Why It Matters

What Financial Reporting Is For

The objective of financial reporting is to give the owner, the bank and the surety reliable numbers in time to make decisions. Comprehensive, timely and accurate reports let you adjust to changes in your business and your market before they hurt you.
Many contractors can’t justify a full-time CFO or controller, so the owner ends up doing the books on top of running the company. We give you that level of reporting for a fraction of the cost.

Who Reads Your Reports

You and Your Managers

Job profit, backlog and KPIs to run the company and bid new work.

Your Bank

Statements and covenant reports for your credit lines and loans.

Your Surety

A current WIP schedule and financials to support your bonding line.

Your Tax Accountant

Closed, reconciled books at year-end. We work alongside your accountant.
