LEXINGTON RISK MANAGEMENT
 Capital Project Manager Services

Introduction:

Implementing large-scale manufacturing and e-waste systems requires more than just technical oversight; it requires rigorous financial discipline. Drawing on my background as a former CPA, I bridge the gap between engineering needs and financial reality. I ensure that your major capital expenditures are not only technically sound but also financially optimized from the initial Request for Information (RFI) through to final cost negotiations.

Core Services:


With a unique combination of financial management experience and capital project oversight, I provide the following services to ensure your project stays on budget and delivers maximum ROI:

RFI & RFP Preparation:
• 
  Drafting comprehensive Requests for Information (RFI) and Requests for Proposals (RFP) that clearly define scope, technical                                 requirements, and financial constraints.
•    Establishing strict vendor evaluation criteria to ensure apples-to-apples comparisons of complex manufacturing and e-waste                                   system bids.
•    Identifying potential hidden costs and long-term operational expenses early in the solicitation process.
•    Cost Negotiation & Vendor Management:
•    Leading high-stakes negotiations for large manufacturing and electronic waste (e-waste) processing systems.
•    Applying the financial rigor of my accounting background to challenge vendor pricing models, ensuring you pay fair market value.
•    Structuring contracts with favorable payment terms, performance guarantees, and clawback provisions to protect your capital.

Financial Control & Budgeting:
•   
Developing detailed project budgets that align with your company’s broader financial strategy and cash flow requirements.
•    Monitoring actuals vs. budget in real-time to identify variances and implement corrective actions immediately.
•    Conducting "Total Cost of Ownership" (TCO) analysis to evaluate the long-term financial impact of equipment choices, including                              maintenance, energy, and depreciation.

Strategic Planning & Risk Management:
• 
  Assessing the financial viability of proposed capital projects using ROI, NPV, and IRR analysis.
•    Managing financial risks associated with complex system integrations and multi-vendor dependencies.
•    Serving as the financial liaison between your engineering team, executive management, and external vendors.


The Financial Advantage in Project Management

Most project managers focus solely on the timeline. Utilizing the mindset and training of a former CPA, I focus on the bottom line. I bring an auditor's eye to vendor quotes and a CFO’s strategy to capital deployment, ensuring that your investment in manufacturing infrastructure translates directly into operational efficiency and profitability.
