When it comes to accounting, the construction and homebuilding industries are among the most complex. Construction contractors have to see each and every project as its own revenue stream, timeframes are rarely the same and each job has its own unique expenses and financial challenges. Cost and availability of production inputs can fluctuate and require special, careful, tracking and planning. Long-term contracts mean that revenue recognition and cash management carry special considerations in construction. Capital investments must be considered in light of uncertain economic conditions.

It is vital that construction companies and homebuilders work with accounting professionals that understand the specialized rules and requirements of their respective industries while staying on top of all aspects of their finances. Their accountants must be expert at managing a lot of moving parts and have the depth to provide a wide range of financial and business consulting.
