Who I work with

I work with general contractors and specialty contractors across the US and Canada, in the $1M to $20M range, including here in Philadelphia. Owners who are tired of being the default escalation point on every change order and every crew issue.

The pattern I see most

Margins that erode after the job starts. Backlog and job mix that swing too much. An owner pulled into daily firefighting because nobody else has the authority to solve it.

What we do about it

We tighten project selection so you bid the work you actually want. We build change-order discipline so margin holds from estimate to closeout. We give your PMs and superintendents real authority, so problems get solved without you, and the work that comes in is more predictable and better qualified.

One $16M general contractor stabilized backlog and improved job margins by 3 points.
The work that gets you there compounds over time using the Value Builder System.

Questions Business Owners Ask

Do you work with both general contractors and specialty trades?

Yes. General contractors and specialty contractors in the $1M to $20M range, in Philadelphia and across the US and Canada.

I don't have time to sit in coaching all day.

Good. The work is built for busy owners. Tight sessions, a written recap with named action items after each one, and systems your team can run without you.

Is this only useful if I want to sell?

No. Most owners start with margin and owner-dependency problems. A more valuablecompany is the byproduct, and it gives you options for succession, sale, or staying in on yourterms.

Where are you located?

Bryn Mawr, Pennsylvania. I work across the Philadelphia region and throughout the US and Canada.
