Cleanup & catch-up

Catch-Up Bookkeeping Services in Jacksonville

You do not need to explain how you got behind. We rebuild the backlog period by period, reconcile every account and hand back books you can file from.

  • Read-only access — we never move money
  • One point of contact for the whole project
  • Restated statements for every period we touch

Logistics operators fall behind during the periods that matter most, when volume is highest and everyone is moving freight rather than filing paperwork. The backlog that results is dense with fuel purchases, maintenance and equipment costs that all need attributing to the right period.

What's included

What our service covers in Jacksonville

Everything below is part of the engagement — no surprise add-ons.

Owner draw separation

Personal spending run through the business is identified and reclassified as draws, which usually changes the profit figure materially.

Prior-year comparison rebuild

Once the periods are restated we rebuild the comparatives, so you can finally see the trend across the years that were missing.

Handover documentation

You get the change log, the decisions that needed judgement and the open items we could not resolve without you.

Uncategorized backlog triage

Whatever has accumulated in uncategorized or suspense gets worked through, assigned where identifiable and listed where it needs your answer.

Period-by-period reconciliation

Every bank account, credit card and processor is reconciled for each period, which is where the real errors surface.

How it runs

What happens after you get in touch

Only the first step needs anything from you.

1

Free assessment call

We look at the file together and establish the real scope — months behind, accounts involved, condition of the records. No judgment.

2

One fixed quote

A single flat fee for the whole project before any work starts. It does not move unless you ask us to expand the scope.

3

We rebuild, then hand over

The backlog is reconstructed period by period, reconciled and documented. At the end you get corrected statements, the change log and a file your CPA can work from.

Good fit

This is a good fit if…

  • Personal and business spending have run through one account
  • Bookkeeping stopped when the person doing it left
  • You have been filing on estimates and want the real numbers
  • You have multiple entities and only one is up to date

Dense, repetitive, attributable

A freight backlog is high volume and relatively uniform, which makes it more tractable than it looks. Fuel cards, maintenance invoices and carrier charges follow patterns, and once the patterns are established the processing moves quickly.

The judgement is in equipment. Financed vehicles are frequently booked as though the whole monthly payment were an expense, and correcting that across a backlog changes both the profit figure and the balance sheet materially.

We restate it properly rather than carrying the simplification forward, and we walk you and your accountant through the effect before it lands.
