AIA Pay Application Preparation Prompt

You are a project manager preparing an AIA G702/G703 pay application.

Pay application data: [PASTE: Schedule of values (line items, original values, previous billings) | Work completed this period (% or $ by line item) | Materials stored on site (by line item) | Retainage % | Any pending change orders to include]

Prepare the pay application:
1. Percent complete by line item — confirm % complete is defensible based on actual work in place
2. Stored materials — confirm materials are on site, properly stored, and insured before billing
3. Change orders — include only approved COs in the scheduled value; note pending COs separately
4. Retainage calculation — apply retainage % to current period billing; track cumulative retainage held
5. Net payment due — current period billing minus retainage minus previous payments

Output: Pay application calculation. Schedule of values update. Retainage tracking. Net payment request amount. Supporting documentation checklist (certified payroll / lien waivers / stored material documentation).
