Progress Reports & Subcontractors: Automate Payments Without Excel

Key Points
- Average admin time on SAL management: 20-30 hours/month per active project
- Real-time progress tracking eliminates retrospective disputes
- Automatic DURC verification before each payment (legal requirement)
- Retention guarantee (ritenuta 0.5%) tracked automatically per SAL
- Estimated savings: €8,000-15,000/year for a €3M turnover firm
