# Kapwork Launches BEAD Tracker and Invoice Certification

Kapwork has introduced the Kapwork Growth Suite, a free platform designed to support small businesses and contractors engaged in broadband infrastructure projects funded by the $42.45 billion Broadband Equity, Access, and Deployment (BEAD) program. This platform aggregates data from over 80 federal agencies to help identify relevant infrastructure opportunities and offers invoice certification services that verify receivables directly from debtor portals. This certification accelerates contractor funding by reducing fraud risk and increasing lender confidence, facilitating faster access to capital for businesses involved in broadband and telecommunications infrastructure deployment.

- The platform's integration with BEAD program data enables procurement professionals and contractors to efficiently track federally funded broadband projects nationwide.
- Invoice certification reduces financial risk by preventing invoice duplication, which is critical for capital providers financing infrastructure contracts.
- Contractors and small businesses can leverage this tool to improve cash flow and accelerate payment cycles, enhancing project execution capabilities.
- Capital providers and investors may find increased confidence in financing broadband infrastructure projects due to verified receivables, potentially expanding funding availability in this sector.

### Key Quotes
> Fabricating invoices is the fraud risk everyone in this space is watching for right now. Pulling from the debtor's own portal cuts that off at the source. Kapwork's certified data gives us the confidence to deploy capital faster and price deals without carrying that doubt in the rate.
> — Saul Gewer, Chief Strategy Officer, TowerCap

> In Brazil we processed more than US$1 trillion in receivables. As a result, credit supply to SME's more than tripled, with an average cost of credit 75 percent lower than the cost observed before we began operations. Once an invoice is verified, it can't be pledged twice, so funders trust what they're financing, and credit reaches companies that never had it before.
> — Marcelo Maziero, Co-founder, CERC
