Great accounting doesn't just keep score. It changes how you play the game.

The Foundation

Outsourced Accounting and Controller Services Beyond Bookkeeping

Most businesses treat accounting as a compliance exercise. Something that needs to get done so you can file taxes and satisfy auditors. At Sataurius, our outsourced accounting services and fractional controller team treat the accounting function as the foundation of every financial decision you make. When it is accurate, timely, and GAAP-aligned, it becomes a strategic advantage.

Our outsourced bookkeeping services go beyond data entry and reconciliations. We build complete financial operating systems: clean books that close on time, forecasts that inform real decisions, and reporting packages that pair naturally with CFO-level advisory.

Whether you need a full outsourced accounting department, a fractional controller to oversee your existing team, or outsourced controller services through a transition or audit, we bring the talent, systems, and processes to match your stage of growth.

Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a fractional controller and what do they do?+

A fractional controller is a senior accounting leader who works with your business on a part-time or shared basis. They own the monthly close, oversee bookkeepers, manage the chart of accounts, enforce internal controls, deliver GAAP-aligned financial statements, and provide the day-to-day financial discipline a growing business needs without the cost of a full-time hire.

What are outsourced controller services and who needs them?+

Outsourced controller services give you a remote controller and supporting accounting team that handle close, reporting, accounts payable and receivable, payroll oversight, and audit preparation. They are typically used by businesses with $2M to $100M in revenue that have outgrown a bookkeeper but do not yet need a full-time controller on payroll.

What is the difference between outsourced bookkeeping services and outsourced accounting services?+

Outsourced bookkeeping records daily transactions, reconciles accounts, and produces basic reports. Outsourced accounting services add controller-level oversight, GAAP-aligned financial statements, forecasting, KPI dashboards, and strategic interpretation of the numbers so leadership can make decisions.

How much do outsourced accounting and fractional controller services cost?+

Pricing depends on transaction volume, number of entities, and scope. Most Sataurius fractional controller engagements range from a few thousand dollars per month for a single-entity business to mid five figures per month for multi-entity organizations with complex consolidation needs.

When should a business outsource its accounting?+

Outsource accounting when your internal team cannot keep pace with growth, when month-end close is consistently late, when you need controller-level oversight without a full-time hire, or when you are preparing for an audit, fundraise, or transaction and need clean, defensible financials.

How quickly can Sataurius take over our accounting?+

Most transitions take 30 to 60 days depending on the complexity of your chart of accounts, number of entities, and current state of your books. We run a structured cleanup and onboarding plan so close cycles improve from month one.
