FRACTIONAL CFO FOR TUNNEL CONTRACTORS.
We run the finance function for tunnel 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 tunneling the geotechnical baseline report is the contract, so the daily log is the second set of books. The baseline states what the bid was entitled to assume and the differing-site-conditions clause allocates whatever turns out otherwise, which means day-by-day documentation is the only evidence that ever decides which one happened. We code downtime by cause, separating conditions, machine, logistics, and owner, because continuous operations burn crew, power, and plant around the clock while the advance rate stalls and a stopped heading costs the same as a producing one. Then we get honest about the capital, since a boring machine and its supporting plant are project-scale assets with salvage assumptions baked into the bid, and ownership, refurbishment, and residual value decide the price before the strata get a vote.
THE THREE THINGS THAT DRAIN THE CASH.
The Baseline Ledger
The GBR states what the bid may assume, the DSC clause allocates what differs, and the shift log proves which one happened. Ground documentation isn't paperwork; it's the trade's second set of books.
The Sleepless Burn
Continuous operations mean the daily cost never pauses while the advance rate does. Downtime coded by cause (ground, machine, logistics, owner) is the only way the stopped-heading argument ever pays.
The Buried Capital
The machine and plant are project-scale capital with salvage assumptions built into the bid. Cost-basis honesty (ownership, refurbishment, residual) decides the price before the ground gets a vote. (cfos-working-capital-system) ---
