The chaos.
Northern Contracting Making The Company Bankable was struggling with:
- 01Construction subcontractor running 12 active projects across RAK and Sharjah with zero software systems
- 02Everything tracked on physical copies, no centralized record of project status, costs, or invoicing
- 03Previous accountant failed, leaving the books in a state the bank could not evaluate
- 04Bank credit line application blocked because the business could not produce documentation
- 05Developer demanded 3 million banker cheque the business could not produce, triggering cash flow death spiral
The implementation.
OSForBiz positioned the engagement around making the company bankable rather than selling software. The backbone covers project accounting, cost tracking, invoicing discipline, and the documentation set the bank actually needs to evaluate the credit line application. Built for a family decision structure spanning uncle, wife, and father.
