Blog, Service Industry

The Situation:

A Gulf Coast industrial services company provides specialized surface preparation, coating, and maintenance work for commercial and industrial clients. Projects are billed at completion, and customers pay on extended terms, creating a cash-flow gap between payroll, labor costs, and incoming payments.

With multiple projects active at once, the company needed reliable working capital to support operations and avoid slowdowns.

The Solution:

Southstar Capital provided a $1.5 million Accounts Receivable financing facility to accelerate cash tied to outstanding invoices.

The facility:

  • Converted receivables into immediate liquidity

  • Supported payroll and labor costs

  • Stabilized cash flow across active projects

The Result:

With dependable working capital, the company:

  • Continued executing projects without interruption

  • Maintained staffing and field operations

  • Strengthened financial stability during growth

The business is now better positioned to take on additional project opportunities with confidence.
