Construction projects are typically lengthy endeavors that involve significant financial transactions. Unfortunately, delays and financial difficulties often result in project setbacks and increased costs. The billing process plays a crucial role in managing the project's finances. However, traditional billing methods are time-consuming, taking nearly a month to release payments to contractors due to the need for document approval, certificate verification, and bill verification. This slow process can be quite cumbersome. To address these challenges, this paper proposes the use of blockchain technology to streamline the billing process. By implementing blockchain and utilizing the Python language, we can ensure the security of all transactions while significantly accelerating the billing process through online platforms. Additionally, this study aims to develop a storage model for maintaining payment records for future reference. To gain insights into the traditional billing process, we conducted on-site visits to three local construction sites. Based on our observations, we have created a model that allows users to view and upload necessary documents. Based on our findings, implementing blockchain technology in billing processes can lead to a significant time-saving of around 50% when compared to traditional methods. This research provides readers with a comprehensive insights into the various applications of blockchain technology in the construction industry. This study serves as a valuable resource for those interested in exploring secure billing platforms and the potential benefits they can bring to construction projects.
