Accounts Payable Services & AP Automation Providers in Fairbanks, AK

Overview

Alliance CPAs LLC is a licensed certified public accounting firm based in downtown Fairbanks, Alaska. It works with small and mid-sized businesses, nonprofits, executives, independent professionals and individual taxpayers. Buyers comparing accounts payable support in Interior Alaska should view Alliance CPAs as a full-service CPA practice rather than a dedicated AP automation vendor.

Its outsourced bookkeeping, QuickBooks and cash flow work covers the day-to-day recordkeeping that payables depend on. The website does not describe a standalone accounts payable offering or a specific payment automation platform. Companies with high-volume invoice processing needs should confirm scope with the firm directly.

Bookkeeping and Accounting Support

The firm's business offering centers on maintaining a company's books so owners can stay focused on operations. Its outsourced bookkeeping and small business accounting services are aimed at owners who lack the time or staff to keep accurate records themselves. The firm says it handles clients across a range of industries.

It offers payroll processing alongside the books and helps with federal and state payroll compliance as well as sales and use tax questions. For companies that want higher-level oversight without a full-time hire, a part-time CFO arrangement provides a financial manager who works with leadership on direction and decision-making.

Several related services touch the payables side of a business:

• Cash flow management, including cash flow projections to help prevent a shortfall
• Internal control assessments that review operating procedures and recommend improvements
• QuickBooks setup, staff training, troubleshooting and periodic tune-ups
• Audits, reviews and compilations offering three tiers of assurance for lenders, investors and owners
• Forensic accounting and litigation support for disputes
• Bank financing preparation, business valuation and strategic advisory work

QuickBooks Focus
