Choose your starting point

The right service depends on the control gap—not only on the document or deadline in front of you.

Use these pathways to identify the first problem that must be solved. The final scope may combine services where the accounting, compliance and reporting dependencies overlap.

How the services connect

Strong financial control is built in layers.

Higher-level reporting and advice become less dependable when the accounting foundation or statutory controls beneath them are incomplete.

01

Record

Capture, reconcile and close the accounting records so the financial base can be trusted.

02

Comply

Manage tax, VAT and payroll obligations from current records and visible statutory controls.

03

Report

Prepare management accounts and annual financial statements from supported balances.

04

Decide

Use forecasts, scenarios and financial analysis to support management decisions.

Service architecture

One connected system from source records to management decisions.

This is not a package ladder where every business must buy every service. It is a dependency map that helps identify what must be stable before the next layer can add value.

A practical first review

You do not need to diagnose the service mix before contacting LBA.

The first discussion should establish the current record position, upcoming obligations, reporting needs, urgent risks and the decisions management is trying to make. From there, the work can be sequenced around the real dependency.

Current records

How current and reconciled are the accounting records?

Upcoming obligations

Which SARS, payroll, VAT, CIPC or year-end deadlines are approaching?

Known pressure points

What is overdue, disputed, unexplained or delaying decisions?

Required outcome

What does management, SARS, a lender or another stakeholder need next?

Not sure where to start?

Book one service review and identify the real first step.

We will use the initial discussion to understand the accounting position, immediate obligations, reporting gaps and management priorities before recommending a sensible sequence of work.
