We help owner-led businesses in the built environment—general contractors, trade partners, and allied firms with 10–250 employees—bring discipline to how work is won, delivered, and measured, strengthening execution, financial control, and enterprise value. Based in North Carolina, we serve clients across the Carolinas, the Southeast, and select markets nationwide.
Business Transformation at the Intersection of:
Origination, Execution, and Measurement
Origination
How work is found, qualified, and pursued. This includes business development, sales discipline, market focus, and pipeline integrity. Strong origination ensures the right work enters the business—work that fits strategy, margin requirements, and operational capacity—rather than chasing volume that creates downstream risk.
Execution
How work is delivered once it is won. This covers operations, project management, labor and resource deployment, cost control, and day-to-day decision-making. Disciplined execution turns plans into results by ensuring scope, schedule, and margin are actively managed—not assumed—throughout delivery.
Measurement
How performance is tracked, understood, and corrected. This includes financial reporting, KPIs, job costing, cash flow visibility, and variance analysis. Effective measurement creates a single source of truth so leaders can see what is happening early, make informed decisions, and protect profit before problems become permanent.
Systematize → Scale → Capitalize
Shapcott - Lauber is the Right Fit for:
Owner-led businesses in the built environment
General contractors, trade partners, and allied firms across construction, manufacturing, logistics, and industrial services—typically with 10–250 employees—where execution, margin control, and cash discipline matter every day.
Companies focused on Build → Scale → Harvest Value.
Organizations ready to strengthen operating structure, install durable systems, protect margin, and create true owner optionality—whether that means stepping back, planning succession, or preparing for an eventual exit.
Leaders who want strategy and implementation
Firms that value clear thinking backed by hands-on execution: fixed scope engagements, transparent pricing, and measurable KPIs—designed to deliver results, not just recommendations.
Leadership teams open to clarity and accountability
Owners and managers willing to replace heroic effort with a repeatable operating rhythm, supported by coaching, clear roles, and disciplined decision-making.
Businesses under margin or capacity pressure
Companies experiencing profit leakage (job costing gaps, change-order breakdowns, cash conversion issues) or misalignment between demand and capacity—and looking for a focused 90-day plan to stabilize performance and regain control.
