Review our Tech Stack

Efficiency starts with utilizing a proven set of tools that get the job done, while reducing errors and workarounds. Our Tech Stack ensures we can provide consistent results to all of our clients. The result is also a team of subject matter experts who can resolve issues as quickly as possible.

Initial Pricing Prerequisites

If you are interested in in receiving a ball-park price by the end of your consultation, we will need to put some real data into our crystal ball. The more items that you can provide beforehand, the better the accuracy of the preliminary price. However, we will require a client assessment and additional information before finalizing the prices.

You can review the list of the items we will need for the initial pricing estimate here.

Step 1 - Onboarding

We’ll discuss your needs, pain points, and future focus strategy in order to determine which level of service will deliver the results you are seeking from outsourcing your finance and accounting.

Our pricing charts provide an overview of the services offered in each tier.

Step 2 - Client Assessment

We perform a client assessment of all clients. We evaluate business processes to identify gaps, identify opportunities for improvement, assess internal control risks, and map out how to move you from chaos and inefficiencies to reliable financial data for strategic planning. At the end of our “mini-audit”, we provide a report of our findings, include recommendations, and diagram the transition to a new normal by utilizing our virtual CFO services.

This step also minimizes price changes because unexpected issues popped up after onboarding.

We do charge a one-time fee for our client assessment.  It is value-added work, and you will receive a deliverable that you can use whether you decide to utilize our services or not.

Step 3 - Client Implementation

After the client assessment and acceptance of proposal of subscription services, we begin the client implementation. We will work with you to organize your information, so you can be confident that the reports we issue are both accurate and adhere to industry standards. Implementation includes orientation and setup of systems.

Next, we develop your specific forecast, key performance indications, and necessary budgets, depending on the services selected.

We agree on a GoLive date and work with you to make sure your financial records are error-free as of that date.

The process takes a couple of weeks, depending on the level of service requested. 

Beginning with the first month of going live, you will receive real-time monthly financial results of your operations. Now you can focus on winning more government contracts and strategically growing the business.

We would like to thank you and your team for all of the hard work over the years working as the Interclypse external accountant. As a new business we could not have achieved what we have without your oversight, experience, and constant mentoring. We will continue to refer new startup businesses to Cheryl Jefferson & Associates especially those that plan to do business with the federal government. Again, we cannot thank you enough for the support you have given Interclypse.

We approached Cheryl Jefferson & Associates as we were looking for an accounting firm to assist us in becoming DCAA compliance. I appreciate CJA’s knowledge of government contracting and found the experience to be immensely professional. I highly recommend CJA to businesses that need government contract accounting.

We approached CJA because our former accountant was leaving this space and sent us a list of accountants that we could check out. The first call I made was to CJA. They were so thorough, and so professional, I didn’t feel the need to reach to anyone else. As a small company that wants to grow in size, they are so good about making sure all of the accounting and bookkeeping is in line with that goal. I feel really good about the fact that as we grow, our accounting procedures and our books will be compliant.

I approached Cheryl Jefferson & Associates as they were a local company and we needed government contracting compliance. We are now compliant and I am thrilled with the personalize service I received. CJA was always readily accessible to respond to my inquiries. This has overall been an enjoyable experience and I would recommend CJA to any company that needs government compliance.

We got official notification from DCAA that our review was a success! The auditor told me that his office had determined that our system was satisfactory on all points, and the written report would be available soon. Thanks so much for all the help CJA provided!
