Cleanup & catch-up

Bring Your Books Up to Date in Kansas City, MO

Behind on bookkeeping in Kansas City, Missouri? We reconstruct the backlog period by period for one fixed fee — quoted after a free assessment.

  • A defensible record if returns need amending
  • A free assessment call before any fee is quoted
  • Read-only access — we never move money

Engineering and architecture practices that fall behind carry a specific distortion into the backlog. Revenue was recorded when invoices went out, at appointment or milestone, rather than when work was performed — so the reconstructed months describe billing activity rather than the practice.

What's included

What our service covers in Kansas City

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

Statement retrieval guidance

Banks hold history further back than most owners expect. We tell you exactly what to request and from whom so the reconstruction can go as far back as it needs to.

Period-end close

Each reconstructed period is closed properly rather than left open, so the next one starts from a fixed position.

Vendor and customer rebuild

Where the lists were never maintained, we rebuild them so the restated reports break down by who you actually paid and who paid you.

Period-by-period reconciliation

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

Duplicate & miscoding removal

Owner draws booked as expenses, transfers recorded as income, the same charge entered twice — all found and corrected.

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…

  • You genuinely do not know how far behind you are
  • You are switching accountants and need a clean handover
  • You have been filing on estimates and want the real numbers
  • You want to start monthly bookkeeping but need a clean baseline first

Separating billing from earning

A practice invoicing a third up front and the balance on completion has months of heavy billing and months of heavy work, and they rarely coincide. Reconstructed on invoice dates, the period shows a pattern that reflects the contract terms rather than anything about performance.

We rebuild revenue against progress where the engagements support it, using the project records the practice already keeps.

That generally changes which months look strong, and it is the version that supports a decision about resourcing or pricing.
