Heavy Civil Construction & Materials
Industry Focus
One Industry Ecosystem
One financial systems challenge. Two operating models.
Heavy civil contractors and construction materials companies often work in the same markets, share customers, and operate under the same ownership. But the information that reaches finance originates in very different workflows.
HBS connects each operating model to a reliable financial environment without pretending a materials operation runs like a construction project.
Construction Materials
Financial systems for aggregates, ready-mix concrete, and asphalt.
Connect pricing, orders, dispatch, scale and ticketing, loads, production data, inventory, billing, ERP, accounting, and reporting.
Explore Construction Materials Heavy Civil ConstructionFinancial systems for paving, site development, utilities, and infrastructure.
Connect estimating, budgets, projects, field data, labor, equipment, commitments, job cost, forecasting, WIP, ERP, accounting, and reporting.
Explore Heavy Civil ConstructionFor vertically integrated companies, HBS helps both sides of the business work within one dependable financial environment while preserving the systems and processes each operation needs.
Core Capabilities
Improve the financial systems layer behind the business.
The capability model is shared across both industries.
The technology follows the business requirement. Work can begin with a defined problem, a larger initiative, or a broader systems assessment.
Systems Integration
Connect specialized operational systems with ERP, accounting, payroll, banking, and reporting through dependable data flows.
Automation & Workflow
Reduce duplicate entry, manual reconciliations, missed steps, and spreadsheet-dependent processes across operations and finance.
Management Reporting
Give leadership trusted visibility into performance, cash flow, profitability, and the financial health of the business.
Why Holden Business Solutions
Industry context without software tunnel vision.
HBS combines finance and accounting leadership, ERP and business systems experience, firsthand experience with construction materials operating systems, heavy civil finance and project controls, and technology leadership.
That combination matters because the hardest systems problems rarely belong to one department or one application. A reporting problem may start with source data. An ERP problem may begin in an operational workflow. An integration may be technically successful while still failing the accounting or management requirement.
HBS understands both sides of the handoff: where operational data originates and what finance needs that information to become.
HBS is also a Microsoft partner with Dynamics 365 Business Central and Power Platform capabilities. Microsoft is an important delivery platform, but recommendations begin with the business requirement and the systems already in place.
The goal is not more software. It is a financial systems environment that reflects how the business actually operates.
Joe Carnes, MBA, PMP, founded Holden Business Solutions after nearly a decade inside a multi-location construction materials company, progressing through finance leadership and later leading IT and digital transformation.
His experience also includes construction finance and project controls, ERP implementations, Command Alkon Apex and related plant systems, integration, automation, reporting, and multi-company finance.

How We Work
Start with the problem your business needs solved.
HBS can enter through a defined project, a broader systems assessment, an implementation, or an ongoing support relationship. The right starting point depends on what the business already knows and what it needs next.
Defined Projects
Start with a specific ERP, integration, automation, reporting, control, or process problem that needs to be solved.
Systems Assessments & Roadmaps
Evaluate the broader environment, define the future-state architecture, and prioritize what to improve, integrate, automate, replace, or support.
Implementation & Integration
Translate business requirements into working systems, coordinate the right specialists, and validate that the result solves the original problem.
Ongoing Support & Optimization
Support applications, monitor integrations, manage improvements, and keep the financial systems environment aligned as the business changes.
