Outsourced Accounting Services The primary service offering of Alliance Accounting is to become our clients accounting services provider. Do we replace your CPA? If you have a local CPA, we encourage you to continue using them. We want to be your back office partner. Nothing replaces the need to sit across the desk from a trusted professional when you need that level of advice. We look forward to working with your local CPA and provide them with accurate detailed records in order to prepare your tax returns and provide you with advice. If you don’t have a CPA, we are happy to assist with other matters as well. How it works 1. We start with an evaluation of your current accounting processes. We conduct a survey with you to better understand how are you processing information today, paying bills, invoicing customers etc. Understanding the processes and your company’s needs. We then map those requirements to our internal lean business practices and generate our partnership proposal. This outlines what documents are needed and when. Timing of when the work will be performed and if we will do so on our systems or yours. 2. Next comes setup and cleanup. We implement the required technology, scanners, secure data transfer etc. We then make any necessary changes and conduct any back work needed to get things up to date. 3. Then we move into the maintenance phase where clients submit information to us through an electronic fax or scanned documents. We generally setup both for a customer to make sure there is an easy method for providing information electronically. We provide each customer with a customized list and schedule of information 4. We then store that information on our servers in a paperless format 5. Work is conducting by our employees (All U.S. based employees working remotely at their homes) This keeps our costs to a minimum and allows us to hire from a wider spectrum of qualified employees. The work is performed in Quickbooks (which we are Pro Advisors) either on our servers or that of our clients. This decision is based on how information is needed by our customers. 6. Work is performed on a pre-arranged schedule. This allows the customer to understand when work will be completed and information made available. This step is customized to each client. 7. Financial reports are produced and compliance tax returns completed if necessary. We work with every customer to determine what reports are packaged based on individual needs. Some customers need budget comparisons and others need detailed invoice information. 8. Our employees work in a paperless environment by utilized duplicate monitors to view source documents on one screen and work with accounting tools on the other. 9. Ongoing support is maintained by constant contact with us through email, video, and phone. Your accounting professional is accessible to you via phone or Skype video chat so you can get to know them personally. They will be guided and supervised by our CPA’s so that they are performing the accounting for your business accurately and providing you with valuable business information. 10. Billing is handled electronically and we process our fee monthly. No hidden costs or extra billing so you can budget our services confidently. Outsourced CFOAs businesses grow, their financial needs mature over time and a different level of services are needed in order to run their businesses. Personal lines of credit transform to commercial lending requirements. Using Quickbooks transforms into enterprise systems that have advanced pricing or manufacturing and distribution applications. The addition of employees means tighter controls and procedures need to be developed and implemented. Hurdles need to be overcome to improve profitability by analyzing costs and implementing budgeting. The needs for small growing businesses are there, many times the need is not full time and the budget may not allow for a full time controller or CFO. This is where our Outsourced CFO services fill the need. It may be a systems implementation project or an ongoing internal controls project that is needed. We develop a customized plan that gets your company dedicated time with our principal CPA Steven Dabrowski. Traditional Accounting and Tax Services Traditional Accounting and Tax services usually entail a range of financial and administrative tasks. These include monthly accounting, tax return preparation, annual reports, corporate filings, and quarterly and annual payroll tax returns. Services typically include:
Back Office Accounting Services Over time Alliance has found that many companies struggle with the idea of "doing the accounting themselves" vs. the cost of outsourcing. Growth then also generally requires companies to hire bookkeepers which creates training and retention problems. Alliance has created an efficient process of providing back office services including accounts payable and accounts receivable for clients of all sizes. Costs for these programs are generally in the same budget amounts for internal bookkeepers. However, with the Alliance solution, you receive the services of a fully staffed office, CPA's to review information, no training costs, no payroll tax expense, no retention or scheduling issues. If large companies outsource these services then it will generally make economic sense for companies of all sizes. The service level is what becomes key. Full Payroll Services Alliance helps small companies and organizations deal with the stress and headaches of processing payroll. Unlike the "Payroll factories" like ADP and Paychex, Alliance includes the needs of small business by answering detailed payroll questions, consulting with owners about compensation, short delivery times, no impounding of YOUR payroll taxes, implementing appropriate benefit plans and all at a lower cost.
