Information Technology Consulting
Network design, backups, disaster recovery, and cyber safeguards from consultants who also know your books.
Overview
Accounting and technology stopped being separate problems some time ago. The systems that hold your financial data are the same systems most exposed to ransomware, hardware failure, and the quiet risk of a backup nobody has ever tested.
Our IT consultant designs and implements systems for organizations that need their technology to be dependable rather than fashionable — servers, networks, workstations, continuity plans, and the safeguards that keep a bad day from becoming a closed business.
What this engagement includes
- Server, network, and computer design and setup
- Disaster recovery solutions
- Business continuity planning
- Accounting systems consultation
- Business planning
- Special project consulting
- Software and data safeguard recommendations
Questions we're asked
Information Technology Consulting — frequently asked questions
Why would an accounting firm provide IT consulting?
Because financial systems and IT systems overlap almost entirely. Our IT consultant holds the CITP credential alongside a CPA license, which means the person designing your network also understands internal controls, segregation of duties, and how accounting data actually flows.
What does disaster recovery planning cover?
It covers what happens when systems become unavailable: where data is backed up, how quickly it can be restored, who does what, and how the organization keeps operating in the meantime. We document the plan and test the restore rather than assuming it works.
Can you help us evaluate cyber risk?
Yes. We review access controls, backup posture, patching, and the specific vulnerabilities most often exploited at small and mid-sized organizations, then recommend safeguards proportionate to your risk and budget.
Do you support cloud and remote work setups?
We do. Remote and hybrid arrangements change both your security perimeter and your payroll withholding footprint — we look at both sides when advising on the setup.
