Fractional CFO for Manufacturing Companies
Senior financial leadership for $1M–$50M makers and producers — so you know your true cost per product, protect margin as you grow, and invest in equipment with confidence.
The challenge — and what changes
The challenge
- You don’t know your true cost per product or job
- Revenue is up, but profit isn’t following
- Cash is tied up in inventory and work-in-process
- Equipment and capacity decisions feel like gambles
What changes
- Clear product- and job-level profitability
- Margins that grow with the top line
- Working capital freed up to fund the business
- Capital decisions backed by real numbers
Questions manufacturers ask
We build costing that captures materials, labor, machine time, and overhead — so pricing and product-mix decisions are grounded in reality instead of averages.
Usually into inventory, work-in-process, under-priced jobs, or overhead that scaled faster than margin. We isolate exactly where it’s leaking and put controls around it.
Yes. We model the cash, payback, and margin impact of capital purchases so you can invest — or wait — with real numbers behind the call.
Rarely. We work with what you already have, like QuickBooks, and add a reporting layer on top. If a change is truly warranted, we’ll show you why.
Most manufacturers have clearer margins and cash visibility within the first 60–90 days.
