My name is Zach Rubenbauer. I'm the founder of Dillon Park Partners and a fractional CFO working exclusively with fence and specialty contractors in the U.S. that are family-owned or privately-held.
Before starting DPP, I spent six years in investment banking and private equity where I completed 16 transactions totaling over $1B in deal value.
One of those deals was the acquisition of a commercial fence contractor doing tens of millions in revenue. That transaction changed the direction of my career.
What I saw during that deal (and in the dozens of conversations with owners that followed) was the same pattern repeating itself. Strong operators. Real revenue. But almost zero financial infrastructure beneath it. No job-level margin tracking. No cash flow visibility. No budget to benchmark against. Just a P&L at the end of the month that told them what happened but not why, and not what to do about it.
Most of these owners weren't failing. But they were flying blind. And in an industry being actively consolidated by private equity, flying blind is a liability.
I built Dillon Park Partners to fix that.
Most fractional CFOs are generalists. They bring a standard playbook and apply it to whatever client is in front of them.
And that works fine for a lot of businesses.
But contracting has its own financial dynamics. Weather-driven seasonality, estimate vs. actual job costing, materials volatility, crew-level labor tracking, backlog as a leading indicator to name a few.
All things that a generalist simply would not think about on day one.
We do. Because it's all we do.
DPP works with fence and specialty contractors in the $2M–$25M revenue who want:
