4050 · Business Analysis & Forecasting

Your QuickBooks holds the answers. We surface them.

Most owners run on two numbers: the bank balance and a feeling. We turn your existing books into the ones that actually drive decisions — margin by job, crew, and truck; a rolling cash forecast; and a monthly dashboard you can read in five minutes.

4052

Job Costing & Margin

Which jobs, crews, and trucks make money — and which are subsidized by the rest. The single highest-leverage report a field-service business can own.

4053

Cash Flow Forecasting

A rolling forecast built on your own history and seasonality, so payroll in the slow months is funded before the slow months arrive.

4054

KPIs & Owner Dashboard

A one-page monthly dashboard: revenue, margin by segment, cash runway, receivables aging, and the two or three numbers unique to how you run.

4055

Budgets & Lender Packages

Budgets that get compared to actuals instead of filed away, and financial packages formatted for the bank or bonding company that has to say yes.

Analysis, answered.

How is this different from the bookkeeping engagement?

Bookkeeping records what happened and keeps it reconciled. Analysis interprets it: costing jobs, projecting cash, and turning the ledger into decisions. Bookkeeping is the foundation — analysis is the building. Most clients run both; some bring clean books from elsewhere and engage us for the analysis alone.

Which KPIs actually matter for a field-service business?

Fewer than the dashboards vendors sell. For most trades: gross margin by segment, revenue per crew or truck per day, receivables aging, and cash runway in weeks. Trucking adds cost per mile; service businesses add agreement counts and renewal rates. We’d rather you watch four numbers monthly than forty numbers never.

Do I need special software for the dashboard?

No. The reporting is built from the accounting platform you already run, delivered as a readable monthly package through the portal. If your operations software (dispatch, estimating) holds useful data, we can fold it in — but nothing new to buy is the default.
