IHS Management LLC, Oakland

IHS Management LLC's talented bookkeepers specialize in transforming ailing hotels, clubs, and restaurants into profitable ventures, but that's only the beginning of their sizable financial knowledge. The company's services range from consulting on vendor sourcing and business efficiency to market analytics and even personal income-tax consulting. IHS's auditors also work on inventory metrics and create systems to improve productivity for companies looking to get more bang for their budget or families whose self-guided vacuum cleaner has been taking absurdly long coffee breaks. Using Intuit software, the company's professionals go onsite for bookkeeping services and training to help their clients become self-sufficient and learn the fundamentals of cash flow, depreciation, and financial audits.
