What we do for Garland manufacturers

Books built for manufacturing
Accrual books with inventory, landed cost and labor recorded properly all year, not fixed at year-end.
Cash planning
A rolling 13-week cash flow forecast and a working-capital plan, so the cash tied up in production is planned.

CFO-level help on pricing, hiring, equipment and expansion, worked through with you and the numbers.

The short answer
Accounovation provides outsourced accounting, month-end close and fractional CFO services to manufacturers in Garland, Texas.

Manufacturing in Garland
Garland, in eastern Dallas County, has a long-standing industrial base. Long-established companies often run on a shop rate or standard costs set years ago, and on an owner's instinct for which jobs pay. Updating the numbers usually finds margin.
Updating the shop rate and standard costs
A shop rate set years ago, before wage, rent and utility increases, quietly underprices work. We rebuild your labor and overhead rates from current costs and real billable hours, then compare them with what you're quoting, job by job.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do you work with family-owned manufacturers in Garland?
Yes. Many of our clients are family-owned. Along with the monthly accounting and costing work, we help with the financial side of succession planning: clean records, location-level reporting and a clear picture of the business.
Can you work with our existing bookkeeper?
Yes. We build on your bookkeeper's work, adding the close, costing and CFO-level reporting, rather than replacing the person who knows your vendors and customers.
Are you a CPA firm?
No. We handle the books, close, costing and CFO-level planning, and work alongside your CPA, who prepares tax returns and performs any audits. See how we work with your CPA.
