How Engagements Are Structured

Most relationships begin with recurring bookkeeping and close support, then add tax preparation, reconciliation, or advisory work as the operation grows. Scope and pricing are agreed in writing before work begins.

  • Recurring monthly accounting with a defined close date
  • Annual tax preparation built on reconciled records
  • Project work for cleanup, systems, or controls
  • Advisory engagements on a set cadence

Working With Existing Teams

Where an in-house bookkeeper or controller is already in place, we commonly handle review, reconciliation, inventory costing, and reporting while the internal team manages daily entry.
