Coltivar Builds a System for Profitable Growth.
You don’t need another spreadsheet or pep talk, you need a system that turns chaos into control and growth into a clear path. We help you build margin, grow cash flow, and scale your business with confidence
CLARITY
See your numbers, priorities, and future clearly
ACCOUNTABILITY
Know who’s responsible — and what’s getting done
PROFITABILITY
Grow cash flow, margin, and enterprise value
In addition to providing operational and financial clarity, we also acquire and invest in businesses that meet our model.
Our acquisition criteria:
- U.S.-based, privately held
- $5M–$75M in revenue
- $1M–$10M in EBITDA
- 10%+ EBITDA margins
- 3+ years of profitability
- Owner is seeking a transition or growth partner, not just a financial buyer
We are operators — not brokers. We acquire businesses where we can embed the Coltivar OS, improve execution, grow financial performance, and protect the owner’s legacy.
So many construction and service business owners are quietly bleeding time, cash, and energy. They’re stuck solving problems all day, overwhelmed by the grind, and wondering why all their hard work isn’t paying off. It’s frustrating — and lonely.
We help them step back, find the leaks, and finally build a business that gives more than it takes. More profit. More freedom. And a clear path forward.

What Our Clients Are Saying
My business was making money but it always felt harder than it should. Coltivar showed us how to tighten things up and actually enjoy running the business again. I feel like I finally have freedom and we have more cash flow than ever!
I used to feel like we were running hard but not getting ahead at all. Jobs kept coming in, but the numbers never added up. Coltivar helped us make sense of it all, and now our margins are solid, cash flow’s steady, and I finally know exactly where we stand.
