Financial control is the cornerstone of a well run business, and it starts with your accounting function.

This is our core service. We give you a full in-house accounting and bookkeeping function, set up to suit your business and your needs, and staffed by us for as much of the work as you need.

Many viable businesses get into difficulty not because the business is poor, but because nobody has a reliable picture of the money. Bookkeeping done only for the VAT return and year end is not financial control, and statutory accounts arrive far too late to be of use in running the business.

Systems: accounting software set up properly for your business, with the right structure for reporting and job costing.

Process: standard ways of collecting and processing your sales, purchase, bank, payroll and timesheet data, supported by Business Process, Policy and Procedure.

People: our staff carry out whatever your team does not have the time or skills to do, including data entry, reconciliations, sales and purchase ledgers, cash management, pay runs, timesheets and job costing. As your own team develops, they can take over as much as you choose, and we step back.

The function sits in your business and you own it: your systems, your data and your records. We run it for you, at a fraction of the cost of employing a finance team.

Everything else follows from it. Reliable Management Information is a by-product, which supports Business Decision Support and Business Viability Analysis, and in turn better Business Planning.

We provide the information. You make the decisions on banking, which suppliers to pay and when, funding and everything else.

Your accountant benefits too. They receive accurate records on time and can concentrate on the year end, tax and advice they are trained for.
