You’re consolidating P&L across 5 acquired companies, forecasting recurring inspection revenue, and your board wants monthly financials that take a week to compile.
Inspection contract revenue, deficiency repair income, new installation revenue, and emergency service calls — each with different margin profiles, each tracked in a different system from each acquisition. We build the financial layer that gives you one source of truth.

The Problem
Fire and life safety has a financial profile that PE investors find irresistible: mandated annual inspections create predictable recurring revenue. But the financial reality inside the company is messier than the investment thesis suggests. Inspection contract revenue, deficiency repair revenue, new system installation revenue, and emergency service revenue have very different margin profiles and recognition timing. Inspection contracts are often priced aggressively to win the door — profitability depends on deficiency-to-repair conversion that your finance team cannot track because it lives in the operations system, not the ERP.
If you have grown through acquisition, every acquired company brought a different chart of accounts, a different ERP, and a different approach to contract pricing. Some companies price inspections per device. Others price per building. Others bundle inspections with monitoring. Normalizing revenue data across these models for consolidated reporting is a manual exercise that takes your finance team days every month. Meanwhile, your PE sponsor wants to understand recurring revenue quality, contract renewal rates, and expansion revenue from deficiency repairs — metrics that require connecting financial and operational data.
We build a unified financial data model that connects your ERP, inspection platforms, and dispatch systems. Multi-location P&L, inspection contract profitability, deficiency repair revenue tracking, recurring revenue forecasting, and automated investor reporting — all calculated consistently, all updated automatically.
What You Get
Multi-Location P&L
Revenue, COGS, and gross margin by branch — normalized across different chart-of-accounts structures from each acquisition. Inspection contract vs. deficiency repair vs. new installation revenue broken out separately.
Inspection Contract Profitability
Revenue per contract, cost-to-serve by system type and building complexity, renewal rates, and margin analysis — so you know which contracts make money and which are loss leaders that depend on deficiency conversion.
Recurring Revenue Forecasting
Contract renewal pipeline, at-risk contracts, expansion revenue from deficiency repairs, and projected recurring revenue by quarter — the narrative your PE sponsor needs to validate the investment thesis.
Deficiency Repair Revenue Tracking
Revenue from deficiency-identified repairs traced back to the originating inspection — connecting the financial outcome to the operational workflow that generates it.
Post-Acquisition Financial Consolidation
Chart-of-accounts normalization, intercompany elimination, and consolidated financial statements across acquired entities — automated instead of manual.
Automated Investor Reporting
Monthly financial rollups generated automatically — formatted for board meetings, PE investor updates, and lender covenants. Recurring revenue metrics, contract economics, and expansion revenue highlighted.
How We Work
We follow a three-phase approach that most Fire & Life Safety platforms complete in weeks, not quarters.
Assessment
We audit your operational systems — inspection platforms, dispatch tools, ERP, compliance records — map data flows across branches, jurisdictions, and acquisitions, and identify the 5–10 reports that would have the most impact if they ran automatically. You get a clear assessment of where compliance visibility breaks down and what to fix first — not a sales pitch.
Build
We connect your systems through a normalized data warehouse. ITM scheduling, deficiency workflows, AHJ compliance tracking, inspection contract analytics, and financial reporting — all built on a unified architecture. Role-based access so branch managers see their jurisdictions and leadership sees the portfolio. Works with InspectPoint, Essential, BuildOps, ServiceTrade, or whatever combination you run.
Adoption
We train your team to use the dashboards and own the data. The goal is an organization that does not need us to pull a report. Your operations and compliance teams become self-sufficient within weeks.
