What We See in This Business

Foundation Is Priced for Larger Contractors

Foundation Software licensing starts at several hundred dollars per month and scales up significantly. For a $2M subcontractor you're paying enterprise software prices for capabilities you won't use for years.

Implementation Takes Months

Foundation implementation is a project — typically 3–6 months with consultant involvement. For a small contractor who needs clean job costing now, that timeline creates a long gap where you're operating without the systems you need.

Complexity Exceeds Your Current Needs

Foundation is built for contractors running 50+ simultaneous projects with large finance teams. At $1M–$5M you have different needs — job costing, WIP, and cash flow visibility — without the complexity of an enterprise platform.

How SPM Fixes It

ControlQore Purpose-Built for Your Range

ControlQore handles job costing, WIP, cost-to-complete, cash flow forecasting, and CEO reporting — everything a $1M–$12M commercial subcontractor needs. Nothing more, nothing less.

60-Day Implementation

SPM implements ControlQore in 60 days — not 6 months. Data migration, cost code setup, historical books, job templates — all done as part of onboarding.

Included in the Monthly Engagement

ControlQore licensing and operation is included in the SPM engagement. You're not paying separately for software and separately for financial services. One monthly fee covers both.

Common Questions

Straight answers.

What's the difference between Core and Executive Financial?

Core includes ControlQore setup, job costing, cost-to-complete tracking, full bookkeeping (including vendor ACH payments, AR management, bank recs, and transaction matching), controllership, and 1 monthly CFO meeting. Executive adds monthly WIP schedule, 13-week cash flow forecast, CEO Report, and 3 CFO meetings per month. Both tiers include 60-day onboarding.

Do you handle payroll?

No. We don't handle payroll. We have vetted payroll software partners — including prevailing wage — that integrate directly with ControlQore. That's a separate cost referred through SPM.

What software do you use?

We work exclusively in ControlQore for job costing and WIP. Clients must switch to ControlQore — we set it up, migrate the data, and run it for you. We teach you how to read the numbers. You don't have to learn the software.

How long does onboarding take?

60 days. We migrate your books to the start of your last taxable year, set up ControlQore, and build your job costing structure. Fully operational in two months.

What if my AR is getting out of control?

We have a direct partnership with National Lien Services. When collections go long we connect you immediately — protecting your cash on both the forecasting side and the enforcement side. That's a separate cost but a vetted referral through SPM.

Do you work with Canadian contractors?

Yes. We serve commercial subcontractors and self-performing GCs in the US and Canada doing $1M–$12M in revenue.
