Know Where Your Money is Going.

And, every bit as important, where it's taking you.
Or not. With an AVG fractional CFO in your corner,
you'll get financials that show you not just what happened last month but that go on to look forward, projecting what's coming at you over the next
3, 6, and 12. Financials that

make it clear to you which jobs are making money
and which ones are quietly bleeding it. And strategic
analyses that guide decision making by revealing to
you how much new work you can (or must) take on
to optimize your overhead without running yourself
out of cash. And at what prices.

It Is, However, Pretty Darn Close.

Being a Great Construction CFO Isn't 3D Chess.

WORK IN PROGRESS

SCHEDULES THAT

ACTUALLY MAKE SENSE

Cash flow in construction is brutal by nature. You pay before you get paid. Draws lag. Retainage sits. And payroll hits every two weeks whether the bank has funded or not. It can make for some restless nights. We build forward-looking cash flow projections that account for draw schedules, payment obligations to subs, overhead burn, and upcoming payroll commitments. All so you can see what's coming at you before it arrives. Because running out of cash on a profitable job is one of life's cruelest ironies. And it's entirely preventable.

All of our clients face moments where the right decision isn't obvious - whether it's to take on a new job, bring on a partner, invest in equipment, hire ahead of growth, or walk away from a deal that looks good on its face but doesn't pencil on paper. This is where AVG CFOs excel. We don't just manage financials. We're your thought partner, helping you think through all of the potential consequences. Because good advice isn't telling what you want to hear. Sometimes, it's telling you what you need to hear. CEO is the gas pedal. CFO is the brake.

WISELY MAKE DECISIONS

WIP relies on the data behind it. The math is simple - four data inputs, a formula, and a five-second calculation. Issues arise when companies, for whatever the reason, fail to maintain the four data inputs accurately. The cause of this is almost always an operations issue and the fix often requires duality: a CFO who's equally capable of also serving as a COO. A CFO who can step into the field-level workflows where the source data lives. All AVG CFOs can do this. And clients always smile first time we show them a WIP run that actually makes sense.

Getting your pricing right in this business is harder than it looks, and it already looks pretty hard. Unlike most other industries, construction and real estate development requires you to spread indirect costs across a constantly shifting portfolio of jobs or projects, each with its own timeline, labor mix, and margin expectation. Price too thin and you starve your overhead. Miss your labor burden and you lose a profit center. We build pricing models grounded in your actual cost structure, designed to help you win profitable work.
