Running a business in Alaska comes with its own set of challenges. Whether you’re managing projects across remote locations, navigating seasonal demand, or trying to keep cash flow steady through changing market conditions, your financials need to work as hard as you do.
That’s where LLŪM comes in.
Since 1996, we’ve helped businesses across the country gain clarity, confidence, and control over their finances through outsourced accounting, bookkeeping, and fractional CFO services. We don’t believe accounting should simply track your numbers. It should help you make smarter decisions, improve profitability, and give you the confidence to grow.
Whether your business is based in Anchorage, Fairbanks, Juneau, Wasilla, or anywhere across Alaska, our experienced team is ready to provide the financial support you need without the cost of building an in-house accounting department.
Business owners don’t just want accurate financial reports. They want a financial partner who understands what those numbers actually mean.
For over 28 years, LLŪM has helped more than 1,000 businesses strengthen their financial operations, improve reporting, and make better business decisions. We combine experienced professionals, modern cloud-based systems, and proactive guidance to help you stay ahead instead of playing catch-up.
Every industry has different financial challenges. That’s why we’ve spent decades specializing in industries where accuracy and financial visibility matter most.
Job costing, WIP reporting, cash flow forecasting, and financial oversight that keep projects moving.
Inventory management, cost accounting, purchasing controls, and profitability reporting.
Billing, payroll, financial reporting, budgeting, and performance insights that support long-term growth.
No two businesses operate the same way. Some companies need a fully outsourced accounting department. Others already have an internal team but need experienced financial leadership, such as controller services. Some simply want bookkeeping they no longer have to worry about.
LLŪM provides flexible solutions that grow alongside your business.
Building an internal accounting department requires hiring, training, software, benefits, and ongoing management.
Our outsourced accounting services provide experienced professionals without the overhead.
We can help with:
You’ll have reliable financial information whenever you need it without adding another full-time employee.
Eventually, every business reaches a point where bookkeeping alone isn’t enough.
You need someone who can help interpret the numbers, identify opportunities, and guide financial decisions.
Our Fractional CFO services provide executive-level financial leadership without the expense of hiring a full-time CFO.
We help with:
Whether you’re expanding operations, improving margins, or preparing for financing, our CFO team provides practical guidance built around your goals.
Good accounting should help you sleep better at night. When your financial systems work properly, you spend less time worrying about your books and more time building your business.
That’s exactly what we help our clients achieve.
Numbers matter. But relationships matter even more.
At LLŪM, we believe every client deserves responsive communication, honest advice, and solutions tailored to their business. We don’t disappear after sending reports. We stay involved, answer questions, and help you understand what your financials are telling you.
Many of our clients have trusted us for years because they know we’ll always be available when important decisions need to be made.
Searching for an accounting partner isn’t just about finding someone who can balance the books.
Ask yourself:
LLŪM has been helping businesses answer “yes” to every one of these questions since 1996. Not sure where your finances stand today? Start with the LLŪM Diagnostic.
Many business owners seek accounting help after cash flow becomes tight, reporting falls behind, or tax deadlines become stressful.
The better approach is getting ahead before those challenges happen.
With proactive accounting and financial leadership, you’ll have clearer reporting, stronger planning, and better visibility into every financial decision your business makes.
That means fewer surprises and more opportunities to grow with confidence.
We’ve built our reputation by doing one thing exceptionally well. Helping business owners understand their numbers.
Our experienced accountants, controllers, and fractional CFOs work together to provide practical advice, dependable reporting, and financial strategies that support long-term success.
For nearly three decades, businesses have trusted LLŪM because we deliver more than accounting. We deliver confidence.
“LLŪM’s experience and assistance has been crucial as we embark on an accounting system migration. Throw in the curve ball of an unexpected change to our internal Controller, and LLŪM’s expertise in accounting best practices, across industries, and with NetSuite has been game-changing for us. Although all work is completed remotely, it feels as if our LLŪM team is here with us. Even better is that Tim, our primary contact at LLŪM, makes accounting – and learning about accounting – actually fun.”

“At the end of 2021 my company was short-staffed and way behind in accounting. We struggled to find the support and help we needed until we found LLŪM. I am so grateful to be working with Laurie, a Controller at LLŪM. She is so knowledgeable, attentive, and patient. She helped us to get caught up and still provides the continued support and mentorship that I desperately need. I do not exaggerate when I say I would not have made it through this last year without her. It’s been a great experience and I would highly recommend LLŪM to anyone with accounting needs.”

“After going through two accounting firms, we had gotten to the point of giving up on the accounting for our construction company. We could not find a specialized company that understood Timberline software alongside having good industry knowledge. We were referred by our CPA to LLŪM and from our initial meeting, we were blown away. Fast forward 2 years and we are now receiving a reliable set of financials and meeting with a Controller that understands our industry and trade.”
Building Processes & Job Costing Clarity
“LLŪM completely transformed how we manage our job costing and AR/AP. Before working with them, we didn’t have clear processes, and our WIP reports were overwhelming. Now, we not only understand our over- and under-billings, but we also have the confidence to make the right financial decisions for our projects and company growth. Their team helped us build a financial structure that gives us clarity and consistency month after month.”
Tax Savings, Financial Clarity & Strategic Partnerships
“The LLŪM team connected us with a construction-focused tax CPA who uncovered thousands of dollars in R&D credits and tax opportunities we had been missing for years. We now close our financials every month and review cash flow forecasts and WIP reports to clearly understand job performance. LLŪM also created SOPs for our internal AR/AP staff, ensuring consistency and accountability. As an owner, I finally feel confident knowing our financials are accurate, our processes are strong, and I can make informed decisions about new projects and business growth.”

“We used to be three months behind on our financials, constantly playing catch-up and making decisions with outdated information. LLŪM helped us create efficient month-end processes so we can close our books by the 15th of each month. Now, our financials are accurate, timely, and actionable. This change has freed me from being buried in details — I can finally focus on business development and driving growth instead of worrying about what’s missing in the books.”
Confidence Through Accurate WIP Reporting
“Before LLŪM, I would stay up at night worrying about cash flow and job performance because I had no clear visibility. Now, I actually look forward to our monthly CFO meetings. We review timely WIP reports, updated forecasts, and accurate financials that give me complete confidence in our numbers. Those conversations have gone from stressful to strategic — we’re making decisions based on real data, not gut instinct.”
“What sets LLŪM apart is their proactive approach. They don’t just handle the basic accounting tasks; they go above and beyond to provide valuable insights and recommendations for improving our financial health. Whenever I have a question or need assistance, their team is always responsive and readily available to provide guidance in a clear and concise manner. I highly recommend LLŪM to any business owner or individual seeking a reliable, knowledgeable and trustworthy accounting partner.”

“LLŪM came in and was our backbone in implementing Avalara and multiple automation technologies within our brand. We grew drastically and LLŪM ramped up with us throughout the whole process. Their accounting staff was attentive and responsive throughout our entire engagement. We ended up achieving growth to where we needed to hire our own accounting team and LLŪM was extremely helpful in that process as well! We couldn’t have done this without them.”
