Current Liabilities are financial obligations or debts that a construction company has to settle within a short-term period, typically within a year. These usually include suppliers' payments for building materials, salaries and wages for construction workers, short-term loans for immediate project needs, interest payments on construction loans and taxes. These might also consist of project-related accrued expenses, or money that the company owes but has not been billed for yet, such as utilities. It's critical for businesses running construction projects to properly manage their Current Liabilities to ensure financial stability and the smooth completion of projects. The ability to meet these short-term financial obligations is a key indicator of the financial health of a construction company.

A Schedule of Values (SOV) is an essential financial tool used in the construction industry. It's essentially a detailed plan that lists out the entire scope of construction work and assign costs to each element. The SOV is organized into a series of line items categorized by phase, task, or materials required for the job. This document is a critical component of successful project management as it breaks down the work into measurable parts to calculate and track costs throughout the project. This ensures that the project stays on budget and timeline. The SOV can be updated as the project progresses to reflect any changes. It provides a useful framework for monitoring progress, managing payments, and resolving disputes, making it integral to the financial health of a construction project.

A submittal in the construction industry refers to the documents or materials that contractors present to architects and engineers for approval during the course of a project. The submittal process ensures all products and materials meet the quality and specifications outlined in the contract, helping to maintain standards and avoid costly revisions or errors. These documentations can include shop drawings, material data, samples, and product data. The submittal process is essential to avoid any potential discrepancies or misunderstandings, and it has to be accurately managed to guarantee the project's success.
