0. INTRODUCTION
This specification provides the definition of the Direct
payment valuation message (CONDPV) to be used in Electronic
Data Interchange (EDI) between trading partners involved in
administration, commerce and transport.
1. SCOPE
1.1 Functional Definition
This message is the instruction by the contractor to the party
responsible for payments, to pay the subcontractors for work
completed.
1.2 Field of Application
This message type may be applied for both national and
international trade. It is based on universal practice and is
not dependent on the type of business or industry.
The following descriptions refer to the construction industry
as an example, but do not exclude other business sectors'
implementation.
1.3 Principles
This message is designed to be used to support the business
process of communicating the value of progress against groups
of work items which make up a construction project.
Within the construction industry, it is common practice to
subcontract "packages" of work to other parties. It is also
common practice for this type of work to be paid for on a
"phased" basis.
This message will be raised by the party responsible for
overseeing the subcontracted work. It will contain the identity
of the subcontractor and the value of payment approved for the
current payment period. The recipient of this message,
typically the client, will treat this as an instruction to pay.
The identity of the various subcontracted parties and details
of their bank accounts, etc, will have been established at the
start of the project in an appropriate message.
As it is possible for new subcontractors to be nominated during
the life of a project provision has been made within this
message to record the basic details about such a subcontractor.
The payments made to subcontractors are subject to similar
price fluctuation indices as apply to the CONPVA message.
