Outsourced Accounting Services for Growing Businesses.
Certum Solutions provides outsourced accounting services for growing businesses and nonprofits that need consistent, accurate financial management without the overhead of a full internal accounting department. Our outsourced accounting model delivers experienced accounting professionals, standardized processes, and ongoing support to keep your books clean, your reporting reliable, and your leadership informed. We work alongside your existing systems & teams to manage daily accounting operations while providing visibility, structure, & accountability; so your financials support growth instead of slowing it down.
This page focuses on ongoing accounting operations. Accounting software implementation and system setup are handled separately through our Accounting Implementation Services.
What Are Outsourced Accounting Services?
Outsourced accounting services involve partnering with an external accounting team to manage recurring financial tasks such as bookkeeping, reconciliations, financial reporting, and accounting oversight. Instead of hiring and managing internal staff, businesses gain access to experienced accounting professionals and proven processes on an ongoing basis.
Outsourced accounting is ideal for organizations that need:
Reliable monthly accounting operations
Clean, accurate financial records
Consistent reporting for leadership or boards
Scalability as the business grows

How This Differs From Accounting Software Implementation
Outsourced Accounting Services:
Ongoing accounting operations, bookkeeping, reporting, & oversight
Accounting Software Implementation Services:
System setup, configuration, migrations, integrations, and training
If you need new software or system changes, we handle that through a separate implementation engagement.

Bookkeeping vs Accounting Explained
At Certum Solutions, we help businesses keep their finances organized and insightful through expert bookkeeping and accounting services. Bookkeeping is the systematic recording of financial transactions (like sales, purchases, payments, payroll, and invoicing) and provides the foundation for accurate financial records.
Accounting goes a step further, analyzing and interpreting this data to produce financial statements, tax planning, budgeting, and strategic insights that support informed business decisions. Together, bookkeeping and accounting give you accurate financial data, improved cash flow management, and the clarity to grow your business confidently.
Our accounting processes adapt to industry-specific reporting and compliance needs.
Construction and trades
job costing, certified payroll, WIP reports
Manufacturing & Distribution
cost accounting, inventory, landed costs
Nonprofits
fund accounting, grant compliance, 990 prep
