Founded in 1946, Margolin, Winer & Evens LLP is one of the largest accounting and business advisory firms in the Northeast. Our specialized Construction Services Practice Group is widely recognized as one of the region’s best resources available to the construction industry.

The experience of our highly skilled, seasoned construction professionals provides real estate owners, general contractors and sub-contractors unmatched expertise in virtually every aspect of construction management. From walking the job site to designing control systems, our focus is on helping you bring your projects to a successful completion on-time, on-budget and with maximum profitability.

Since cash flow in the construction industry is project-driven and revenues are primarily fixed by contract, the profitability of a job is wholly dependent upon effective cost controls. Project costing should be based on careful estimating and job monitoring, coupled with constant cost-to-complete information from the field. Without the proper systems to identify potential trouble spots and track work order changes, the profitability margin on any job is at risk.

MWE construction services professionals are expert at devising systems that protect cash flow and preserve job profitability. Through bi-monthly or weekly forecasts comparing job progress against plans and work order changes, we can help close unforeseen or unnoticed gaps that interrupt your liquidity. We can also coordinate your billing and receipts systems with the estimating and purchasing functions, and assist you in negotiating reduced contract retainage terms.

The design and implementation of systems to keep your project moving smoothly is based on a thorough walk of the job site. Following a review of the project contract and verification of job status, MWE will develop a plan of administration to reduce the probability of errors, cost overruns and scheduling problems. The plan will include standards for documenting the scope of work, processing estimates, scheduling and monitoring work performed, and tracking work change orders and costs-to-complete.

In addition to cash flow, budgeting, cost containment and job planning, we can advise you on financing, compliance and human resources, as well as general accounting and tax planning. We apply advanced tax planning and financial strategies in multiple ways to enhance opportunities for the profitability and growth of your company.

There is virtually no stone we haven’t overturned on a construction site.

In addition to our vast construction experience, MWE also has relationships with many of the sureties and lenders in the region. Bonding companies know they can rely on our industry knowledge in presenting financial statements that are in conformity with accepted standards. The appropriate presentation of this data can mean the difference in the obtaining of bonding or credit.

Planning is key to the long-term success of any business. For contractors and sub-contractors whose businesses are intrinsically linked to their personal finances, it is especially critical to plan for future management and ownership. A well-designed business succession plan encompasses not only the transfer of ownership rights and management responsibilities, but also incorporates effective estate and retirement planning. MWE’s experts can assist you in evaluating available options for preserving the success of your company following your retirement or death. We will devise a succession strategy and estate and retirement plan that achieves your personal financial goals and assures the future viability of the company, while protecting its value to your heirs.

The experts who comprise our Construction Services Practice Group represent the highest standards of excellence and achievement in the field. Many are active in leading professional associations and serve on specialized committees in order to remain current with new industry trends and developments. Group members also frequently lecture to trade and professional organizations and contribute articles to leading journals and business publications.

As your construction consultants, we will be there with you every step of the way, building a sound management foundation for your project or company’s ultimate success. We call it turning vision into value. You’ll call it one of the best construction decisions you’ve ever made.
