The work taught me what it needed.

10+ years across property loss, construction defect, and litigation support consulting

AC Stampley spent over a decade inside construction consulting and forensic litigation support — not as a technical expert, but as the person who made sure everything around the technical work actually ran.

At MKA International, that meant managing the operational infrastructure of a high-volume office carrying over 100 active projects at any given time. Property loss assessments, multi-discipline site visits, billing, client communications, report packaging — every part of the project lifecycle except the work that required a license. At PFCS, it meant coordinating active litigation matters, managing case files through depositions, mediations, and trial, and keeping attorneys and consultants moving toward the same deadline.

What the independent work made clear was a different problem entirely. Solo and small construction consulting practices — expert witnesses, forensic consultants, small claims shops — operate without the operational infrastructure that larger firms build over time. The data exists but lives in email and shared drives with no framework around it. Support staff get hired before there's anything for them to plug into. The practitioner ends up directing the work instead of doing it, because there's no system that doesn't require them in the middle.

HoneyBee Consulting was built to change that. AC designs and builds project management frameworks for solo and small construction consulting practices — systems that reflect how the work actually moves, built in ClickUp, documented for handoff, and staffed for independence. The engagement ends. The system stays.
