A new & unique system, built 'The Ryan Way'
The Ryan Construction team recognized a plateau—they could not scale the business using the current systems they had in place. They knew they needed a new system to equip their team to do things ‘The Ryan Way’ and that this system needed to be uniquely designed for them.

Accountability and sustained scalability
As Ascent had performed a complete Operational Assessment on the business prior to this engagement, the Ryan and Ascent team were able to jump right in and tackle the company’s most immediate challenges; developing a strategic growth model, as well as designing and adapting processes, procedures and protocols.
While the strategic plan and newly designed processes were adopted and implemented, workshops to develop an organizational structure and detailed roles and responsibilities were held. Ascent coached Ryan through the change management process, the team fully adopted and implemented the newly created plan for strategic growth and processes, procedures, and protocols.
The fruit of Ryan’s perseverance throughout their engagement with Ascent has been demonstrated by the significant return on investment they have experienced in the following areas:
- The new model and structure for strategic growth allows Ryan to objectively assess opportunities for job and company profitability
- Documented processes, procedures, and protocols that were collaboratively developed by Ascent and the Ryan team provide a structure for company scalability and accountability
- Comprehensive roles and responsibilities were clarified for all positions
- The new recruiting and onboarding frameworks invite and ensure employee retention
- The career pathway provides motivation and goals for employee growth and development
- An Operations and Training Manual ensures each Ryan employee is onboarded properly and knows how to do their job ‘The Ryan Way’
- As each Ryan team member was trained on how to best utilize Procore for their position, they are now more efficient and effective in their assigned roles

Ascent's Operational Design
Profitability is directly related to repeatability: getting everyone in the organization to operate the same way.
When everyone is aligned and operating in unison, then it becomes easier to add people (superintendents, project managers, estimators, accountants, administrators) and achieve consistent and repeatable results.
By getting everyone aligned and operating from the same model of processes and systems, the business becomes more efficient and easier for owners to manage.
