About Profitable Growth

 

Every contractor's vision and situation is unique. We understand that. We tailor our experience, relationships, tools and training specifically for your business. 

Just like there is no simple way to summarize how you build a complex project, there is also no simple way for us to describe everything we do.

All relationships begin with a conversation. Please reach out and schedule time to talk about your vision, your business, your team, and your challenges. Together, we can explore opportunities for growth and see if there is fit.

 


 

The Challenges for Contractors

All contractors go through very predictable stages of growth with each requiring changes to their market strategy, leadership focus, organizational structure, processes and operating rhythms.

Beyond that, the construction industry is going through unprecedented changes including COVID-19 and the inevitable economic fall-out that will last years.  

Every contractor is already aware of these industry-wide changes, along with all the “normal” challenges faced by a growing contractor. These changes are continuing to create amazing opportunities for those contractors that can capitalize on them, many others will be left behind. Today’s dominant contractors will not necessarily be dominant in tomorrow’s market.

These challenges have all been successfully navigated before. There is nothing truly new under the sun. Build upon the foundation of your experience by leveraging our experience, strategies, problem solving capabilities, tools, tactics and relationships to accelerate your growth. Effective collaboration with the right people at the right time creates exceptional contractors.

Valuation Math - Growth Pays
All other factors being equal, a contractor that can accelerate growth after the purchase will -- in most cases -- be able to pay for the business quicker.
Contractors Are Like Sharks
Contractors never get to slow down. They must always be moving forward on the hunt for the next high-quality project, the talent to build that project, and always improving their operational capabilities to deliver that project successfully.
Changes and Cash Flow Improvement
Construction is a cash-intensive business and change orders are often one of the root causes of poor cash flow. A 30-day improvement to change management workflow can generate over $400K in additional cash flow for a $50M contractor.
