Specialist capability | Development Finance & Funding
Specialist support within a broader fractional CFO practice: project finance models, funding applications, lender draws, progress claims, cash-flow reporting, and financial coordination from feasibility through completion.
Development teams need more than a feasibility spreadsheet. They need accurate financial information carried through applications, funding conditions, draw cycles, project reporting, and stakeholder decisions.
The scope can be focused on a specific application or draw process, or integrated across the financial workstream of an active project.
A development pro forma consultant in Vancouver should test sources and uses, cost schedules, financing assumptions, cash-flow forecasts, and scenario sensitivities before the model supports a funding or investment decision.

Maintain draw schedules, organize costs and invoices, prepare financial components of draw packages and progress claims, and coordinate submission requirements.
For BC construction projects, a cash-flow forecast connects commitments, expenditures, funding sources, purchase orders, forecast-to-complete, upcoming cash requirements, and variances against the approved budget.
Prepare cash-flow summaries, project statements, performance reports, and decision-ready presentations for clients, investors, lenders, boards, and committees.
Connect financial requirements with information from owners, project managers, architects, engineers, quantity surveyors, contractors, lenders, and funding agencies.
The financing request, development pro forma, project budget, sources and uses, cash-flow forecast, equity contribution, and draw schedule should reconcile rather than force the lender to rebuild the story.
Review the financial schedules, supporting evidence, and questions that should be resolved before a lender begins underwriting.
Read the lender-ready package guideA successful workflow keeps assumptions, documents, deadlines, project costs, funding conditions, and reporting obligations aligned before and after an application is submitted.
We strengthen the financial case and manage the process. Funding and grant approvals remain decisions of the lender or funding organization, so the work is presented without promising an outcome no consultant can control.
Each claim cycle should reconcile approved budgets, committed costs, invoices, work completed, prior draws, holdbacks, funding sources, and the project’s forward cash requirement.
Confirm eligible costs, required evidence, approval status, budget availability, funding conditions, and the timing of upcoming project payments.
Organize the financial package, reconcile supporting records, track questions and approvals, and coordinate information across the project team.
Update project costs, cash forecasts, funding balances, variance explanations, and the schedule for the next claim and reporting cycle.
The project owner, lender, funder, board, and delivery team may need different views of the same financial position. The underlying numbers should still reconcile.
HS Strategic CFO Advisory can support a project owner, development manager, or project team as the financial liaison—working alongside accounting, legal, design, construction, and financing professionals rather than replacing them.
Whether the immediate need is a project model, funding application, lender draw, progress claim, or recurring project report, start with the decision, deadline, and information already available.
Share the project stage, funding source, next submission date, and current financial reporting challenge.
