We service interior design firms nationwide and greatly understand the needs of our design clients and their teams.
We have expert knowledge and experience in interior design accounting. What makes interior design accounting so unique is that it requires a great deal of project management together with detailed and timely bookkeeping. Timing of collection from clients and payment to vendors requires selection of the ideal accounting method that fits the needs of the individual interior design firm from a financial reporting and tax planning perspective.
Proper software selection to support the complex project management and financial reporting needs of a project is vital to running a smooth and successful interior design firm. In almost all instances, we recommend Design Manager as it is an integrated project management and full accounting software all-in-one.
In addition to our main concentration of tax preparation and planning services, we provide one-on-one training in Design Manager use from both a project management level for the design team and a bookkeeping level. We provide support services for any issues that may be encountered at the individual user level. We also provide review services on a regular or as needed basis to ensure:
- the system is being used effectively with proper cost allocation to projects,
- the project items and tasks are being completed including verifying that all applicable item specifications are invoiced, all purchase orders are properly closed, and project management reports are cleaned up,
- the accounts are being reconciled regularly, and
- to review the profitability at the project level and of the firm as a whole.
