About
Stoner Advisory Group is an owner’s representative for Michigan school bond programs. BondControls is the financial-controls machinery behind its engagements, and SAG is the only firm that operates it.
Only through Stoner Advisory Group
The value of BondControls is not the screens. It is that someone who works only for the district posts every check, ties it out, reads every exception, and stands behind the board report. Selling the technology without the people would sell the part that does not matter.
So it is not sold as software and no district is granted a license. A district engages SAG, and the technology comes with the principals who run it, invoiced by SAG as a professional fee.
SAG holds no stake in the architect’s drawings or the construction manager’s contracts and accepts nothing from vendors. That is the whole reason its reporting can be independent of the builder.
Principal · Owner’s Representative · Rochester Hills, Michigan
More than thirty years inside Michigan public school facilities: facility engineer on the $100 million bond that built Stoney Creek High School, then Director of Operations at Bloomfield Hills Schools and at Rochester Community Schools. He founded Stoner Advisory Group in 2015 and has since represented nine public clients across more than $750 million of capital programs.
Principal · Program Controls & Business Operations
Eric built BondControls: the cost tracking, tie-out, dashboards and board-ready reconciliation behind every SAG engagement. He brings that discipline from a career running partnerships and operations at national scale, most recently as Senior Director of Partnerships at Shipt/Target. A Michigan State University graduate, a Michigan native, and John’s son: succession is built into the firm.
