Question 1

What accounting systems do you work with?

Accepted Answer

We work across common accounting platforms and finance stacks, and we adapt to the tools you already use. We are an official implementation partner for Odoo, supporting accounting setup, workflow design, reporting structures, and integrations within the broader ERP environment. We also support widely used systems such as QuickBooks Online, Xero, Sage 50, Sage Intacct, NetSuite, and Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central. During scoping, we confirm connected tools—payroll (e.g., ADP, Ceridian Dayforce, Wagepoint, Payworks), AP/expenses (e.g., Bill.com, Dext, Expensify, SAP Concur), and reporting (e.g., Excel, Power BI)—so the workflow is clean and reporting is consistent.

Question 2

Do you support catch-up bookkeeping or cleanup work?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We support catch-up bookkeeping and cleanup work to restore accuracy and control. This typically includes reconciling key accounts, correcting coding and classification issues, aligning GST/HST/source deductions where applicable, and rebuilding a reliable month-end close and reporting cadence.

Question 3

What is the difference between bookkeeping and an interim controller or CFO?

Accepted Answer

Bookkeeping focuses on day-to-day transaction processing and keeping the books current (AP/AR, reconciliations, payroll support, and routine entries). An interim controller or CFO provides oversight and leadership—tightening close discipline, setting accounting policies, improving internal controls, producing decision-ready reporting, and guiding stakeholders on cash flow, risk, and planning.

Question 4

Do you provide month-end close support?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We can run or support the month-end close, including reconciliations, accruals and adjustments, variance review, and management reporting. The goal is a repeatable close process that improves accuracy, shortens cycle time, and gives leadership confidence in the numbers.

Question 5

Can you support multi-entity or multi-location reporting?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We support multi-entity and multi-location reporting, including intercompany structure, consolidated reporting, and standardized reporting packages across business units. We align chart of accounts and reporting definitions, so results are comparable and consolidation is efficient and defensible.

Question 6

What is included in Business Services & Outsourcing?

Accepted Answer

Business Services & Outsourcing includes interim CFO/controller support, outsourced accounting and bookkeeping, payroll management, financial reporting, IFRS consulting, and internal audit outsourcing. We tailor scope to your operating reality, whether you need day-to-day execution, a monthly reporting cadence, or interim leadership to stabilize the finance function.

Question 7

Can you support us if we already have an in-house bookkeeper or accounting staff?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We often complement in-house teams by improving month-end discipline, strengthening reconciliations, adding reporting structure, and providing oversight where capacity is limited. Support can be ongoing or project-based depending on what needs stabilizing.

Question 8

Can you take over payroll end-to-end?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We can manage payroll processing, source deductions and remittances, and year-end filings, including T4 and ROE, to reduce internal administration and improve consistency and documentation.

Question 9

Do you support IFRS transitions from ASPE?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We support businesses transitioning from ASPE or adopting IFRS by providing practical guidance, documenting accounting positions, and producing stakeholder-ready IFRS memos so the transition is clear, defensible, and operationally workable.

Question 10

What is the onboarding process and how quickly can we start?

Accepted Answer

We start by confirming your current state, priorities, and timelines. Then we stabilize the highest-impact areas first. This typically includes reconciliations, payroll reliability, and close cadence. From there, we expand into reporting and optimization. Onboarding speed depends on complexity, but the objective is to improve clarity early.

Question 11

What information do you need to scope the work efficiently?

Accepted Answer

Entity structure, current accounting process, reporting needs, close timelines, systems currently in use, and stakeholder requirements. If payroll is in scope, we also confirm pay cycles, remittance requirements, and year-end filing needs. Clear inputs reduce rework and accelerate onboarding.
