Identifying the need for financing may be rather easy but deciding upon the most appropriate type and source of financing for a particular project can be quite a challenge.

Is there an APS
in your future?
The Alternative Practice Structure (APS) is becoming a common organizational design for forward thinking accounting firms, even if you are not pursuing outside/PE investors.
Is your firm looking to –
· Restructure and adopt a modern governance style
· Remove regulatory oversight from a significant portion of your practice
· Enhance the value of your firm should you contemplate a PE investment
· Modernize and upgrade your internal HR policies and practices
· Demonstrate that you are being progressive and forward looking
· Design custom ownership structures for your ancillary service offerings
· Implement an APS on your time schedule and not be rushed into it
In many circumstances the adoption of an APS happens late in the game as negotiations with potential PE investors are coming to a close. Having an APS in place in advance of such talks will markedly increase your firm’s value in negotiations by minimizing post transaction transition issues.
Further, even if there is no contemplation of PE in your future, an APS brings significant governance flexibility and reduces the regulatory overhang of your firm’s operations.
If you are seeking an experienced APS design and implementation specialist, consider DANLEX Solutions LLC as your guide. It is headed by one of the most experienced APS professionals in the USA, with years of hands on practice in an APS firm as the former COO of UHY Advisors, a pioneer in the APS model.
DANLEX understands the many issues that could arise when designing an APS and works with Firm Management to structure an APS that best meets your needs while minimizing disruption to your day to day operations while fully complying with regulatory, professional ethics and other aspects of a modern day, forward thinking accounting firm.
DANLEX will coordinate with all of the various firm functions, from HR, Accounting and Finance to Marketing, IT, Time and Billing and Client Relations to ensure a smooth implementation.
If you have any questions about how an APS can be part of your future success, please do not hesitate to contact Rick David, RICK@DANLEXsolutions.com for a Confidential, No-Obligation discussion.
