So Why Does It Still Feel So Fragile?
Revenue is up, projects are moving along, and your team is growing. But, the structure hasn’t kept pace, and it’s starting to hold you back.
- Job costing & profits are unclear
- Your systems all depend on you
- Compliance risks from licensing, insurance coverage, contractor classifications, and state or federal mandates are unpredictable.
If your business is doing between $2 – $50 million in revenue a year, it’s impossible to grow if everything depends on your memory, availability, or reaction time.
You Do Not Need More Staff.
You Need Executive Level Structure.
Embedded Operations Support for Contractors in NY
Mary provides part-time support for Residential Contractors in New York that have outgrown their systems.
Her operational support (sometimes called fractional operations support) injects executive level operations and compliance leadership directly into your business, without the commitment of expanding your staff. Mary focuses on:
- Stabilizing workers comp exposure
- Strengthening insurance positioning
- Cleaning up payroll and HR systems
- Implementing job costing that reveals true profits
- Drafting company procedure and operating manuals tailored to your business to assist in day to day and training new hires
Mary doesn’t advise from the sidelines. She embeds, leads, and implements the solutions you need to reach the next level.
How It Works
Getting Your Business Back Under Control
Mary brings more than 35 years of hands-on experience in construction operations and sales. The goal is simple: figure out where things stand today and help put the right structure in place so the business runs smoother and stops depending on everything falling on the owner.
Take a Real Look at the Business
First we take a look at how the business is actually running day to day — payroll, workers comp, insurance, HR, compliance, job costing, and paperwork.
This helps identify where the risks are, what might be slipping through the cracks, and where a few changes could make the biggest difference.
Get the Foundation Straight
Next we tighten up the operational side of the business. That means cleaning up systems, fixing compliance gaps, organizing documentation, and putting simple procedures in place so things run consistently and nothing important gets missed.
The goal is a business that feels more organized and less reactive.
Know Your Numbers and Protect Your Profit
Once the basics are solid, we focus on getting clearer visibility into job costs and what each job is actually making in profit.
When owners can see their numbers clearly, the business becomes easier to manage, decisions get simpler, and the company stops feeling chaotic.
The result is a business that runs more smoothly and doesn’t depend on one person carrying everything.

Is this consulting a good fit for your business?
This consulting service is for established contractors who:
- Are residential contractors
- Run $2–50M in annual revenue
- Have 5-50 employees
- Are owner-led or founder-run
- Have grown faster than their systems
- Need more business support
Mary is not the right fit if:
- You’re under $1–2M and still very lean
- You want someone to “just do admin work”
- You’re unwilling to fix systems that aren't working
It is a fit if you want fewer risks, clearer numbers, and a business that doesn’t depend entirely on you.

Frequently Asked Questions
No. This is part-time executive level operations and compliance leadership designed specifically for residential contractors in NY. This is sometimes called fractional operations support.
To cover the full scope of what Mary offers to contractors you would need to hire:
- Operations Manager
- HR / Payroll Administrator
- Compliance & Insurance Coordinator
- Financial / Job Cost Analyst
In the NY Metro / Hudson Valley market, those roles typically cost:
- $90k–$140k per role, plus benefits

This model gives you experienced leadership across all functions, only for the hours you actually need.
Most operations managers focus on production and field coordination. They are not deeply experienced in insurance positioning, audit readiness, compliance risk in New York, or building financial visibility through structured margin reporting.
Mary’s expertise is specifically aligned with residential contractors in New York. She has over two decades of experience implementing systems that work together to mitigate the pressure of NYS labor regulations, workers comp classifications, insurance renewals, and the impact payroll structure has on exposure and profit.
Instead of hiring multiple senior roles and hoping they collaborate well, you gain integrated oversight. The result is synergy, not silos.
Most engagements are structured as ongoing monthly retainers without a long-term commitment. How long we work together depends on the size your your company, the complexity of your processes, and your goals.
No. Mary’s goal is to make your team stronger, not replace them. Clear systems reduce confusion and improve accountability so your people can spend their time executing, instead of always reacting to what comes next.
Yes. All operational reviews and ongoing engagements are confidential and strategic.
Mary offers several tiers of engagements so that the support you receive is tailored specifically to your needs. You can review the tiers and Mary will cover pricing with you during your Intro call.
