Local market focus Cortis Brothers has a long-standing presence in southeast Michigan since 1986, indicating deep regionalrelationships and a strong local network that can be leveraged for repeat excavation and utility projects in nearby municipalities and school districts.

Full-service capabilities As a full service excavating company covering underground utilities, educational and athletic field installations, and geothermal work, they can be pitched as a single-source contractor to clients seeking multi-disciplinary construction solutions, potentially increasing project size and scope.

Family-owned credibility Being a family-owned business for four decades can be positioned as a differentiator for clients prioritizing stable relationships, consistent service quality, and long-term partnerships, particularly in public bids or school district projects.

Tech stack readiness Utilize their cloud and web infrastructure familiarity (Cloudflare, WordPress, Google Workspace) to propose digital collaboration improvements, project portals, and streamlined documentation workflows that could reduce cycle times on bids and field coordination.

Growth opportunity With revenue in the 1M-10M range and a relatively small employee base, there is potential to upsell larger equipment, fleet services, or geotechnical/utility contracting to expand project size and increase margins in upcoming regional infrastructure or school campus projects.
