FRACTIONAL CFO FOR BRIDGE CONTRACTORS.
We run the finance function for bridge subcontractors doing $1M to $12M: job costing aligned to the way you estimate, a 13 week cash flow forecast, monthly WIP, and a CFO in the room every month. Pricing starts at $1,900 per month.
In bridge work the finance function is business development, because bonding capacity decides which jobs you can even bid. A surety reads working capital, retained equity, and a WIP schedule that ties out, so the monthly close is what raises your single-project limit. We carry falsework, cofferdams, and causeways as first-class cost codes instead of burying them in the permanent work, and we put the in-water permit calendar on the cash forecast so a missed window is a priced contingency rather than a lost season. On DOT contracts we also administer the fuel and steel adjustment clauses the estimate elected, which is money most contractors leave on the table for years.
THE THREE THINGS THAT DRAIN THE CASH.
The Surety Ceiling
Bonding capacity sets the trade's growth limit, and capacity is a function of statements the surety believes. WIP accuracy and retained equity are bridge-market business development.
The Window Hostage
In-water permits and work windows own the foundation schedule, and a missed window slides a season. Mobilization plans built around the permit calendar, with slide contingency priced, are the trade's schedule insurance.
The Invisible Structure
Falsework, cofferdams, and causeways are engineered projects inside the project that demobilize as pure cost. Temporary works carried as first-class cost codes keep the bid from donating them. (cfos-job-profitability-system) ---

You stop guessing.
You get the CFO work. Job costing built against the way you estimate, a 13 week cash forecast, monthly WIP, and a meeting every month that ends in decisions rather than a report.
Your bookkeeper keeps doing the books.
You stop touching the books.
Everything in Core, and we run the bookkeeping and the controllership as well. Nobody in your office is answering coding questions or chasing a reconciliation at month end.
