We realize that it is often more cost effective to outsource certain accounting functions than providing for them within the organization, especially if certain accounting tasks are non recurring, or, if an organization does not have in-house expertise to handle certain assignments. FLA Consultants’ experience in both public accounting and in the private sector, along with specialized training in fraud deterrence and business valuation, makes the firm ideally suited to meet these needs.

Likewise, many times businesses may need the services of a more experienced accounting and finance individual, but can’t afford or justify this expense on a permanent basis. FLA Consultants can assist the business by furnishing services normally performed by a Chief Financial Officer (CF0), while eliminating the fixed overhead cost of having such a high level, experienced person on the payroll on a full time basis. By using FLA Consultants in an outsourced CFO capacity, we can provide these services, either on a routine or as need basis, while keeping costs in line. Such services include either review or preparation of financial statements, staff training and mentoring, budgeting, assistance in capital raising and financing, and strategic planning, to name just a few.

We are not auditors or regulators. We view ourselves as your business partner. We believe that it is not meaningful to prepare financial statements and reports unless management and ownership is able to use this information to direct, guide, and manage the company. Thus, as your business partner, our goal is to create value in the work we produce so that it will help grow the company, create value to shareholders, and help safeguard assets.

Although we should not be viewed as an auditor, we do know what auditors look for, and can help in the audit process by preparing the audit schedules and work papers necessary for the external audit team to quickly and expediently complete their work, thereby saving the accounting staff of the business the time of complying with the auditors’ demands, allowing the accounting staff to concentrate on their customary responsibilities. This also will reduce the cost of the external audit. FLA Consultants is trained to identify possible financial reporting or internal control problems and get these resolved before the auditors arrive.
