CLARITY. CONTROL. CONFIDENCE.
Practical training and expert advisory support for construction and civil engineering businesses.
CHARTERED COMMERCIAL DISCIPLINE
CBA brings chartered commercial discipline to SME construction and civil engineering businesses, pricing, margin, cashflow, contract control, and the leadership routine that holds it all together.
Most construction businesses we meet are not short of work. They are short of structure. Quotes go out without first-principles estimates. Margins are eroded by variations that were never priced. Cashflow gets tight even when the order book is full. Decisions get made on instinct because the data isn't there to make them on anything else.
We fix that through four routes:
- Workshops and the week-intensive estimating course, practical, classroom-based, chartered-led.
- 1-to-1 advisory mentoring — monthly sessions with David personally, an active commercial director.
- The Business MOT, a structured 20-question diagnostic that produces a written report and prioritised roadmap.
- A library of professional tools and templates clients use directly in their businesses.
Every session and every piece of training is led by David Clark, FCInstCES and MCIOB, bringing chartered commercial experience directly to your business. No hype. No make-more-money promises. Real commercial discipline, applied to your business.

The mentoring David has given me over the years has been invaluable. He's taught me things I didn't even know I needed to know. Practical, grounded, no nonsense. The tools alone have helped me streamline how I price and run jobs.
