A live, public teardown of a real business — on stage. We find the walls holding the whole thing up, and the one that's actually the owner. You watch the diagnostic run on someone else's company, for free, before you ever put yours on the table.
The Excavation is what we do behind closed doors, on your business, for a fee. Labs is that same structural inspection — run live, on a volunteer's business, in front of a room, for nothing.
Every week a real builder puts their company on the bench. We walk the same five pillars we score everyone on — positioning, pricing power, lead system, owner-dependence, transferability — out loud, in real time. You see exactly how the assessment thinks before you decide whether you want it pointed at your own shop.
One operator brings their actual numbers and story. No hypotheticals, no sanitized case study.
The same scored diagnostic, out loud — where the enterprise value is leaking, and why.
Usually it's the owner. We name the one dependency that would scare a buyer most — and what to do about it.
Watch someone else's teardown and you'll spot your own gaps before we ever meet.
No selling from the stage. Labs isn't a pitch with a diagnostic taped on. If you want to work together after, you'll have to ask.
What's said in the room stays in the room. The volunteer's numbers aren't published. Peers speak candidly because it's off the record.
Builders only. Construction, trades, and field-service operators. The room is your peers, not a general-business audience.
