Meet De Ann Alacris

Growth Architect

Controller | Construction Financial Strategist | System Implementation Leader

With over a decade of hands-on experience leading financial operations in construction, roofing, and business consulting, I don’t just manage numbers—I design financial ecosystems that fuel scalability, stability, and strategic growth.

As a trusted advisor to business owners, I specialize in translating complex financial data into actionable insights. My expertise spans full-cycle accounting, construction-specific job costing, forecasting, budget strategy, cash flow mastery, and audit preparedness. But where I truly stand apart is in integrating these core financial disciplines with the various Operating Systems that help their teams gain clarity, traction, and measurable results.

I’ve worked with contractors, subcontractors, developers, and executive leadership teams across multi-state operations—streamlining back-end operations, reducing overhead, and increasing profitability through sound financial infrastructure and cultural alignment. From revamping outdated systems to implementing custom scorecards and dashboards, I’ve helped companies build the internal clarity they need to scale with confidence.

Before consulting, I served in government safety and leadership roles, and owned a general contracting company, which gives me a unique 360-degree lens: I understand compliance, I understand construction from the ground up, and I understand what it takes to lead people through change.

I’m not just an advisor. I’m a collaborator, a change agent, and a builder of financial structures that actually work in the real world.

If you're looking for someone who sees both the forest and the trees, who brings sharp strategic insight with grounded execution, and who can help align your team’s vision with your financial future—well, you’ve found me.
