FRACTIONAL CFO FOR SOLAR CONTRACTORS.
We run the finance function for solar 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.
Solar's economics got rewritten twice, so the first thing we do is map the pipeline against two clocks. Section 48E's 30 percent credit now runs on one of two paths only, safe-harbored work that began construction by July 4, 2026 and has to hold continuity, or post-deadline work racing a December 31, 2027 in-service cliff, and a project not assigned to a clock has an unknown margin. We treat the audit file as the largest line item on the job, because begin-construction evidence, physical work records, binding contracts, and Foreign Entity of Concern content documentation are what decide whether the credit exists at all. Then we cost the operating model choice, since the residential 25D credit died December 31, 2025 and the pivot to commercial, storage, or service each carries its own cash curve.
THE THREE THINGS THAT DRAIN THE CASH.
The Countdown Book
Every commercial project now lives on one of two clocks: safe-harbored backlog racing continuity into 2030, or post-deadline work racing the December 31, 2027 in-service cliff. A pipeline that's not mapped against those clocks is a pipeline whose margins are unknown.
The Audit File
Begin-construction evidence, physical-work records, binding contracts, and FEOC content documentation decide whether the 30 percent credit exists. The paperwork isn't compliance overhead; it's the largest single line item on the project.
The Model Reset
The residential credit's death repriced an entire business model overnight. Pivot decisions (commercial, storage, service) are operating-model choices with cash curves attached, and the operators who chose deliberately beat the ones who drifted. (cfos-operating-model-definition) ---

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.
