Question 1

What level of responsibility can a Revaya CFO/Controller take on in a small to mid-size business?

Accepted Answer

A Revaya CFO/Controller can own the end-to-end monthly close, establish and enforce GAAP-compliant policies and internal controls, manage cash flow forecasting and working capital, and deliver management reports and KPI dashboards for leadership and boards. They coordinate audit and tax PBC lists, mentor accounting staff, partner on budgets and scenario models, and drive process improvements across your finance stack. Strategic items such as capital raises, attest work, and signing authority remain with your executives and licensed CPA.

Question 2

How does Revaya ensure U.S. GAAP compliance and audit readiness when placing a CFO/Controller?

Accepted Answer

Revaya sources and vets candidates with hands-on U.S. GAAP experience, including revenue recognition, accruals, fixed-asset accounting, and documentation discipline. Once hired, your CFO/Controller implements SOPs and close checklists, maintains reconciliations and supporting schedules, prepares PBC (prepared-by-client) lists for auditors and your CPA, and keeps files audit-ready throughout the year to reduce last-minute scrambling.

Question 3

Will a Revaya CFO/Controller work U.S. hours and integrate with our existing finance tools and workflows?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We source for U.S.-hours alignment and confirm tool proficiency during vetting so your hire can work inside your stack from day one—typically QuickBooks Online/Desktop or Xero, Bill.com for payables, Expensify for expenses, Excel or Google Sheets for analysis, and your communication and project tools such as Slack, Zoom, Asana, or ClickUp.

Question 4

How quickly can we interview and hire a qualified CFO/Controller through Revaya, and what does the process look like?

Accepted Answer

After your intake, Revaya typically presents 2–3 pre-vetted CFO/Controller profiles within 5–7 business days. You interview finalists and select the best fit. Revaya then completes HR setup, payroll, and compliance, and we maintain regular weekly and monthly check-ins with both you and your employee to ensure expectations, communication, and deliverables stay on track.

Question 5

How will cash flow forecasting, budgeting, and reporting be handled by the CFO/Controller?

Accepted Answer

Your CFO/Controller builds a 13-week cash flow model, sets AP/AR priorities to optimize working capital, and partners with leadership to develop annual budgets and rolling forecasts with clear variance explanations. They deliver board-ready monthly reporting packs and dashboards that translate financial results into actionable recommendations.

Question 6

What does Revaya manage versus our CPA firm or external auditors when working with a CFO/Controller?

Accepted Answer

Revaya manages HR, payroll, and compliance for your hire and conducts regular check-ins with both parties to support smooth collaboration. Your CPA or external auditor retains responsibility for attest work, filings, and sign-offs. The CFO/Controller prepares accurate data, analyses, reconciliations, and documentation that enable those external processes to run efficiently.
