Our Services
Pope & Co offer you a bespoke set of business accounting & management services to help you improve the performance of your business. We also provide more conventional accounting services.
Business Assessment
We work with your business management to understand your business model & then thoroughly investigate all factors that impact on performance. We report back to you in a non ambiguous, practical manner.
Business Planning
Business planning is undertaken for a number of reasons & serves a number of purposes. Whether you are undertaking planning as a result of our assessment of your business, performing a long term strategic plan or completing a plan for your financiers we will help ensure that the plan is watertight & simple to understand.
Our planning will include appropriate non financial aspects as well as profits, cash & balance sheet.
Key Performance Indicators
End of year accounts have limited use. Monthly management accounts provide more up to date information. Even better are Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) that focus on the key drivers to success & can be used on a daily or weekly basis to help you to see what is going right & what is going wrong, while it is happening. Following the Business Assessment & Planning we will help you to set up & run a bespoke set of KPIs that will help you meet your goals.
Forensic Audit
Despite the recession, one growth industry affecting costs in many businesses is fraud. As qualified forensic auditors we will examine data & records to detect & trace fraudulent transactions, interview suspects to obtain information & confessions, write investigation reports, & advise clients as to their findings & testify at trial.
Systems Implementation
We are experienced in many finance packages including SAP, Oracle, Ross, Profix, Sage, & Iris. We can assist you in choosing the correct package for your business & will provide guidance on installation.
Bookkeeping, Accounts, Audit, Secretarial & Tax
Whatever your type of business, we will be happy to provide everything from bookkeeping & budgeting through to the production of “meaningful” management accounts & statutory accounts. We can arrange an independent audit & tax service through one of our professional partners should this be required.
Outsourcing & Interim Management
We can offer a comprehensive outsourcing service for your administrative routines. Our services will cover payroll, accounts payable, accounts receivable, management accounting & financial accounts.
We also offer interim or part time financial management & management consulting should your business have a short-term requirement.
