The Client was a healthcare startup acquired by a large, publicly traded company and was one of two acquisitions completed that same year. As a result of the merger, the three entities operating under systems, processes, organizational structure and geographic locations were to consolidate to create efficiencies and financial savings.
I had the opportunity to build out the Client’s accrual process to meet month-end close and financial reporting requirements by the parent company. There were many moving parts, and the results materially impacted the financials. So during this transition, I managed the accruals process to ensure reported numbers were accurate, complete and submitted on time. After implementing new procedures – such as quarterly meetings with department heads, tracking completion status of all projects and services, confirming estimates with vendors and confirming accruals with our own entities – management had better visibility into the financial statements, particularly when performing variance fluctuation analysis in each reporting period.
