What are Advance Payment Guarantees?
An Advance Payment Guarantee is a financial instrument issued by a bank on behalf of a contractor to a procuring entity. This guarantee secures upfront payments for jobs that have been awarded but not yet executed, enabling contractors to mobilize resources and begin project implementation.
At Blackbow Consult, we facilitate advance payment guarantees that provide the necessary cash flow for project mobilization while protecting the interests of project owners. These guarantees typically cover 10-30% of the contract value and ensure proper utilization of advance payments.
Our advance payment guarantees enable contractors to access working capital for equipment procurement, material purchases, and workforce mobilization, ensuring smooth project commencement and execution.
