Financials That Know Which Jobs Made Money

Book a call

A contractor's P&L can look healthy for months while individual jobs bleed. Cash from progress billings on the new project covers the losses on the old one, retainage sits uncollected, and nobody finds out which estimates were wrong until the work is done and the margin is gone. Standard bookkeeping was never built for a business where revenue is earned over time, billed on a schedule, and settled months after the last truck leaves the site.

Precision Financial has worked with contracting businesses from small local firms to private equity-backed companies doing $100 million a year with hundreds of employees, including ESOP-owned companies, prime contractors, and subcontractors. We put job costing and WIP reporting at the center of the accounting, so the financials describe the business the way a builder actually experiences it: one job at a time.

How We Help

Job costing that holds up

We design the cost structure so labor, materials, subs, and equipment land on the right job, then keep it maintained so job reports stay trustworthy instead of decaying after setup.

WIP schedules done properly

Percentage of completion, earned revenue, and over/under billing calculated each period. A correct WIP schedule is the single truest picture of a contractor's performance, and we treat it that way.

Progress billing and retainage tracking

Billings tied to contract schedules of values, retainage receivable tracked to the dollar, so you always know what has been earned, what has been billed, and what is still held.

Bonding-ready financials

Sureties and their underwriters read contractor statements with specific expectations. We keep the balance sheet, WIP, and job history in a condition that supports the bonding capacity you need to bid.

Estimate versus actual review

Completed-job results fed back against original estimates, so bidding gets sharper with every project instead of repeating the same optimistic assumptions.

Cash forecasting around the job cycle

Payroll is weekly and receivables are not. We forecast cash across billing cycles, retainage releases, and mobilization costs so growth does not turn into a cash squeeze.

Who It's For

General contractors and subs who cannot say with confidence which current jobs are profitable, firms whose bonding agent has started asking harder questions, companies moving from completed-contract habits to percentage-of-completion reporting, and job-based businesses outside construction, like fabricators and specialty installers, whose economics work the same way.

Why Precision

WIP schedules are where most outside accountants get quietly out of their depth, and where our experience is deepest. We have supported contractors through surety reviews, lender scrutiny, and ownership structures from family-held to ESOP to private equity. Our CFOs have sat in the seat for more than a hundred companies, and in construction that seat time shows up as fewer surprises at job closeout.
