Construction Finance Expertise That Matters

Construction finance is built around the job, where revenue is recognized by progress, cost is tracked by phase, and cash is held back as retention. An accountant without construction experience can keep clean books and still misread a project's real position.

1

Job Costing

Every job accumulates cost by phase, trade, and change order, and the accounting has to follow. A specialist tracks job cost in detail and ties it to budget. A generalist records cost in aggregate and can't tell which jobs are running over, because the books were never structured by job.

2

Percentage of Completion

Construction recognizes revenue as the job progresses, which means estimating completion and earned revenue each period. A specialist applies percentage-of-completion and manages over- and under-billing. A generalist recognizes on billing and distorts every period where billing is ahead of or behind the work.

3

Retention

Customers hold back retention until a job completes, locking up cash and complicating receivables. A specialist tracks retention receivable and payable across jobs. A generalist treats it as ordinary AR and is surprised by how much cash sits in retention.

4

Change Orders

Change orders shift scope, cost, and revenue mid-job and have to be captured as they happen. A specialist accounts for change orders and their margin impact. A generalist can miss them and leave a job's revenue and cost out of sync with what was actually agreed.
