Built for Builders and Service Leaders

If your company is growing — but profit isn’t — you’re not alone. Most contractors and service businesses are leaking cash, mispricing jobs, or running without financial clarity or an execution system

  We’re here to change that.  
 

Our Coltivar OS helps you, set strategy, execute with discipline, gain financial clarity, and build a high-performing team. Whether you’re stuck, scaling, or selling, we help you unlock margin, profit, and enterprise value.

Coltivar Builds a System for Profitable Growth.

 

You don’t need another spreadsheet or pep talk, you need a system that turns chaos into control and growth into a clear path. We help you build margin, grow cash flow, and scale your business with confidence

CLARITY

See your numbers, priorities, and future clearly

ACCOUNTABILITY

Know who’s responsible — and what’s getting done

PROFITABILITY

Grow cash flow, margin, and enterprise value

In addition to providing operational and financial clarity, we also acquire and invest in businesses that meet our model.
 
Our acquisition criteria:
  • U.S.-based, privately held
  • $5M–$75M in revenue
  • $1M–$10M in EBITDA
  • 10%+ EBITDA margins
  • 3+ years of profitability
  • Owner is seeking a transition or growth partner, not just a financial buyer

We are operators — not brokers. We acquire businesses where we can embed the Coltivar OS, improve execution, grow financial performance, and protect the owner’s legacy.

So many construction and service business owners are quietly bleeding time, cash, and energy. They’re stuck solving problems all day, overwhelmed by the grind, and wondering why all their hard work isn’t paying off. It’s frustrating — and lonely.

We help them step back, find the leaks, and finally build a business that gives more than it takes. More profit. More freedom. And a clear path forward.
