Automating Bids, POs, and Retainage with Square Catalog & Next.js 16

By Engineering · TodoBuild Technologies Inc.

Managing subcontractor bid leveling, owner change orders, and payment milestone releases often breaks down at the payment collection point. Square Catalog integration solves this with unified SKU governance.

Unified SKU Governance

Every service, from Tier W-1 Trade Launch to Tier T-10 Titan OS Apex, is mapped to a unique canonical Square SKU (e.g., TDB-WRK-W-1, TDB-OPS-O-4). When a contractor selects custom add-ons like Odoo ERP Sync or Bilingual Spanish UI, the checkout payload generates an automated Square invoice with pre-configured milestone installments.

50/50 Milestone Escrow Workflow

Our automated workflow enforces contractor cashflow best practices:

  1. Discovery Lock: 14-section intake form captures technical specifications and domain credentials.
  2. Milestone 1 (50%): Mobilization deposit processed securely via Square Invoice or ACH.
  3. Sprint Deployment: Automated staging environment provisioned with Next.js 16 and Odoo 17 container.
  4. UAT Acceptance: Formal user acceptance checklist signed digitally prior to production DNS cutover.
  5. Milestone 2 (50%): Final balance release triggers source code IP handover and master SLA retainer.
