Client Accounting Services

Dembo Jones offers a wide range of client accounting services to complement your current accounting structure and to help you grow into the future. Whether you’re looking to fill a specific role on a fractional or as-needed basis, or outsource your entire accounting department (as if we were your CFO or Controller), we have the expertise to advise on, support or perform your accounting function – temporarily or permanently. We will work with you to tailor a custom accounting solution unique to your current and future needs in an effort to best serve you and your organization.

You will work with our specialized team of outsourcing professionals who are dedicated to offering this level of assistance. They have explicit, advanced training in how to seamlessly accomplish all or part of a company’s accounting operations. Your CAS engagement will be led by our directors and managers, creating a streamlined, deadline-driven process that ensures accuracy, minimizes costs, and keeps you connected at every step with the seasoned professionals leading your account. We’re small enough to deliver personal attention and large enough to provide full service.

Generally, CAS engagements are performed virtually using cloud based technology that is accessible by all involved parties and updated at regular intervals. This takes part or all of the accounting function out of your organization, allowing you to focus on your mission instead of running a corporate accounting department. This arrangement also preserves the institutional accounting knowledge gained throughout our engagements. Since you will be serviced by a team, that knowledge cannot simply walk out the door.

We are unique in our industry by having low staff turnover. That means you will benefit from having a trusted, ongoing relationship with a forward-looking business partner who is deeply knowledgeable about your operations and always eager to offer advice to advance your goals.

Our outsourcing services include:

• Create a chart of accounts
• General ledger maintenance and review
• Month-end account reconciliations, accruals, and close
• Online bill-pay processing and payroll processing
• Accounts receivable collections and cash management
• Preparation of payroll, sales and use, and other miscellaneous tax returns
• Computation of indirect cost rate
• Development of accounting policies, procedures, and internal controls
• Compilation of financial statements
• Annual audit preparation and assistance
• Review or prepare annual tax filings
• Virtual Controller services including financial reporting and projecting, assisting in budgeting, generally presenting this to a finance committee, management, or owners.
• Collaborative Virtual CFO services which takes a deep dive into financial strategy, modeling, analysis, and oversight. We are deeply involved with client staff and work together to solve problems to move your organization to where you want it to be.
