What a fractional CFO does for a contractor

Clean books tell you what happened. CFO services tell you which jobs are working and where your cash is going.

01

Job costing and profitability

Costs landed on the right job, with margin by job so you see winners and losers early.

02

Work in progress reporting

WIP schedules that compare billing to work completed, so over and under billing never surprises you.

03

Progress billing and retainage

Billing, retainage, and collections tracked so cash is not stuck on the job.

04

Cash flow forecasting by job

A forward look at cash tied to your jobs, payroll, and materials.

05

Bonding and lender reporting

Reporting packages your surety, bank, or lender expects.

06

Overhead and bid analysis

Overhead and margin targets so your bids cover what the work really costs.

How it works

A short setup, then a steady monthly rhythm. An accountant reviews the work before you see it.

Step one

Discovery call

We learn your jobs, your contract types, and where the numbers are hard to trust today.

Step two

Set up job reporting

We agree on the job cost structure, the WIP schedule, and when you receive each report.

Step three

Monthly review and guidance

You get reporting ahead of time, and we talk through what it means for your jobs and your cash.

Built for contractors who want to see the numbers early

If you only learn a job lost money after it is done, this is for you.

  • You do not know which jobs are really profitable until they finish
  • Cash gets tight between billing and getting paid
  • Your surety or lender wants WIP schedules and better reporting
  • You are growing and the books are not keeping up

Priced to the scope of your engagement

Every contractor is different, so pricing is a monthly fee based on the work involved. You get a clear number before you commit.

1

Number of active jobs

How many jobs run at once and how long they last.

2

Contract and billing types

Fixed price, cost plus, progress billing, and retainage all add work.

3

Reporting needs

WIP schedules and the packages your surety or lender requires.

Questions contractors ask

What is WIP reporting?

A work in progress schedule compares what you have billed to the work completed on each job, so you see over or under billing before it hurts your cash.

Can you set up job costing in my software?

Yes. We set up and review job costing in your accounting system so costs land on the right job.

How is this different from bookkeeping?

Bookkeeping records what happened. CFO services explain what it means and what to do next. We can provide both.

Do I need clean books first?

Reliable books are the starting point. If yours need work, we can scope a cleanup first, then move into CFO level support.
