Fractional CFO & COO
serving Broken Arrow.

Broken Arrow is one of Oklahoma's fastest-growing cities and home to a strong base of manufacturing, professional services, and family-owned businesses. Most of them in the $1M–$20M range are making big decisions without the financial and operational leadership to back them up. That's a solvable problem.

What the Work Covers in Broken Arrow

CFO and COO leadership.
One engagement.

Broken Arrow businesses in the $1M to $20M range get both financial and operational leadership — the CFO function and the COO function — in a single engagement. For most businesses in Broken Arrow's manufacturing, logistics, and construction economy, financial problems and operational problems are intertwined. An operating partner addresses both.

01
Financial Leadership (CFO Function)

Cash flow management, financial reporting, forecasting, margin analysis, and the financial strategy that gives Broken Arrow business owners a real picture of where the business is and where it's going. The CFO work that most Broken Arrow businesses in the $1M to $20M range are missing.

02
Operations Leadership (COO Function)

Process design, team structure, accountability systems, and the operational infrastructure that lets Broken Arrow businesses scale without the owner in every decision. The COO work that turns a founder-dependent business into one that runs on systems.

03
Integrated Financial and Operational Strategy

The intersection of finance and operations is where most Broken Arrow business problems actually live. Cash flow problems that trace to operational inefficiencies. Margin compression that comes from process waste. An operating partner sees both sides and addresses both.

04
Business Turnaround Support

When Broken Arrow businesses are under financial or operational pressure — declining margins, cash crisis, execution breakdown — a fractional operating partner provides the senior leadership to stabilize and rebuild. Both financial triage and operational restructuring.

05
Exit and Succession Preparation

Preparing Broken Arrow businesses for a sale or transition requires both clean financials and documented operations. An operating partner builds both — the financial picture buyers and lenders need to see and the operational infrastructure that shows the business runs as a system.

When You Need Both

The Broken Arrow businesses that benefit most
from an operating partner.

01
The problems are financial and operational

When cash is tight AND operations are breaking, two separate fractional hires is expensive and creates coordination problems. A single operating partner who sees both functions addresses them as the integrated problems they actually are in most Broken Arrow businesses.

02
The owner is doing the CFO and COO job

In many Broken Arrow businesses in the $2M to $10M range, the founder is handling financial decisions and operational decisions personally. An operating partner takes both functions off the owner's plate in one engagement.

03
The business is growing past its original structure

Broken Arrow businesses that were built for $1M are breaking at $5M. The financial reporting doesn't scale, the operational processes don't scale, and the team structure doesn't scale. An operating partner rebuilds all three.

04
A major transition is coming

Sale, acquisition, partner change, or ownership succession — transitions require the business to look good financially AND operationally. An operating partner prepares both sides simultaneously rather than sequentially.

05
The business needs a senior leader without the full-time cost

A full-time CFO and a full-time COO in Broken Arrow would cost $300,000 to $400,000 annually in combined salary. A fractional operating partner delivers both functions for a fraction of that — and only for the hours and scope the Broken Arrow business actually needs.

06
Turnaround is needed fast

When a Broken Arrow business is under pressure — financial, operational, or both — speed matters. A fractional operating partner who can assess both functions quickly and act on both simultaneously gets the business stabilized faster than two separate advisors working in sequence.

How an Engagement Works in Broken Arrow

One engagement.
Both functions.

Step 01

Business Assessment

A full-picture assessment of the Broken Arrow business — financial state, operational gaps, team structure, and the specific problems that need to be addressed first. Both sides assessed simultaneously so the priorities are set correctly.

Step 02

Integrated Priority List

A single priority list that covers both the financial and operational work — in the right order. The financial fixes that unblock operational progress. The operational changes that improve financial performance. Sequenced to get maximum impact quickly.

Step 03

Build Both Functions

Implement the financial infrastructure and the operational infrastructure the Broken Arrow business needs — simultaneously. Cash flow model, reporting, process documentation, team structure, accountability systems. The actual work, not a plan.

Step 04

Ongoing Operating Leadership

Stay in the Broken Arrow business as both functions evolve — monthly financial review, operational monitoring, decision support, and the ongoing leadership that keeps both sides of the business moving in the same direction.

What We Do

Two roles.
One partner.

Most Broken Arrow businesses don't need two executive hires. They need one person who operates across the financial and operational sides and moves between them as the situation requires.
