A construction business plan should cover your specialty and project types, licensing and bonding requirements, bid and estimating strategy, equipment and crew plan, cash flow projections that account for progress billing and retainage, and a pipeline plan for winning consistent work.
It varies enormously by trade and scale -- a specialty subcontractor can start for $10K-$50K, while a general contractor with equipment and crews may need $100K-$250K+ plus working capital to float payroll between draws. Co-COO models costs for your specific trade and project size.
Yes. Co-COO generates SBA-aligned plans with the financial projections lenders expect. Surety companies also weigh your business plan and financials when setting bonding capacity, so a documented plan supports both.
Yes. The plan addresses state contractor licensing costs and requirements, and treats bonding capacity as a growth constraint -- mapping how retained earnings and clean financials expand the size of jobs you can bid over time.
