Month-end close

Month-end close

Deferred revenue reconciled

Deferred revenue reconciled

Audit adjustments at year end
$0

Audit adjustments at year end

Challenge. Deferred revenue was tracked in spreadsheets, and monthly statements landed three weeks late — too slow for board and investor reporting.

What we did. We rebuilt the revenue recognition schedule in the ledger, standardized the close checklist, and moved reconciliations to a weekly cadence.

eCommerce

Six sales channels reconciled to the penny every week

Multi-channel DTC brand, $14M revenue

Channels reconciled weekly

Match rate on payouts
99.8%

Match rate on payouts

Margin variance eliminated
4.2 pts

Margin variance eliminated

Challenge. Shopify, Amazon, and wholesale payouts never tied to the bank, leaving COGS and margin unreliable for buying decisions.

What we did. Channel-level clearing accounts, automated payout matching, and an inventory-to-COGS routine reviewed weekly.

Construction

WIP schedules that finally matched the field

Commercial contractor, 40 concurrent jobs

Jobs tracked to cost code

WIP accuracy vs. field estimate

WIP accuracy vs. field estimate

Unbilled retainage recovered
$280K

Unbilled retainage recovered

Challenge. Job costing lived in the PM tool and never reconciled to the ledger, so WIP and retainage were guesses at close.

What we did. Mapped cost codes to the chart of accounts, rebuilt the WIP schedule, and added a monthly percent-complete review.

Professional Services

Utilization and project margin visible before month-end

Consulting firm, 65 consultants

Rolling cash visibility
13 weeks

Rolling cash visibility

Blended project margin
+6.8 pts

Blended project margin

Utilization reporting cadence
Weekly

Utilization reporting cadence

Challenge. Leadership only learned a project was underwater after it closed, and there was no rolling cash forecast.

What we did. Fractional controller support, a 13-week cash model, and project-level margin reporting refreshed every Monday.

Real Estate

Property-level P&Ls and investor packs on a fixed date

Owner-operator, 22 properties

Property-level P&Ls monthly

Investor pack delivered, every month

Manual reporting hours removed
11 hrs

Manual reporting hours removed

Challenge. Investor reporting was assembled by hand each quarter and never arrived on the same schedule twice.

What we did. Class-based property tracking, a standard reporting template, and a published close calendar for the whole portfolio.

Retail

QuickBooks rebuilt for multi-location reporting

Nine-location specialty retailer

Locations reported separately

Locations reported separately

POS reconciliation lag, from 3 weeks
2 days

POS reconciliation lag, from 3 weeks

Deposits matched to sales
100%

Deposits matched to sales

Challenge. A single flat company file made it impossible to see which locations were profitable, and POS never tied to deposits.

What we did. Restructured classes and locations, automated POS-to-deposit matching, and trained the in-house team on the new file.

Nonprofits

Full back office outsourced, restricted funds tracked cleanly

Grant-funded nonprofit, $9M budget

Two consecutive audit opinions
Clean

Two consecutive audit opinions

Challenge. One overloaded staff accountant handled AP, payroll, and grant reporting — restricted balances were frequently misstated.

What we did. Took over the transactional finance function end to end, with fund-level tracking and a monthly grant compliance pack.

“We went from chasing our own numbers to reviewing them. The close lands on the same day every month, and our board deck writes itself now.”

Priya N.

VP Finance, B2B SaaS platform

Technology & SaaS

“Every channel ties out weekly. For the first time I trust our margin by SKU enough to make buying decisions off it.”

Marcus D.

Founder, DTC apparel brand

eCommerce

“Having a controller in the room one day a week changed how we price work. We see margin problems while we can still fix them.”

James O.

CEO, consulting firm

Professional Services

“Our WIP schedule finally reflects what's happening on site. Our surety and our bank both noticed the difference.”

Ray B.

Owner, commercial contractor

Construction

“Twenty-two property P&Ls, delivered on the sixth of every month. My investors stopped asking where the reports were.”

Dana W.

Principal, real estate owner-operator

Real Estate

Director of Finance, specialty retail
