Explanation:
Le règlement des comptes se fait par la remise d'un décompte.
•avant la fin de chaque mois, vous devez remettre au maître d’oeuvre un projet de DÉCOMPTE qui établit le montant total auquel vous pouvez prétendre du fait de l’exécution du marché depuis le début de celle-ci.
•Le projet de décompte mensuel est accepté ou rectifié par le maître d’oeuvre (il devient le DÉCOMPTE MENSUEL)

So it may be the interim application  interim valuation  interim certificate  interim payment process that is referred to.

We'd need the timeframe referred to in your text to know for sure.

decomptes
(anticipated) final account


Explanation:
"Le décompte" is the final account. However, as your text tells us that this is "montants previsonnels des décomptes", it is not the actual final account, but the anticipated figures. If the contractor receives stage payments, these will frequently be calculated according to the anticipated final account. When the actual final account is produced at the end of the job, adjustments are made accordingly.

neutral  Bourth (X): While what you say is true of the "Décompte général définitif (DGD)", "décompte" may also be said of interim statements (which might explain why the plural is used here).

agree  B D Finch: As you say, to be sure one needs a bit more information. The plural does indicate interim applications.
