Description

with Isaac Kotila, Regional Credit Manager, IDI

About the webinar:

Designed specifically for credit professionals, this webinar unpacks the clauses that shape payment outcomes long before an invoice is issued.

We’ll explore how to identify and interpret high-impact provisions such as pay-if-paid and pay-when-paid clauses, retainage terms, change-order procedures, and other hidden risk triggers. Participants will learn how these clauses affect credit decisions, lien rights, and collection strategies, and how to flag contract language that may limit leverage or delay payment.

You’ll walk away with a sharper contract-reading lens and a stronger ability to anticipate and mitigate credit exposure early in the project lifecycle.
