Have the supporting records ready when they are needed.
Explore People & Safety for crew and compliance records, and BDO’s insurance certificate tracking for policy dates, renewal history and missing evidence. Date-based insurance packets gather the matching certificates, policy register and coverage-gap report for review.
Packets use the records saved in BDO; they do not verify coverage with an insurer or guarantee an audit result. Confirm package access and setup for your company during the walkthrough.

Questions about your workflow.
Does BDO do electrical load calculations or service dispatch?
No. The package covers contractor operations for construction projects: estimating, purchasing, field production, job cost and billing. It does not promise load calculations or a residential service-call system. Bring those requirements to the walkthrough so the fit is clear.
How does BDO work with QuickBooks?
BDO prepares approved records for QuickBooks Online or QuickBooks Desktop through Web Connector. Supported transfers are confirmed during onboarding, tested and activated with your approval. BDO does not replace your accounting software.
Can I see the workflow before signing up?
Yes. The website’s interactive demo uses a fictional company and clears changes when you reload or reset it. For a review of your own process, request a walkthrough with Craig.
