I help fractional CFOs and accountants build multiple 6 and 7-figure advisory firms through coaching and community.

If you run a construction company, growth was supposed to make money stress go away.

Instead, revenue is up, profit is flat, and it still feels like you are one bad month away from a big problem.

Most contractors we work with are:
• Bidding 20 to 25 percent and banking a fraction of that
• Losing sleep over payroll and upcoming draws
• Unsure which jobs are actually making money
• Looking at financials that feel like a foreign language
• Making big decisions based on gut, not clear numbers

At Civil CFO, we provide Fractional CFO services for $10M to $70M contractors.

Our job is simple to say and hard to do - we bridge the gap between bid and bank so you can consistently hit 10 percent plus net profit, with clear cash flow and confidence in every major decision.

What we do for construction companies:
• Build clear forecasts and cash flow plans so you know what is coming before it hits
• Install practical job cost and WIP reporting so you can see which projects are winning or bleeding
• Help you set realistic, data backed profit targets and hold the team accountable to them
• Prepare bank, bonding, and lender ready financial packages
• Sit at the leadership table as your finance partner for growth, exits, or succession

We are not your bookkeeper or tax accountant.

We work alongside them and give you the forward looking financial strategy they cannot provide.

Why this matters:
• More cash in the bank and less time worrying about it
• Cleaner, more profitable jobs
• Reduced debt and stronger balance sheet
• A company that is ready for whatever you want next - growth, sale, or hand off

I founded Civil CFO so construction CEOs did not have to figure this out alone. Our team has worked with contractors across the country to turn financial confusion into a clear plan and disciplined execution.

If you are a contractor between $10M and $70M and you are tired of bidding 25 percent and banking 3, let's talk.

I help fractional CFOs and accountants start, scale, and optimize their advisory services.

Any better way to spend two days? 
Civil construction + operations excellence. 

I've had a great week in PHX at Benjamin Holmgren's Operations Excellence workshop. 

Having the chance to learn from Zack Estes and some pretty stellar leaders in the civil world has been a blessing. 

The road show continues in 2 weeks in Orlando at the NAHB International Builders'​ Show!

Hello! I'm Melissa. 


I am not just your average CPA; I've turned down six-figure job offers because they didn't align with my values. 

Outside work, I am a proud rescuer of 2 dogs and 2 cats, and yes, one of my dogs is deaf, yet the most attentive listener you'll find. 

My sense of humor? Let’s just say I’ve cracked jokes with executives of million and billion-dollar companies.
