HOW OUR IT CONSULTING SERVICES HELP CLIENTS

Accounting System Services:

Accounting System Implementation and Design Bonus Calculation

We successfully migrated a client from a manual accounting system with complex bonus calculations to a computerized accounting system with automated calculations, while training the client to maintain their own system, resulting in significant monthly expense reductions.

Accounting System Conversion

We smoothly converted a client from one accounting system to another,  placing the client in a more flexible system with improved reporting capabilities, and efficiently imported over 40,000 historical transactions.

Accounting System Integration

We collaborated with a client’s new manufacturing software provider to implement a new accounting system that seamlessly integrated with the client’s existing payroll system and new manufacturing software.

Accounting System Emergency Management

We minimized a client’s accounting system downtime during an outage by putting a manual system in place while we set up and installed a new system. We were able to export data from the corrupt system to a new platform while concurrently training their staff.

Client Training

We helped a new client save thousands of dollars by taking over monthly accounting duties from their former CPA firm, and put a system in place that allowed the owner to easily complete financial tasks in-house, with our ongoing remote support.

Data Integration and Analysis Services:

Data Analysis for Business Acquisition

We developed an intuitive forecasting spreadsheet that allowed a client to analyze operational variables and generate projected financial statements that provided key insights into a proposed business acquisition.

Data Integration During Company Sale

We helped a client efficiently move all pertinent data to the buyer’s system while maintaining the integrity of the data when the company was purchased.
