IN ACTIVE CLIENT REVENUES

Apparatus Contractor Services is a U.S. outsourced finance firm founded over a decade ago by Steve Kreitzberg, serving residential and commercial construction companies between $2M and $50M+ in annual revenue. We operate as the outsourced finance function — bookkeepers, controllers, CMS integration specialists, and CFO advisors — for 300+ construction clients with $500M+ in active client revenues. We build and operate QuickBooks® Online and Intuit Enterprise Suite financial systems, integrate with Buildertrend®, JobTread®, and Procore®, and apply GAAP-compliant revenue recognition (Completed Contract, Percentage of Completion, or APB/WIPRA). Every team member is QuickBooks® ProAdvisor certified.

At Apparatus Contractor Services, we don’t just keep the books — we build and operate the financial infrastructure that helps U.S.-based construction entrepreneurs grow high-performing companies.

From emerging custom homebuilders and design-build remodelers to multi-entity developers, spec and production builders, commercial general contractors, and specialty trades, our clients have one thing in common: they’re serious about growth and ready to lead with data.

We bring the systems, structure, and strategic financial insight they need to do it.

Our Purpose

Apparatus.11

We exist to help construction entrepreneurs build highly profitable businesses—and lead lives of freedom, purpose, and impact.

That starts with giving them clarity, confidence, and control over their financials.

Our strategy is simple: operate their QuickBooks® Online and Intuit Enterprise Suite ecosystems with precision, automation, and CFO-level guidance — so they can make better decisions, take on bigger jobs, and scale with confidence.

What We Believe

At Apparatus, our values are more than internal slogans—they show up in every client experience:

  • Icon Aboutus Search
    Clarity is Power: Our mission is to bring financial clarity where there’s been confusion—so owners can finally lead with confidence.
  • Icon Aboutus Calc
    Accuracy is Non-Negotiable: In construction accounting, there’s only one right answer. We get it right—and keep it right.
  • Icon Aboutus Shake
    We Lead, Coach, and Solve: Our clients aren’t looking for data entry. They want insight, leadership, and a real partner.
  • Icon Aboutus Command
    Tech is Our Job: We embrace the tech stack — QuickBooks® Online and Intuit Enterprise Suite, Buildertrend®, JobTread®, and Procore® — so our clients don’t have to.
  • Icon Aboutus Star
    Simplicity is the Goal: We cut through complexity and deliver systems that are reliable, streamlined, and built for builders.
WHO WE ARE

Meet the Team Behind the System

We’re not generalist bookkeepers. We’re a team of QuickBooks® ProAdvisor certified Controllers, CFOs, construction accounting experts, CMS integration specialists, and system integrators with deep real-world experience in the industry.

Led by Founder & President Steve Kreitzberg, our team combines decades of financial, operational, and construction-specific expertise—all focused on one thing: helping our clients grow with clarity.

From GAAP compliance (Completed Contract, Percentage of Completion, APB/WIPRA) to CMS integration (Buildertrend®, JobTread®, Procore®), from AP automation and AIA G702/G703 progress invoicing to multi-entity consolidation and joint venture accounting, our team is your team.

About Steve Kreitzberg,
Founder & President

Steve Kreitzberg founded Apparatus Contractor Services with the conviction that construction entrepreneurs deserve a finance partner who genuinely understands their industry. Steve began his career as an engineering manager at Hewlett-Packard, where he worked until 1991 before leaving the technology industry to build what became a group of interconnected real estate investment companies that he continues to lead today. He holds a Bachelor of Science in Mechanical Engineering from the University of Washington (1983) and an MBA in Finance from Santa Clara University (1988). At Apparatus, Steve leads strategic direction, methodology development, and the proprietary frameworks — the Precision Bookkeeping Formula™, the Construction Advantage Program™, and the Strategic Growth System™ — that define every Apparatus engagement.

How Our Engagement Teams Are Structured

Every Apparatus client is staffed with a dedicated multi-role team — not a single account manager passing work along, and not an offshored production pool. The team composition depends on the engagement tier:

  • Gold tier (The Emerging Company™ — $2M–$8M revenue): Senior Associate + one or more Associates + one or more Analysts
  • Platinum tier (The Scaling Business™ — $6M–$25M revenue): CFO Advisor + Senior Associate + one or more Associates + one or more Analysts
  • Platinum X tier (The Expanding Enterprise™ — $20M–$50M+ revenue): CFO Advisor + Senior Associate + one or more Associates + one or more Analysts
  • All engagements: weekly Zoom meetings, monthly financial reviews, and — on Scale-phase Platinum X engagements — quarterly financial analysis sessions

Built for Builders

We don’t serve tech startups,  agencies, retail businesses, professional service firms, or general businesses of any kind. We serve construction entrepreneurs — and only construction entrepreneurs — because we believe they deserve a financial partner who speaks their language.

With over a decade of experience, 300+ construction clients served, and more than $500M+ in active client revenues, Apparatus is the financial architecture behind the construction industry’s next generation of market leaders.

Let’s Build the Financial Operating System Your Construction Business Deserves.
