What We Do

    Build the operating system behind a stronger accounting firm.

    Genwise combines COO-level operating guidance with CTO-level implementation for U.S. accounting firms under $10 million in revenue.

    We help you clarify priorities, improve workflows, configure your systems, and support your team as new ways of working take hold. Your firm’s needs determine the starting point—a paid Rapid or Efficiency Assessment, a focused implementation project, or an Annual Partnership.

    Where we help

    Assessments

    Define the right work before implementation begins.

    Choose a focused Rapid Assessment when you have a clear direction and need a scoped roadmap, or a deeper Efficiency Assessment when priorities and underlying problems need broader investigation.

    • Rapid Assessment: targeted review of a defined implementation or optimization need.
    • Efficiency Assessment: deeper investigation across the eight pillars.
    • A Firm Roadmap with proposed scope, responsibilities, timing and investment.
    • Both are paid engagements, with scope and fees agreed before work begins.

    Implementation and ongoing support are agreed separately.

    Operating Model and Workflow Design

    Make it clear how work moves—and who owns each step.

    We help translate the way your firm wants to operate into workflows your team can follow. That includes the inputs, responsibilities, review points, and exceptions that keep work moving.

    Examples include:

    • Client onboarding and ready-to-start checklists.
    • Tax and recurring service workflows.
    • Team handoffs, review responsibilities, and escalation paths.
    • Standard operating procedures, templates, and client communication steps.

    What your team receives: documented workflows with clear ownership, completion criteria, and handoffs.

    Software Implementation and Optimization

    Make your systems fit the work your firm needs to do.

    Whether you are implementing a platform or improving one you already use, we connect configuration decisions to your actual workflows. We start with what is working and identify what needs to change. A migration is not assumed.

    Depending on your platform and scope, the work may include:

    • Practice-management configuration and workflow templates.
    • Questionnaires, document checklists, and engagement workflows.
    • Data organization, access requirements, and migration planning.
    • Testing, documentation, team training, and launch support.

    What your team receives: configured systems and practical guidance for using and maintaining the agreed setup.

    AI Enablement and Reusable Workflows

    Give your team a practical, repeatable way to use AI.

    We help firms select useful tasks, establish appropriate boundaries, and build reusable instructions that support consistent work.

    Examples include:

    • Identifying suitable use cases and approved inputs.
    • Creating reusable prompts and Skills—sets of instructions for a defined task.
    • Establishing human review and exception-handling steps.
    • Training the team and reviewing how the workflow performs.

    For example, a team member could use an approved process map to draft an internal SOP, then have the process owner check and approve it before use.

    What your team receives: defined AI workflows, reusable instructions, and review guidance appropriate to the agreed tools and tasks.

    Automation and Integration

    Connect repeatable steps while keeping ownership and exceptions visible.

    We help identify where approved systems can exchange information and where automation can reduce avoidable manual work.

    The work may include:

    • Mapping triggers, inputs, destinations, and system ownership.
    • Building and testing agreed connections.
    • Defining what happens when information is missing or a step fails.
    • Documenting monitoring, recovery, and maintenance responsibilities.

    What your team receives: tested automations with clear boundaries, an exception path, and a named owner.

    Adoption and Continuous Improvement

    Help the new way of working become everyday practice.

    After implementation, the team needs time to use the system, raise questions, and work through friction. Within the agreed support scope, we help review adoption and refine what was implemented.

    Examples include:

    • Reviewing use of the agreed templates and workflows.
    • Troubleshooting issues and clarifying operating instructions.
    • Reinforcing training and supporting internal owners.
    • Identifying refinements and priorities for future work.

    What your team receives: support for using and improving the implemented solutions. Major new projects and unrelated systems are scoped separately.

    Choose the right starting point

    When a roadmap is needed: Assessments

    Choose a paid Rapid Assessment for a focused implementation or optimization roadmap, or a paid Efficiency Assessment for a deeper review of the firm’s operating challenges. Scope and fees are agreed before work begins.

    When the need is defined: Direct implementation

    If you already know what needs to change, we can discuss a focused implementation or optimization project. We review whether the available evidence is sufficient to scope the work. Any additional assessment and its fee are agreed before that work begins.

    A full Efficiency Assessment is not required for every implementation project. If further investigation is needed to define scope, timing and investment, that discovery is agreed as a paid assessment.

    When you need implementation and continued support: Annual Partnership

    Combine an initial three-month implementation phase with nine months of adoption and optimization support for the implemented solutions.

    Deliverables, timing, responsibilities, and investment are agreed for your engagement. Major new work is scoped separately.

    Build on the systems you already have

    Your existing software, processes, and team knowledge are useful starting points. We help determine what to keep, what to improve, and where a different approach may be justified.

    If you are evaluating software, Genwise Marketplace can support discovery and comparison. Implementation turns the selected tools into a working part of your firm.

    Tell us what is working, where your team is getting stuck, and what you want to improve. We’ll discuss whether an assessment, direct implementation, or Annual Partnership is the right fit.

    An introductory conversation does not book an assessment or commit you to an engagement.
