Industry knowledge matters, and like a contractor’s trade—roofing, electrical or excavation—CPAs also have specialties. Partnering with a construction CPA who understands the industry results in higher quality information with the appropriate disclosures and schedules that your surety or banker looks for when evaluating bonding and lines of credit. That means faster decisions and higher levels of bonding and credit.
The benefits don’t stop there. A construction CPA understands cost allocations and estimating, and the cyclical nature of the business. That way they can partner with you to understand profit fade trends, manage cash flow, benchmark against competitors, and minimize taxes.
