and improve cash flow while leaving a better impression on customers.

Why Commissioning Impacts Revenue Recognition

Commissioning is often the final milestone in a project contract. Until it’s complete:

• The project remains in progress (and can’t be closed out financially).
• Customers may withhold final payment pending sign-off.
• Your teams remain tied to the project, delaying resource allocation to new jobs.

A slow or inconsistent commissioning process creates a bottleneck that delays revenue realisation and impacts cash flow.

How Poor Commissioning Hurts Cash Flow

• Rework eats into margins – Incorrect installs or missed steps lead to repeat site visits.
• Handover delays push out payments – Without proper documentation or evidence, customers may not sign off.
• Inefficient admin increases costs – Manual report creation and lost paperwork slow down invoicing.

These issues all lead to longer payment cycles and reduced profitability.

How Standardisation and Digitisation Improve Financial Outcomes

✅ Faster Project Completion = Faster Payment

Digitised workflows reduce delays by guiding technicians step by step, capturing evidence in real time, and producing instant handover reports.

✅ Reduced Rework and Site Revisits

When teams follow a repeatable commissioning framework, mistakes and missed steps are minimised - lowering costs and freeing resources for new revenue-generating projects.

✅ Cleaner Handover Improves Customer Confidence

Professional, consistent documentation reassures customers that work has been completed to spec - making payment approval faster and easier.
