Yes. We can assess unreconciled accounts, uncategorized transactions, duplicates, and opening balances, then propose a cleanup scope before monthly work begins. We may need bank statements and explanations from you to resolve missing or unclear records.

Construction accounting support can include AIA progress billing, schedules of values, retainage, approved change orders, billing documentation, and Procore workflows. We review your project records and agree on which billing and reporting responsibilities are included in the proposal.
