Why Cash Management Matters
Even profitable businesses can run into trouble if they don’t have a handle on cash. Cash flow isn’t just a number on a report—it’s the heartbeat of your business.
At Origin, we help you understand your cash position today, anticipate future needs, and build a system to manage working capital efficiently. This allows you to stay in control of operations, meet obligations on time, and take advantage of growth opportunities without risking stability.
Beyond Reporting—Into Real Strategy
Cash management with Origin is not just about producing forecasts. It’s about using those forecasts to drive smart, timely decisions. We help you understand the patterns behind your inflows and outflows, identify potential liquidity issues, and plan proactively to prevent issues before they arise. Whether it’s improving collections, adjusting payment timing, or managing cash reserves, our work is hands-on and our reporting is actionable.
Tailored for Owner-Managed Businesses
If you’re running a business with between $2M and $25M in annual revenue, cash flow challenges can appear suddenly—often during periods of growth, or seasonality. Our services are designed specifically for companies like yours: businesses that have outgrown reactive cash practices but don’t yet need a full internal finance team. We step in as your financial partner, helping you maintain liquidity, reduce stress, and support key decisions.
Short-Term Awareness, Long-Term Stability
We offer rolling 13-week cash flow forecasts, weekly dashboards, and long-term cash projections aligned with your budgeting and strategic goals. This dual view—short-term clarity plus long-term planning—gives you the insight to operate confidently and invest wisely. If you’re considering a new hire, equipment purchase, or facility expansion, you’ll know exactly how it impacts your cash runway.
Operational Integration = Faster Results
Origin’s cash management services are even more effective when paired with our bookkeeping and controller offerings. Because we already understand your numbers in detail, we can move quickly to address issues and deliver insights. Our team is embedded in your financial operations, which means you don’t have to chase multiple advisors to understand what’s happening with your cash.
Banking Strategy That Works for You
Managing cash flow also means managing relationships—with lenders, banks, and credit providers. We help you get the most out of your bank. If you’re currently using financing facilities, we’ll help you optimize how and when you use them. If you’re considering applying for one, we’ll help you prepare and present your financials effectively.
Built for Business Owners, Delivered by CPAs
With Origin, you’re not just getting reports, you’re getting a team of CPAs who understand the pressures of scaling a business. We bring a practical lens to every engagement, helping you balance financial discipline with growth objectives.
Our goal is simple: to help you turn cash into a lever, not a limitation.

What our Clients Say
We were introduced to Origin as a firm that could help us through the maternity leave of a key admin and finance person in our 18-employee company. Over a series of meetings, we developed a format that would work for our situation and implemented shortly after.
The relationship has worked very well since, delivering on both the accounting and the advisory side. It has been much more than simply filling in for a leave employee, and when that employee returns, the efficiencies and organization that Origin has built into the role will allow her to work much more effectively. Origin is an innovative company that I can recommend without hesitation.Peter Sziklai

What our Clients Say
Matt and the Origin team have transformed our financial operations at Stevenson Industrial Refrigeration. From day one, they delivered comprehensive reporting, rolling cash-flow forecasts, and expert guidance, including leading the implementation of our new accounting system and enhanced reporting templates.
The processes they put in place quickly uncovered internal theft, and they navigated the bank’s financial requirements to facilitate our company buy-back. Thanks to their clear, actionable advice, we now enjoy real-time visibility into our pipeline, resources, and cash position.
I consider Origin a true partner in accounting and finance.Bob Stevenson

What our Clients Say
Origin Accounting has been a pleasure to work with. Since bringing them onboard to be our Fractional Controller in October of 2023, the business has been running smoother, cleaner and we have a clear outlook on our financial health, cash flow, and always know where we stand with our projects.
Owning a construction company can be rewarding but also very risky so having live data to work with is critical for planning and operating successfully. I would highly recommend hiring Matt, Zohra and their team. The future is brighter with them on your side!Shayne FInskars
