Building & construction businesses are some of the most difficult to manage.

Taking into consideration the people, materials and logistics involved.  Labour utilisation and optimising materials usage are key to ensuring a profitable outcome for projects.  Competition creates a need to be not just accurate in quoting/budgeting on projects, but also on delivering them on time and on budget.

Quoting on the right jobs/projects that are going to deliver the best profit is key to running a successful building & construction business.  Getting the numbers right in quoting is vital to ensuring each project is profitable.

Managing projects so they run smoothly without holdups is key to avoiding headaches and ensuring they are profitable.

Carefully managing customer expectations is vital to ensuring satisfaction and removing any reasons for delays in payment that could cause cash flow problems.

How do CFO services help with Business Growth Guidance?
Business Growth can be a tricky time for business owners.  The resources required to achieve sustainable growth needs careful consideration.  It’s tempting to think that growth in sales will fix everything else, however CFOs have experienced situations where this definitely isn’t the case! With business growth comes a need for extra cash to cover more sales, extra resources e.g. premises, wages, stock etc. to deliver more sales.  This needs to be carefully understood and the cash requirement factored in.  Extra funds may need to be sourced externally and a CFO can help ensure a business gets the funding it needs.  A Virtual CFO acts as a facilitator with lenders/investors to answer their questions and present the business as an attractive proposition for them.
