Outsourced Accounting planning and financial review

What this service is

Outsourced accounting gives you a complete accounting department, bookkeeper, staff accountant, and controller-level review, without hiring one. We take ownership of the month-end close, reconciliations, payables and receivables oversight, reporting, and accounting policies, working inside your systems and alongside any internal staff. It fits companies that have outgrown a part-time bookkeeper, and businesses covering a gap while they hire.

What You Get

Month-End Close Ownership

A full close cycle, reconciliations, adjusting entries, and accrual review, completed on a consistent monthly schedule you can plan around.

Management Reporting Package

A monthly balance sheet, income statement, and cash flow statement, with commentary on what changed and why, not just the raw numbers.

AP/AR Oversight

Bill approval workflow, payment timing, and receivables follow-up managed as part of the close, not left as a separate loose process.

Systems & Integration Management

Keeping your accounting platform connected cleanly to payroll, payment processors, and any other system that feeds the books.

Internal Controls & Policy Design

Segregation of duties, approval thresholds, and documented policies sized to your team, not a generic template built for a much larger company.

  • Monthly balance sheet, income statement, and cash flow statement
  • Close checklist with reconciliations and adjusting entries documented
  • Flux commentary and variance highlights against the prior period and budget
  • AP/AR aging summary each month
  • Control recommendations with implementation sequencing

When this service may fit

  • Monthly close ownership has become too important for basic bookkeeping alone
  • Leadership needs stronger reporting quality before financing, diligence, or scale-up decisions
  • The accounting workflow needs controller-level discipline without a full internal buildout
  • You want tax and advisory work resting on a cleaner monthly accounting foundation

How It Works

1

Onboarding: current-state assessment of books, systems, and existing close process

Map accounting tasks, systems, approval rights, and the handoffs between your staff and external providers.

2

Close process design: chart of accounts, reconciliation checklist, and reporting package structure

Set the recurring workflow for the agreed bookkeeping, reconciliations, payables, receivables, and close responsibilities.

3

Monthly execution: close, reconcile, report, and a review call to walk through the numbers

Run the cycle with documented review points, escalating missing records and exceptions before they delay reporting.

4

Quarterly improvement roadmap as the business and its reporting needs evolve

Review financial results and service performance, updating responsibilities as transaction volume or business complexity changes.

Your Role

Retain approval of payments and key accounting judgments, maintain authorized system access, and provide operational information on schedule.

Service Scope

Payment execution, payroll processing, software migrations, controller duties, and tax filings are included only if specifically assigned. Management retains oversight.
