What Our Clients Are Saying

My business was making money but it always felt harder than it should. Coltivar showed us how to tighten things up and actually enjoy running the business again. I feel like I finally have freedom and we have more cash flow than ever!

I used to feel like we were running hard but not getting ahead at all. Jobs kept coming in, but the numbers never added up. Coltivar helped us make sense of it all, and now our margins are solid, cash flow’s steady, and I finally know exactly where we stand.

ABOUT THE FOUNDER

Steve Coughran founded Coltivar in 2009 after recognizing a gap between strategy and finance that was holding companies back. At Ernst & Young and later as a CFO, he saw too many businesses create strategies filled with buzzwords and financial plans built on guesses—leading to growth without value, revenue without cash flow, and owners stuck in the day-to-day.

Coltivar was built to change that. Named from the Italian coltivare—“to grow through labor and attention”—the firm helps companies design systems that create leverage for better results with less effort. Steve has led turnarounds creating nearly $1B in value, scaled a 2,000MW renewable energy portfolio, closed major acquisitions, raised over $100M in equity, and boosted efficiency by 35%.

Today, Coltivar combines strategy with execution so change is practical, measurable, and built to last—and when the fit is right, it invests in or acquires the companies it partners with to drive sustainable growth.
