Project accounting, WIP, timesheets, and milestone billing turned into board-ready numbers. We make revenue recognition and margins predictable so you can price confidently and deliver on schedule.
Complex projects generate complex data: timesheets, materials, subcontractors, and change orders. WIP builds up while billing lags, and revenue recognition becomes inconsistent. Without a clean job-costing structure, margins drift and decisions lag behind reality. Grant or R&D work adds another layer where evidence and narratives matter as much as numbers.
We fix this by aligning your project tools with a chart of accounts that supports meaningful job costing. WIP schedules are run on a pattern, milestone billing is tracked against deliverables, and timesheets roll into the ledger in a way that preserves clarity. If R&D tax credits are in scope, we help structure the process so qualifying activities and costs are captured with the right evidence. A recent client moved from inconsistent WIP to a steady monthly pack; margin slippage was flagged early, and billing was brought forward in line with progress.

Can you handle WIP and milestone billing properly?
Yes. We implement a WIP routine and ensure revenue recognition aligns with milestones and contracts, so month-end reflects the work done.
Our timesheets live in another system—can that work?
It can. We map timesheets into the ledger with the right cost codes so labour stays meaningful at the job level.
What makes a strong R&D claim?
Clear qualifying activities, costs mapped to those activities, and concise narratives. We’ll help set this up so the claim stands on its own.
