Our Philosophy
Management accountants with a total focus on the performance of small and medium sized businesses thus providing the right footing for solid business development.
The firm's strength lies not only in the experience of its principals and key staff in a wide range of industries, but in its ability to intelligently apply this experience to particular circumstances, with the objective of maximizing the opportunities for profit and development.
Blackburn Lazer are management accountants and consequently work in businesses using the management information systems that we develop and install to assist our clients meet their objectives. We work with our clients to crystallize their objectives and reflect them in business plans, budgets and forecasts. We work with our clients on their product costing, pricing, range optimization and marketing plans. We continuously review, motivate and mentor our clients.
Our somewhat unique approach as accountants and business advisers is akin to an extension of our client's management team. Whereas most accountants are called in merely to do the tax or write up the books, Blackburn Lazer have the skills and technology to work much more closely with clients in all aspects of business. By working alongside our clients throughout the year, we are able to identify and highlight opportunities for business success as they arise and quickly move to arrest poor performance or cost overruns -not at the end of the financial year when it may be too late.
The company has two directors, Eric Dunn and Philip Hii, and they are supported by a staff of eleven including professional accountants and administrative staff who work with state of the art computer technology and software. Rod Blackburn, a founder of the firm, remains involved in the business as a Consultant. The firm naturally provides its clients with the normal statutory compliance services.
This experience is supplemented by a carefully selected network of advisors, established to extend our effectiveness in specialist areas such as Superannuation, Marketing, Complex Tax and Commercial Law. We have established Strategic Alliances with Ropan Financial Planning Services, and have a Professional Network that includes Business Insurance Brokers, Tax and Superannuation Specialists, Solicitors and various financial institutions.
Our emphasis is on profitability and management efficiency.
