Septic Tank Contractor Business Plan


William’8217;s Environmental offers underground tank removal and installation services that provide a complete waste management system to its customers. Jean William has started William&#8217s Environmental due to the incredible growth of Webster County housing over the last three years. Webster County also approved a rebate program to replace older septic tanks.

William&#8217’s Environmental has more than 25 years of waste management experience. Jean worked ten year as general contractor for Hayes Honeybucket Services before she started William&#8217’s Environmental. Her staff also have more than fifteen years of experience serving Webster County customers. Jean has a lot of contacts with home builders and property managers.

The county projects 2,000 more housing starts for this year. The county is home to 80,000 people, with the exception of Monroe. Of these homes 50% have underground tanks to manage waste.

Webster County recently approved a program for underground septic tank owners who are 15 years or older. This will enable them to replace their tanks. New program will pay as much as 40% of the replacement costs. The program starts in May. The county estimates 40% of these older homes have underground tank that needs to be replaced to avoid ground water contamination. These are over 20,000 homes in need of new underground tanks.

William&#8217’s Environmental plans will make this a major assault on the homes it is targeting. The company has hired a full-time salesperson to pursue this opportunity. William’s Environmental is offering to handle all the paper work to get the home approved for assistance. This is extremely important because a large number of these home have elderly owners.

Jean will make personal savings to William&#8217, Environmental. Jean’8217’s investment will be matched by a silent partner. In addition, she will obtain a long-term loan.

Commercial Contractor Business Plan


Commercial Contractor Business Plan


Twin Brothers Construction (TBC), plans to be a major provider of renovation and construction services in the area. The company’s strategy will continue to improve through the setting of objectives, measuring results and providing feedback that can be used to support growth and improvement.

TBC is a company that has its principal offices in the local region. Management at TBC is highly qualified and experienced. The brothers who will be leading the team are each more than twenty-five years old in the construction industry.

Products/Services

TBC&#8217’s owners have accumulated years of experience in developing sophisticated scheduling, bidding and materials solutions to some of today’s most challenging construction projects. The company will be able to adapt its methods to suit a wide variety of building configurations.

Utilizing the company’s construction methods, systems, and tools, developers, owners, builders, general contractors, sub-contractors, and construction managers can make substantial savings on labor and material. Applications include commercial and residential structures.

Market

Since several years, the industry of housing has experienced rapid growth. 1998 was a record year for the number of single-family homes sold on site. This represents a 10% rise from the solid total of 804,000 houses sold in 1997. Even though there was a slight decrease in sales from 2003, it is still a huge opportunity for the industry to grow.

Twin Brothers Construction plans to rapidly develop marketing alliances with industry leaders and pursue new sales of its services to residential and commercial builders. The marketing strategy will focus on securing city, county, and state and federal government contracts.

TBC plans to use a direct sales force, relationship selling, and sub-contractors to reach its target markets. These channels are best because they have a quicker time to market and lower capital requirements. They also provide access to established distribution channels quickly.

Financial Considerations

We anticipate that we will reach break-even within the second half of the year. Although the initial cash expenditures were significant to promote sales, the cash account of the company is expected to be healthy. The company is expecting to make approximately $772,000 in sales and moderate net profits by year 3.

1.1 Mission

Our mission is to be the best partner for our customers, suppliers and employees. To realize our vision, we will strive for profitable growth, operational excellence, customer satisfaction and strong brand positioning.

1.2 Objectives

  1. Up to three construction projects can be established in the first year.
  2. To have two building renovation projects in progress by the end of the first year.
  3. To find and purchase our first rental house by the end o the first year.
  4. To achieve a minimum of 7% profit within the second calendar year.

1.3 Keys for Success

Our keys to success are:

  • Using the most updated materials and equipment to assure quality construction projects for ourselves and our customers.
  • Educating the customers and providing valuable advice during the construction planning stages.
  • Helping to confirm customer’s research about targeting markets and specific sectors.
  • Supervise the logistics of a project. This can include booking local transportation, scheduling meetings, and so on.
  • Delegating the actual work to qualified, experienced sub-contractors and third-party contractors.

Electrical Contractor Business Plan


Electrical Contractor Business Plan


Opportunity

Problem

Richmond is experiencing an increasing population. The population is growing, and so does the demand for new apartments and stores. New construction needs skilled electricians that can wire everything.

Solution

Premiere Electric is Robin’s new electrical contracting agency. It was started by Miller and Gardner.

Market

The market for commercial electrician services is fragmented and competitive. Only a few firms employing 20 or more electrical workers are represented. Rest are smaller firms employing fewer than three electricians. Premiere Electric&#8217’s current niche lies in its strong relationship with Gardner and Miller’s customers. But, this is not enough for growth within a competitive market.

Robin is now able to focus on data, communication, electrical installation, and maintenance. This allows her to reduce her direct competitors, which are two large electrical contractors that have bid on the most important projects in the region. Premiere Electric has plans to become a force on the largest projects in the area, but there are still opportunities for customers with smaller projects that are not being pursued by Robin’s competitors.

Competition

There are many Richmond electric contractors: Frazier Electrical and Above Code Electric. Prism Industries, Langhorne Electric and Feild Electric are just a few of the many electric contractors in Richmond.

All of them have years of experience and training. They also boast customers who trust their work. Electrical contractors enter their customer’s home. They must be capable of doing excellent work and not invading the privacy of their customers.

Why Us?

Premiere Electric is committed to providing the best electrical services possible for its customers. Robin focuses on personalized service by offering convenience and rapid service. Premiere Electric is able to install any size wireless voice and data system, as well intelligence systems, in any facility. Robin has excellent vendor relationships with the most reliable vendors that can ship large parts quickly (most often within 24 hours), minimizing downtime for Premiere Electric clients.

Expectations

Forecast

Currently, there is $100,000 worth of business with former Gardner and Miller customers. Robin believes that she can grab the lion’s share and grow from this base. She will be the firm’s sole employee at first, but will soon hire additional electricians to grow her sales.

Financial Highlights Year-by-Year

Finance is required

We will be getting $62,000. Robin will make a $40,000 investment and we’ll get a $22,000 short term loan.
