Outsourced Accounting for startups

Startup-ready accounting and financial support when you need it most 

Transform your startup’s financial operations from a necessary requirement into a strategic advantage. BPM’s outsourced accounting services for startups fully replace the need for an in-house team while delivering more than just accurate books.  

We provide the complete financial infrastructure, strategic insights, and expert advice needed to secure funding, make confident business decisions, and scale efficiently. Our team seamlessly integrates as your dedicated finance department, handling all accounting functions with the specialized guidance startups require—at a fraction of the cost of an internal team. 

Why startups choose outsourced accounting 

In the fast-paced startup environment, every resource counts. While innovation and product development rightfully demand your attention, sound financial management helps to create the foundation for sustainable growth. BPM’s startup-focused accounting solutions combine three essential elements for your success: 

  • Scalable technology platforms including NetSuite and Sage Intacct that scale with your business and provide real-time visibility into burn rate, runway, and other critical metrics. 
  • Startup-experienced professionals who understand both accounting fundamentals and the unique requirements of early-stage companies across technology, life sciences, consumer products, and more.
  • Funding-ready processes that satisfy investor due diligence requirements and align with your growth trajectory from seed stage through Series C and beyond. 

This integrated approach eliminates the significant expense of building an in-house finance function while providing immediate access to CFO-level experience and sophisticated capabilities that impress investors.
