What you told me

I need to figure out my systems, my process and procedures. I need someone to automate it.

More implementation is part of the problem. I need to push Monday harder.

I need to find something that just keeps us organized and on track.

I need someone who can show me the way to make this where I just have a system that has some flexibility and is going to work and expand as we grow.

This isn't a tech stack problem.

It's an implementation and bandwidth problem.

BuildOps, Monday, OneDrive, and Microsoft 365 are not the issue. Your tools work. What's missing is the connective tissue between them, the team buy-in to use them consistently, and an owner who isn't the single point of execution for every process change. Until that's fixed, no new tool will land.

WHAT IT LOOKS LIKE
Tech stack frustration.
WHAT IT ACTUALLY IS
Implementation gaps. Team adoption. Owner bandwidth. No single source of truth.

The pattern shows up outside your operations too.

Before we ever started, here's what we already noticed about how Revolt presents to the world.

Brand inconsistency

Your website lists Procore on the certifications page, but you've moved to BuildOps. The site's contact email is a legacy address that doesn't match the Revolt brand. Small but visible.

SEO gaps

Your homepage scores 67% on standard SEO checks. Missing meta description. 18 images without alt text. Title tag too long. Page response is 0.99 seconds (recommended: under 0.4). Only 311 words of content on the page. All quick wins sitting unfinished.

Authority signal is thin

Only 22 referring domains and 24 backlinks across the web. For a contractor that's worked with Omron, Emerald Cloud Lab, and Tri-City Health, the public presence should match the project portfolio.

These are symptoms of the same thing we're going to fix internally.

R. Construction Solutions

Our approach: four phases, one continuous build.

Each phase delivers something usable before the next begins.

1

Discovery

On-site deep dive into current processes, tech stack, team, bottlenecks.

2

Process

Design the workflows that make BuildOps, Monday, and OneDrive talk to each other.

3

Implementation

Build it. Templates, automations, naming conventions, dashboards.

4

Training

Operations manuals and role-based playbooks so the next hire ramps without you.

We don't hand you a recommendation deck. We build the system.

JAY'S SUPERPOWERS — THE PLAN OF ATTACK

AI integration that gives Jay leverage now — and a system future hires step into, not rebuild.

Human in control, machine doing the heavy lifting. We build the automations, prompts, and guardrails so Revolt runs leaner now and scales without chaos as you hire.

AI-drafted change orders & RFP responses
Claude reads the email thread, drawings, and prior COs — then drafts the language for Jay to review and send. Cuts hours per week.
Inbox & follow-up automation
Customer emails, vendor pings, and field requests are triaged, summarized, and routed into BuildOps and Monday — nothing falls through.
Smart file organization
AI-assisted naming conventions and auto-filing in OneDrive so any job, drawing, or photo is one search away — for Jay or a brand-new admin.
Templated job setup
New jobs spin up from BuildOps + Monday templates pre-populated by AI from the bid docs — repeatable, fast, consistent every time.
Sunday-night executive briefing
BuildOps + Monday data flows into a 1-page briefing Jay reads with coffee — pipeline, jobs at risk, who needs a nudge.
Hiring-ready playbooks
Every workflow is documented as a role-based playbook. New admin, ops, or PM hires step into a running system — they don't have to invent it.

You've already invested in good tools. We keep them.

The lift is in how they connect — not in replacing what works.

What stays

  • BuildOps — project management, dispatching, CRM
  • Monday — task management, templates, accountability
  • OneDrive — file storage, document sync
  • Microsoft 365 — productivity, email, calendar

What changes

  • How these tools connect (automation between BuildOps, Monday, OneDrive)
  • Who is accountable for what (clear ownership per process, not Jay-by-default)
  • How files are organized (naming conventions so AI and humans can find anything fast)
  • How new jobs get set up (templated and automated, not manual)
  • How your team adopts the system (training and playbooks, not "figure it out")

WHERE WE FIT

Strategy and the build are two different jobs.

Most growing construction businesses need both.

Big-picture coaching

Strategy. Vision. Scale playbook.

Pulls a business owner out of the trenches to see the long arc. Sets goals, frames the operator math, sharpens the offer. Stays out of day-to-day systems.

R. Construction Solutions

The build. The systems. The implementation.

Works inside the trenches. Maps the processes, builds the connective tissue between the tools, writes the playbooks, trains the team. Construction businesses don't scale on advice alone — they scale on systems that hold.

Coaching points to the destination. R. Construction Solutions builds the truck that gets there.

What this looks like when it's done right.

A recent engagement, mapped on a timeline. Same playbook we'd run with Revolt.

1
Month 1
Discovery & current-state map
On-site deep dive. Mapped every active process, identified the three bottlenecks slowing job setup.
2
Month 2–3
Process design & first builds
Estimating workflow tightened. Project setup templates built. Owners stopped being the bottleneck for kickoffs.
3
Month 4–6
Implementation & adoption
Role-based playbooks rolled out. Team trained inside the actual workflow, not in a binder.
4
Month 7–8
Training & handoff
Three ops manuals delivered: sales, estimating, project management. Owners moved from execution to oversight.

Reference available on request.

Investment

One retainer for the foundation. Everything after, priced your way — by project or hourly.

$7,500 initial retainer
Billed against $155/hour
Approximately 48 hours — covers full Discovery and initial implementation work.
What the retainer includes
  • On-site discovery deep dive
  • Current-state process mapping
  • Tool integration audit (BuildOps × Monday × OneDrive × M365)
  • Initial implementation work begins inside the retainer hours.
  • Scoped recommendation report for what comes next
After the retainer — choose what fits
Project-based pricing
A fixed scope and fixed price for each defined build (CRM integration, automation rollout, manual). You see the full scope and price before any work starts.
Hourly at $155/hr
For ongoing support, smaller adjustments, or work that's better handled on a time-and-materials basis. Logged transparently, billed monthly.

No surprise invoices. Every scope item — project or hourly — is priced in writing before work begins.

YOUR ENGAGEMENT

What the first 90 days looks like.

From the moment you sign, here's the cadence — so you always know what's happening and what's next.

1
Week 1
Kickoff & on-site discovery
Engagement letter signed. Discovery day scheduled within the first week or two. Full walk-through of how Revolt actually runs today.
2
Weeks 2–3
Current-state map & first deliverable
Process map and prioritized action list delivered. We agree on the first build targets together.
3
Weeks 4–6
First builds in your tools
Templates, automations, naming conventions, and AI-supported workflows built inside BuildOps, Monday, and OneDrive — not in a slide deck.
4
Weeks 7–12
Adoption, training & playbooks
Team training inside the live workflow. Role-based playbooks documented. Scope of post-retainer work finalized in writing.

Steady cadence. Visible deliverables. No black-box months.

11 / 15
R. Construction Solutions
What comes after

Built once. Scaled forever.

After the retainer, we'll have a clear-eyed scope of what your business needs next. The next phase is scoped around the operation we uncover, and you'll see every line item before you commit.

Other typical post-retainer scopes

  • Field crew SMS-to-Monday capture (foreman texts a code + photo, it logs as a daily report)
  • AI-assisted change order drafting (Claude reads the thread + drawings, drafts CO language)
  • Weekly automated executive briefing (BuildOps + Monday data → 1-page Sunday-night briefing)
  • Custom dashboards by role (sales pipeline, field utilization, gross margin per job)

Recommended after the retainer is complete. Scoped to your actual operation, not someone else's playbook.

Why R. Construction Solutions

After 30 years working in the construction industry — from high-rise residential builds in Chicago to federal school rebuilds in New Orleans — Rowena Tulacz founded R. Construction Solutions to give contractors, subcontractors, and suppliers the same business systems large firms take for granted, without the corporate price tag.

  • 30 years in construction not consulting from the outside. Estimating, project management, federal procurement, all from the field.
  • Hands-on build we don't deliver a recommendation deck and walk away. We build the process, AI support, automations, and playbooks with you.
  • Industry-specific systems we know what a Davis-Bacon wage determination is, what BuildOps actually does, where a pour gets delayed when the wrong sub is sourced. That field experience is baked into every system we deliver.

COMMON QUESTIONS

What contractors usually ask before signing.

How disruptive is this to my current operation?
Minimal. We build inside the tools you already use and roll changes out gradually. Crews keep working. Jobs keep moving.
What if it doesn't work for my business?
The retainer is scoped so you have a usable current-state map and prioritized action list inside the first few weeks. You can stop after the retainer with no further commitment — and you keep everything we've built.
Who owns the systems, automations, and documentation?
You do. Every workflow, prompt, template, automation, and playbook lives in your accounts and is yours to keep, edit, and expand — with or without us.
Do I need to hire someone before we start?
No. The plan is built so you get leverage now, in your current headcount. When you're ready to hire, the new person steps into a running system instead of building one.
How involved do I need to be?
Heaviest in Discovery (one on-site day plus a few working sessions). After that, weekly check-ins and async review. We do the building.
What if the scope grows?
Anything beyond the retainer is quoted in writing — project-based or hourly — before work begins. No surprise invoices.
