    A Capital Advisory Approach

    We work directly with private capital sources and specialty lenders who understand construction. That means funding structured around draw schedules, project milestones, and contract receivables. Not generic terms from a bank that doesn't know the industry.

    • Familiar with construction draw schedules
    • Experience supporting multi-project operators
    • Discreet and direct communication
    • Long-term capital access as operations expand

    Representative Structures

    Selected engagements from recent capital structuring work. Identifying details have been generalized for confidentiality.

    Situation

    Commercial general contractor, Northeast region. A $22M operator awarded a $6.4M municipal project with a 10 percent retainage holdback and staggered progress billing that created a mobilization gap ahead of schedule commencement.

    Structure Deployed

    Evaluated the operator's existing bank line first and confirmed insufficient availability for the mobilization timeline. Structured a project-specific bridge facility against the signed contract and progress billing schedule, sized to the mobilization requirement rather than the full project value.

    Outcome

    Funded in 7 business days. Operator commenced mobilization on the contracted start date. Facility retired in full upon receipt of the third progress payment.

    Situation

    Mechanical subcontractor, Mid-Atlantic region. A $31M HVAC and plumbing subcontractor carrying $3.8M in net-60 receivables across four active commercial projects, with a payroll gap created by a delayed payment from a primary general contractor.

    Structure Deployed

    Structured a $1.2M receivables-backed facility against approved progress billings, advancing 80 percent against verified pay applications. Conventional bank line was retained for ongoing operations to preserve the operator's existing banking relationship.

    Outcome

    Closed in 11 business days. Payroll obligations met without interruption across four active jobsites. Facility utilization decreased to zero within four months as the delayed payment cleared.

    Situation

    Site work and excavation contractor, Southeast region. A $14M operator pursuing a $2.1M equipment package to bid a series of larger infrastructure projects coming to market over a 12-month window.

    Structure Deployed

    Recommended against a short-term bridge structure. The balance sheet supported a conventional equipment finance package at materially lower cost. Coordinated the financing through an institutional lending partner aligned with the operator's growth profile.

    Outcome

    Closed a $2.3M conventional equipment facility within 21 days. Operator deployed the equipment across two awarded contracts in the following quarter. Cost of capital approximately 55 percent below the bridge alternative initially considered.
