The production capacity your firm needs. Without the staffing constraint.
You review. You sign. You keep the client relationship. We handle the production. AI produces the working paper pack - a CA(SA) reviews it, and it goes straight into your review queue. Basic work same day. AFS compilations within 48 hours. Built to your house standard.
First engagement, zero risk. We produce the deliverable. You evaluate it against your own standard. Pay only if it meets that standard.
The staffing problem is not getting better.
The SAICA pipeline is contracting. Junior candidates cost more than they produce, churn within two years, and need supervision that eats partner time. You are billing work at R250 per hour that should have been done by a trainee - because there is no trainee available.
The backlog is real. AFS compilations sitting four weeks past deadline. New clients turned away because you have no capacity to take them on. Partners doing production work on Friday afternoons.
Brincker & Co is not a software subscription. You engage us per file, the same way you would engage a specialist subcontractor. Send us a trial balance. We return a complete, reviewer-ready working paper pack within 48 hours. You review it against your own standard. You pay only if it meets that standard.
How we work.
- 01
You send us the trial balance, prior year AFS, and basic entity details. We confirm scope and issue a fixed-fee quote within one business day.
- 02
We produce a complete working paper pack and draft AFS - IFRS for SMEs compliant, Companies Act 2008 referenced, cross-indexed and disclosure-complete. No templates. No shortcuts.
- 03
You receive the output within 48 hours and review it against your own standard.
- 04
If it meets your standard, we invoice. If it does not, you pay nothing. That is the entire risk structure.
Built to your review standard, not ours.
Every working paper pack we produce follows the same structure your team already reviews. Lead schedules, trial balance reconciliation, adjusting journal entries, note disclosures referenced to the Companies Act 2008, and a finalisation checklist. We do not produce a foreign format that your team has to relearn. We produce what you already expect - faster and without the staffing constraint.
Built with SARS practice notes, Companies Act 2008, and SA-specific tax case law embedded. Not a US tool adapted for SA. Built here.
Who signs every file.
Peter Brincker
CA(SA) · SAICA Registered
Trained at PwC. Years in FP&A across multinational and listed groups. He reviews every working paper pack before it leaves us - not as a final check, but as a CA-level review on top of what the system already produces. Every file that reaches your review queue has already been reviewed by a qualified CA.
The system Peter reviews was built by Neil Brincker (Azure AI Engineer Associate) - purpose-built for SA professional services compliance from the ground up, not adapted from a US product.
What it costs.
All fees are fixed and quoted before we start. Complexity is assessed on transaction volume, prior year adjustments, and disclosure requirements. You get a number before we touch the file.
Questions we get asked.
One trial balance. 48 hours. No upfront payment.
Send us a trial balance and prior year AFS for one private company client. We return a complete, reviewer-ready working paper pack within 48 hours. If it meets your standard, you pay R5,000. If it does not, you pay nothing. No contract. No retainer. No obligation to send us another file.
