Client Overview
A mid-sized nonprofit organization approached us in financial and compliance distress. The organization had fallen behind on IRS filings for three years, putting its tax-exempt status and donor trust at risk.
Challenges
Overdue IRS filings and financial statements
Cash reserves down to $1,000
No structured bookkeeping or financial reporting system
Our Approach
We conducted a full review of the nonprofit’s records and implemented a structured recovery plan:
Restored Compliance: Rebuilt two years of financial data, filed all overdue reports, and liaised with the IRS to avoid penalties.
Rebuilt Systems: Implemented nonprofit accounting software, automated fund tracking, and set up monthly reconciliations.
Strengthened Financial Management: Created budgets, dashboards, and internal controls to ensure sustainability.
Results
✅ Full IRS and state compliance restored
✅ Bank balance grew from $1,000 to $2 million within nine months
✅Real-time reporting and financial transparency achieved
Impact
The nonprofit regained compliance, rebuilt donor confidence, and established a sustainable financial foundation. With clear visibility and controls in place, leadership can now focus fully on their mission and growth.
Industry: Trading and Distribution Firm
Client Size: Mid-sized enterprise
Background
Our client, a fast-growing distribution company, faced severe cash flow constraints despite stable sales. The business was heavily reliant on short-term loans and overdraft facilities to manage day-to-day operations.
Challenges

Increasing finance costs and reduced cash flexibility
Our Approach

Designed a structured payment run process aligned with cash inflows
Negotiated new credit terms (from immediate payment to 30 days) with all major vendors
Implemented cash flow monitoring dashboards for management visibility
Results
✅ Working capital requirement reduced by $3.5 million
✅Significantly lower dependency on OD/loan facilities
✅Improved cash predictability and liquidity
Key Takeaway
By aligning vendor terms with operational cash flow and instilling process discipline, the business strengthened its liquidity and reduced financial stress.
