Technical & Operational Accounting

Deloitte’s Technical & Operational Accounting professionals leverage their deep understanding of Convergence, U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP), International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), and other reporting requirements to advise organizations on the application and implementation of complex accounting standards. We also address existing capability gaps; identify opportunities to enhance and better leverage process and technology to drive operational efficiency and effectiveness; and support transaction- and event-driven events, such as mergers and acquisitions, initial public offerings, and bankruptcy.

We provide services targeted to:

  • Financial operations and close challenges, such as delays and inefficiencies in financial close processes and human capital demands
  • Requirements to reduce overall time and effort for settlement, clearance, and reconciliation of intercompany accounts
  • Requirements to improve overall account reconciliation time and effort, while adding consistency to the process
  • External reporting challenges, including delayed filing and significant adjustments to financial statements
  • Internal control challenges, such as control deficiencies and material weaknesses
