FRACTIONAL CFO FOR CONCRETE FLATWORK CONTRACTORS.
We run the finance function for concrete flatwork 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.
Flatwork sells a tolerance, so the finance function starts by pricing one. Conventional, flat, very flat, and superflat are four different production systems with four different costs, and selling F numbers without pricing F numbers donates the difference between a bull float and a laser screed. We code the finishing window separately from placement, because the slab sets on chemistry's schedule and the overtime that follows is the trade's defining cost, buried inside a blended rate on most jobs. We also treat the ASTM E1155 test as a billable event on the schedule, since flatness measured within 72 hours of final troweling is the slab as placed and anything later is whatever the building did to it.
THE THREE THINGS THAT DRAIN THE CASH.
The 72-Hour Window
FF/FL numbers measured within 72 hours of troweling are the slab as placed; anything measured later is the slab as abused. The contractor who commissions and bills the timely test owns the acceptance record; the one who skips it owns whatever the building does to the slab afterward.
The Tolerance Tier
Conventional, flat, very flat, superflat: each tier is a different production system with different cost. Selling F-numbers without pricing F-numbers donates the difference between a bull float and a laser screed.
The Finishing Clock
The slab sets on chemistry's schedule and the crew stays until it's done. Finishing-window labor coded inside a blended rate hides the trade's defining overtime pattern, job after job. (cfos-job-profitability-system) ---

Range reflects the three tiers below. Which one you're in depends on how much of the work you want off your desk. No payroll. No hidden line items.
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.
We do the books. No payroll.
Every job shows its margin while it's still running.
Everything in Executive, plus the job costing and WIP platform set up, loaded with your cost codes, and managed for you every month. You never have to learn it.
We do the job costing.
Prevailing wage note: Concrete Flatwork work often runs on public bids, which means certified payroll and wage classifications have to line up with the job cost record. ControlQore holds the classification against the cost code, so the certified report and the job cost report come from the same data instead of somebody keying the same numbers twice every week.
