Built for the way contractors actually work.
Straight answers.
No legalese.
Don't see your question? Call us — we'd rather have a 10-minute conversation than write another paragraph.
If you work on California public works projects of any meaningful size, yes. The DIR (Department of Industrial Relations) requires contractors and subcontractors to register annually. We handle registration, renewals, and the project-level PWC-100 filings so nothing gets missed.
On public works, you must submit weekly payroll reports showing every worker, their classification, hours, wages, and fringes. California requires electronic submission through the DIR eCPR system. We prepare and file it for you, every week, in the format the state expects.
Bookkeepers track money. We track compliance, operations, and the construction-specific workflows your books depend on. We work alongside your bookkeeper, not in place of them.
Both. We've helped two-person shops survive their first public works job and helped established GCs build the back office for an eight-figure pipeline. The work scales to where you are.
We scope every engagement to the work. Most clients land in a flat monthly retainer for ongoing compliance and operations, with project-based pricing for audits or one-time implementations. We'll quote you after the discovery call.
Most engagements kick off within one to two weeks of the discovery call. Urgent compliance issues — a pending audit, a late payroll filing — we triage faster.

We were drowning in DIR paperwork before C. Brown stepped in. Two months later our certified payroll is on autopilot and we actually understand our own numbers.
