Mead Partners Chartered Accountants & Business Advisors for Home Builders

Mead Partners Chartered Accountants & Business Advisors for Home Builders We help your construction business grow. We look at your whole business, not just the numbers!

18/06/2026

Most builders don’t get into construction because they love accounting.
They’re busy managing jobs, dealing with clients, coordinating trades, running a business, and looking after their families.

So it’s no surprise that WIP (Work In Progress) often gets pushed to the bottom of the priority list.

The problem is that without accurate WIP, it can be difficult to know where your jobs are really sitting.

A job might look profitable when it isn’t.
Your margins may not be what you think they are.
And your profit reports may not tell the full story.

That’s why I’m running a free online WIP workshop for builders on 25 June.
We’ll cover:
✔️ What WIP actually means
✔️ Why it matters
✔️ How it affects profit and cashflow
✔️ A simple WIP template you can start using straight away

No accounting jargon. Just practical insights to help you better understand your numbers.

📅 Thursday 25 June 2026
⏰ 11:00am – 12:00pm AEST
💻 Online via Zoom

Comment WIP or send me a message and I’ll send you the details.

Positive WIP sounds like a good thing... but what does it actually mean?

In simple terms, positive WIP usually means you’ve completed more work than you’ve claimed or invoiced.

While this may indicate future revenue to be claimed, it can also create unnecessary cashflow pressure if claims are delayed.

The key isn’t whether your WIP is positive or negative.

The key is understanding what it’s telling you about your jobs, your cashflow, and your profitability.

Swipe through to learn:
✔️ What positive WIP means
✔️ Why it happens
✔️ When it can become a problem
✔️ What builders should be monitoring

Understanding your WIP can help you make better decisions and avoid surprises down the track.

Does your profit report say one thing, while your bank account says another?

Many builders focus on profit, but profit alone doesn't tell the whole story.

Here are 3 signs your jobs may need a WIP review:

✔️ Your profit looks healthy, but cash is always tight

✔️ You're surprised by the final profit on completed jobs

✔️ You're not sure whether your jobs are under-claimed or over-claimed

Without accurate WIP, your financial reports may not reflect what's really happening in your business.

That's exactly why we're running this free workshop:

"Your profit looks healthy… but your cashflow feels tight?

Many builders experience this without realising the issue may come down to one thing: WIP (Work in Progress).

WIP is more than just an accounting number.
It helps builders understand:
✔️ whether jobs are under- or over-claimed
✔️ if margins are under pressure
✔️ which projects may become risky
✔️ what action needs to be taken next

Good WIP creates:
🔹 better cashflow visibility
🔹 stronger forecasting
🔹 more confidence in decision-making
🔹 less financial stress

When builders understand their numbers properly, they can run their business with more clarity and less pressure.

We’re running a practical workshop for builders to explain WIP in plain English and show how to use it as a monthly job health check.
