Finance Operations
Remote CFO & Controller Services
Overview
As organizations grow, finance teams often reach a point where they need stronger oversight, better reporting discipline, and more predictable finance operations — but may not be ready to hire a full-time CFO, controller, or finance manager.
ACS SYNERGY provides Remote CFO & Controller Services that combine senior-level guidance with structured operational support. This service ensures the business maintains financial stability, control, and visibility without the cost or complexity of building an in-house senior finance function prematurely.
​This offering is distinct from our Interim & On-Demand CFO Services under CFO Advisory.
Whereas that page focuses on strategic, board-level mandates, this page focuses on:
Operational reporting discipline
Controller-level oversight
Cash flow & working capital management
Month-end and compliance routines
Weekly/monthly remote finance leadership
Scalable operational support using our centralized delivery capability
It is designed for SMEs, growing mid-sized companies, and multi-entity organizations needing recurring senior support to keep their finance function controlled, efficient, and predictable.
Remote CFO
Our Remote CFOs provide ongoing senior oversight to organizations requiring leadership beyond traditional accounting but not yet needing a full-time CFO presence.
​
What we do:
Financial Leadership & Decision Support
We become your finance point-person for strategic questions, financial clarity, and business insights — supporting founders, CEOs, and management teams in key decisions.
Monthly & Quarterly Financial Reviews
We perform disciplined review of financial statements, variances, cash flow, liquidity, and margin trends, providing insights and recommendations that guide business performance.
Budgeting, Forecasting & Scenario Planning
We lead planning cycles and build rolling forecasts that give leadership forward-looking visibility, replacing guesswork with structured financial disciplines.
Performance Dashboards & KPIs
We establish KPIs, scorecards, and dashboards to help leadership monitor performance in real time and understand key drivers affecting outcomes.
Remote Finance Manager
Some organizations need recurring hands-on management of finance operations — not just high-level oversight.
​
Our Remote Finance Managers work directly with your internal team and ACS’s centralized delivery center to ensure your finance processes run smoothly.
Our support includes:
Month-End Close Management
We run the monthly close calendar, ensure reconciliations are completed, validate adjustments, and prepare financial summaries.
AP/AR & Working Capital Oversight
We oversee payables, receivables, aging reports, collection processes, and vendor management routines — improving operational cash flow.
Payroll & Expense Process Oversight
We supervise payroll posting, payment routines, reimbursements, and expense controls.
Documentation, SOPs & Process Discipline
We bring structure to finance through templates, workflows, and SOPs that improve efficiency and reduce errors.
Controller Support
​Controller-level oversight focuses on control, accuracy, compliance, and reliable reporting — addressing the gap between bookkeepers and high-level CFO support.
Our Controller support includes:
Accounting Oversight & Controls
We review journals, reconciliations, ledgers, and supporting documents to ensure the accounting is accurate, compliant, and audit-ready.
Financial Statement Preparation
We prepare or review monthly and quarterly financial statements, ensuring consistency, correctness, and completeness.
Internal Controls & Compliance Monitoring
We establish approval workflows, segregation of duties, risk controls, and compliance tools to strengthen governance.
Liaison With External Advisors
We act as the point-of-contact for auditors, tax advisors, regulatory bodies, and banks.
Compliance & Audit Coordination
Staying compliant, audit-ready, and documentation-disciplined can be challenging for SMEs and mid-sized companies that lack internal finance maturity.
Our compliance & audit support includes:
Audit-Ready Working Papers
We prepare reconciliations, audit trails, schedules, notes, and supporting documentation required for year-end audits.
Regulatory & Filing Schedules
We maintain compliance calendars and reminders for regulatory filing requirements, tax deadlines, and statutory submissions.
​Auditor Communication Management
We coordinate all audit communication and follow-up, reducing the burden on internal teams.
​SOPs & Documentation Standards
We implement documentation standards that ensure ongoing compliance with financial reporting frameworks.
