Client stories
Specific feedback from finance teams who brought us into reconciliation, depreciation review, cleanup, or year-end support.
“They matched our three Kaohsiung lines to the register in twelve days. We still had to chase two disposal invoices ourselves, but the exception log made that chase finite instead of endless.”
“The depreciation review caught a block of CNC machines still on a fifteen-year life after we moved to continuous shifts. Correcting it before the auditor arrived saved a long explanation in the closing meeting.”
“During last year’s close they sat with our AP clerk and built the additions binder the way the Big Four team expected. Not glamorous work—exactly what we needed.”
“After the Taichung plant shut, our register still showed eighty-plus assets there. The cleanup retired them with evidence packs we could defend. I would have preferred a faster turnaround on the scrap photos, yet the final file is usable.”
“Mei-Ling’s team walked our warehouse managers through tag checks without stopping outbound shipments. That alone justified bringing in outside help for reconciliation.”
Extended story: three-plant plastics group
Southern Plastics Co. entered the close with a register that still listed assets at a decommissioned extrusion hall. Controllers had started a self-count but stopped when outbound orders peaked.
Data NexGen scoped a two-week reconciliation: plant mark-ups for assets above NT$200,000, photograph capture for CNC nameplates, and a full cost-to-GL tie-out. Forty-one ghost lines were retired with scrap contracts; seven transfers between plants were posted before auditor fieldwork.
Depreciation was recalculated only for the corrected population—avoiding a full schedule rebuild. The controller noted that two disposal invoices still had to be chased internally; the exception log made those the only open items rather than a vague “register problem.”
Extended story: mid-year life change
Harbor Precision Tools shifted several CNC cells to continuous shifts. Book lives still assumed single-shift wear. A depreciation schedule review sampled the class, documented maintenance intensity, and proposed shortened lives with residual values aligned to recent used-equipment sales.
Management approved the change with a short memo Wei-Jie drafted for the audit file. The finance manager valued having the correction before—not during—the closing meeting.
