accounts-receivable financing for heavy construction

Invoice factoring for heavy construction with Scale Funding gives companies the cash they need to keep the business operating. Cash flow from factoring is used to meet payroll, maintain equipment, buy supplies or whatever is needed by the company. The steady cash flow from factoring lets business operators focus on what they do best – getting the job done.

Heavy construction companies are among the businesses who can benefit the most from accounts receivable financing. Heavy construction companies go from one project to the next. Waiting 30, 60, or 90 days to be paid on a completed project can have a major impact on a company’s ability to do the next job.

Bank loans and bank lines of credit are often used by heavy construction companies for cash flow. The reality of the current banking climate is many companies will not qualify for a line of credit and are turned down by the bank. Even those companies with existing bank lines can suddenly find themselves maxed-out or the line being closed.

Factoring is an excellent alternative for companies that cannot use a bank loan or bank line of credit. With factoring, you’ll have the cash you need when you need it. Factoring with Scale Funding also comes with the benefits of being able to check the credit and payment history of potential customers, and with support from account representatives who have extensive experience working with heavy construction companies.

Heavy Construction for Telecom

Scale Funding works with companies to ensure a steady cash flow through and beyond project completion.
