How to Use This Calculator
Identify the valuation or relevant date first. Select the signed-contract basis when the agreed payment timetable applies and enter its periods. Use fallback values only after checking whether they apply. Keep the application date, notice periods and counting basis visible with the result.
Worked Example
With an illustrative valuation date and application date of 1 October 2026, the example periods give a due date of 8 October, a payment-notice deadline of 13 October, a pay-less deadline of 18 October and a final payment date of 25 October. The signed contract determines the actual periods and counting rules.
Before You Use the Result
A calculated date does not test service, authority, notice content or amendments. Compare the result with the project timetable and record the source of each period.
For a project that needs a wider review, explore QSEC valuation and payment support alongside The Subbie QS support.
