Technical Assistance:
Online Fiscal Oversight
Some of the circumstances under which Meliora Partners, Inc. has provided online fiscal oversight:
- A finance director took medical leave and needed a temporary substitute.
- A finance director departed from the organization, leaving only bookkeepers in the finance department.
- A small nonprofit found it could not attract and hold a sufficiently qualified person to be its finance director.
In each case, a Meliora financial specialist was able to help by spending one week a month on site, reviewing the work of fiscal staff, preparing financial statements and program financial reports for the board of directors, and reporting directly to the board. The rest of the month, our financial specialist monitored the customer's accounting system through an internet connection and responded to phone and email questions from the financial staff and executive director.
Meliora can provide this service at a much more affordable rate than the cost of a full time fiscal manager. Contact us for more information about how an online financial specialist could benefit your organization.
