Most companies can't see where their own money is leaking out.
I can. Usually inside the first hour. I've spent 27 years running acquisition, construction, and operations at a scale most consultants only theorize about — and I use that to find the exact gaps costing you money, then hand you the fix.
Field Case — AnonymizedRegional Builder · $5M/yr
A builder brought me into their office — high-rise location, paid staff parking, twenty people on payroll — to find out why margins kept shrinking. I didn't need the week they'd budgeted for me. I needed about an hour. Here's what I found, and what it was costing them, per year:
No owned crews — 100% subcontracted labor
+30%on every build
No material inventory system — GC marks up everything they source
+25%on all materials
Leftover materials walk off-site with contractors after each job
+10%pure loss
Renting a high-rise office instead of owning industrial space with storage
No equityno depreciation write-off
20 staff supporting a fraction of the revenue one operator can run alone
70%of headcount, cuttable
What it added up to, annually6-figure bleed
This didn't come from a week of financial modeling. It came from four direct questions and knowing exactly what the answers meant. That's what you're paying for — not my time, my pattern recognition.
This isn't just real estate.
The gaps are the same whether you're a builder, a GC, a contractor, a developer, or running any business with real overhead and real crews. Rented space that should be owned. Subcontracted work that should be staffed. Materials that walk off-site. Twenty people doing what three could. I've found this same pattern in company after company, for over two decades — and I can usually find yours faster than you'd think.
