How It Works

Three steps. Real answers. No runaround.

1

15-Min Discovery Call

We talk about your business, your systems, and your biggest financial headache. If we're a fit, we schedule the audit.

2

We Dig Into Your Books

Cory personally reviews your QuickBooks and PM software using our 7-Pillar + 10-Point audit framework. Takes about 2 days. Your data stays under NDA.

3

Written Report + Strategy Call

You get a detailed report showing every leak with specific dollar amounts, plus a 90-minute call to walk through the findings and your options.

What We Audit

We look at the 6 places construction companies bleed money.

💸 Unbilled Change Orders

Work approved in the field that never made it to an invoice. This is the #1 profit leak — averaging $28K when we find it.

📊 Job Cost Accuracy

Estimates vs. actuals by phase. Are you actually making money on each job, or is overhead eating your margins?

🏦 AR & Collections

How long it takes you to get paid, where invoices are stuck, and whether you're financing your clients' projects with your own cash.

🔗 System Integration

Is data flowing between your PM software and QuickBooks — or are you double-entering everything and trusting neither?

📋 WIP & Retainage

Your work-in-progress schedule and retainage tracking. Critical for bonding capacity and knowing your true financial position.

📉 Cash Flow Patterns

Where cash actually goes, the feast-or-famine cycle, and draw schedule optimization so you stop floating other people's projects.

The stuff that makes this audit worth doing

"We're profitable on paper." Your bank account filed a counter-claim. Your P&L doesn't match reality because your systems don't match each other.

"Revenue went up. Cash went down." Growth without financial systems is just a faster way to run out of money. We'll show you exactly why.

"My bonding agent needs a WIP schedule." Your response: "Give me two weeks." Translation: "I need to panic-build this from scratch."

"I know we're losing money somewhere." You can feel it. You just can't prove it — or find it. That's literally what this audit does.

Real Audit, Real Contractor

What we found in Zach's books

Zach's company looked profitable on the P&L. Change orders were getting approved in the field but never invoiced. AR was running 52 days. Job costs were guesswork. We ran the same audit we're offering you. Here's what came out of it:

$28K
Unbilled change orders recovered
21 days
Faster collections (52→31)
~$45K
Monthly cash improvement
$137K
Total year-one impact

Zach's annual investment: ~$45K. First-year return: just over 3×. That started with the audit.

Who Qualifies

This audit is built for a very specific contractor.

Good fit if:

  • You're between $500K–$10M in revenue
  • You use QuickBooks (or should be)
  • You use or plan to use Buildertrend, Procore, CoConstruct, or Knowify
  • You suspect money is leaking but can't pinpoint where
  • Builder, remodeler, GC, specialty trade, or developer

Probably not a fit if:

  • Under $250K (the audit is designed for more complex operations)
  • Not in construction (our entire framework is industry-specific)
  • Already have a fractional controller running your financials
  • Looking for tax prep (we work alongside your CPA, not in place of them)

After the Audit

This is what the other side looks like.

Contractors who act on the audit end up here: every job's profitability in real-time, cash flow forecasted weekly, AR aging tracked automatically, WIP schedules ready when bonding agents call. No more midnight spreadsheets.

15-minute call. No pitch. We'll talk about your numbers and see if the audit makes sense for your situation.

Questions about the audit

Why is this free? What's the catch?

Contractors who see exactly where they're losing money become the best clients — because they already understand the problem. The audit is our way of demonstrating what we do instead of talking about it. Some people fix it themselves. Some hire us. Either way, you leave with a report showing real dollar amounts.

What do you need access to?

Temporary read-only access to your QuickBooks and your project management software (Buildertrend, Procore, CoConstruct, Knowify, etc.). Everything is covered under a strict NDA. We review, we report, we remove our access. Your data stays yours.

How long does the whole thing take?

The discovery call is 15 minutes. The audit itself takes Cory about 2 days on our end (you're not sitting around waiting). Then we schedule a 90-minute strategy call to walk through everything. Start to finish, usually about a week.

What if you don't find anything?

In over a dozen audits, we've never not found something significant. But our guarantee stands: if we don't identify at least $10,000 in recoverable cash or preventable losses, the audit costs you nothing. You keep whatever we find.

Is this a sales pitch disguised as an audit?

The report is real and it's yours regardless. It tells you exactly what's wrong and how to fix it — with or without us. We'll explain how we can help implement the fixes if you're interested, but there's zero pressure. Most of our clients came to us after trying to DIY it first.

I already have a bookkeeper. Can you still audit?

Absolutely — and that's actually the most common scenario. Most bookkeepers are great at general accounting. The audit looks at construction-specific systems: job costing accuracy, change order capture, WIP schedules, PM-to-QuickBooks data flow. It's controller-level analysis, not a second opinion on your categorizations.

You're leaving money on the table.
Let's find out how much.

Free audit. Written report with dollar amounts. $10K guarantee. No obligation to do anything with it except get smarter about your numbers.
