Creating or documenting procedures + internal control?

My name is Cesare Maniccia, Chartered Professional Accountant. I am a designated professional with over twenty years of progressively responsible experience in working with small, medium and large companies. I provide professional services to help successfully manage growing companies.
In the challenging landscape of our industry, Cesare has been a beacon of stability and innovation for High Reach Inc. over the past two years. After our company faced significant challenges, he expertly kept us on track, spearheading essential transformations that have become foundational to our operations. Cesare was instrumental in launching a new employee benefits program, refining our hiring and job structuring, and collaborating with our team to establish a robust SOP for past orders. His innovation in integrating a cutting-edge ERP system promises to propel us further ahead, and his connections have aligned us with invaluable partners in HR and IT. Cesare's leadership in updating our website and formalizing business transactions has not only improved our external image but also streamlined our internal Backoffice operations. His revisions to our month-end processes coupled with his constant accounting support have significantly enhanced our accuracy and efficiency. Beyond his tangible contributions, having Cesare as a sounding board for business decisions has been very helpful. In essence, Cesare's multifaceted involvement has been integral in refining every aspect of High Reach Inc., and I cannot recommend his expertise enough.

We had accounting issues in 2019 and our new accounting firm recommended Cesare to help close out the year. He cleaned up open accounting issues, completed the needed reconciliations and year end accounting in order for us to close out the year for three of my companies under tight deadlines. He continued helping the accounting team with month ends, training the staff on accounting procedures and getting caught up with HST and Source Deduction filing until we were able to hire a new accountant. As well he directed and managed setting up payroll for my companies to a third party provider.

In May 2020 I purchased a civil road building company from my partners. It was a scary time during Covid 19. I had used Cesare Maniccia before for a previous acquisition and reached out for his assistance once again. He helped me through the entire process starting with the negotiations with my partners, transitioning of all services, and helping to find ways to streamline and reduce my overhead. We are currently negotiating with lenders to finance a divisional upgrade and Ces is instrumental in getting the deal done. I could not have done this without his help, and would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a "CFO for hire."

Beyond supporting our finance team, Cesare provides us with solid financial and managerial advice, effectively taking on the role of a key member of our management team, which to an organization such as ours which has undergone a great deal of change, is invaluable.

This past November I purchased a truck repair facility. Cesare Maniccia was recommended by my accountant as a "CFO for hire." This turned out to be my best move. He was instrumental in setting up our operating system, our accounting system, he introduced and recommended my banker, he set up a payroll system and helped to recruit a payroll clerk. This was a huge undertaking, and after a short period of time we were on our way. I would highly recommend Cesare to anyone needing help with restructuring, or an acquisition as we have done.

It has been a true pleasure to have Cesare providing financial consultant services for our organization! His professional, knowledgeable and client focused approach helped our team to feel comfortable and supported through the development of a complex budget and cash flow forecast. Cesare has a keen eye for detail and is able to ascertain key components of information that are critical for future success while maintaining an organized and thorough approach to his work. We would highly recommend ciim to anyone in need of financial services!

This past year our organization has initiated many initiatives to help us run more efficiently and cost effectively. We have now grown to approximately 450 employees and 30 locations. We have been fortunate enough to work with Cesare over the post couple of months directly, but we have known and worked with him for approximately 10 years. He has helped us with some Process Improvement Projects, Rebate Accrual Schedules and planning, which is not an easy feat, given the large number of vendors we deal with. He has been helping our team with new forecasting models and planning as we prepare for another round of growth for our company. I would highly recommend working with Cesare.

We contracted CIIM to assist in the acquisition of a company and our experience was a success story. Together we purchased and relocated a large amount of capital equipment in a small period of time. Our profit margin exceeded our expectations and we would definitely recommend CIIM to anyone for many different tasks. We certainly would use CIIM in the future.
