Introduction

In today’s rapidly evolving technological landscape, small and medium-sized businesses (SMBs) often find themselves at a crossroads. The business environment is dominated by tech giants valued at over $9 trillion, whose constant innovation and market influence can make it challenging for smaller enterprises to keep pace. These large corporations have access to cutting-edge technologies, vast resources, and economies of scale that can seem out of reach for the average SMB.

BASH Consulting, a Denver-based IT consulting firm, is dedicated to leveling the playing field. We strive to make meaningful contributions to our community by empowering small businesses to leverage technologies that were once reserved exclusively for multi-billion-dollar enterprises. Our mission is to provide the tools, expertise, and support necessary for SMBs to thrive in this competitive climate, enabling them to not only survive but to innovate and lead in their respective industries.


What We Do

At BASH Consulting, we specialize in delivering innovative, customized solutions that enable small to medium-sized businesses to ride the tech wave confidently and effectively. Our focus encompasses a wide range of services, from Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) to Software as a Service (SaaS), ensuring that our clients have access to the latest technologies without the need for prohibitive capital investments.

We understand that the rapid pace of technological change can be overwhelming. The cloud computing revolution, the rise of big data, the proliferation of software applications—all these developments offer tremendous opportunities but also present significant challenges. Our role is to guide businesses through this complex landscape, helping them to adopt and integrate new technologies in a way that aligns with their strategic objectives.


Our Expertise

We recognize that data is the lifeblood of modern businesses. In an era where information drives decision-making, competitive advantage, and customer engagement, having the right IT architecture is crucial. We pride ourselves on providing cost-effective, valuable IT architectural solutions tailored to meet the unique needs of each client.

Our expertise spans a wide spectrum of technologies. We are proficient in common back-office software suites like Microsoft Excel, Access, and Outlook, which remain essential tools for many businesses. At the same time, we have deep experience with scalable, enterprise-wide applications such as:

  • Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) systems: Integrating various business processes into a unified system.
  • Customer Relationship Management (CRM) systems): Managing interactions with current and potential customers.
  • Enterprise Asset Management (EAM) systems: Optimizing the lifecycle management of physical assets.
  • Enterprise Performance Management (EPM) systems: Monitoring and managing organizational performance according to key performance indicators.

With over a decade of experience in finance and accounting information systems, we are uniquely positioned to bridge the gap between complex technological solutions and practical business applications. We understand the nuances of financial data, compliance requirements, and the importance of accurate, timely information. Our team is adept at architecting systems that provide insightful financial results, empowering business owners and managers to make informed, strategic decisions.

Our Services

At BASH Consulting, we offer a comprehensive suite of services designed to address the diverse needs of small and medium-sized businesses. Our offerings are structured to provide end-to-end solutions, from initial planning and design to implementation and ongoing support.


Cloud Architecture

The advent of cloud computing has revolutionized the way businesses operate. The “cloud” has become ubiquitous, offering unparalleled scalability, flexibility, and access to advanced computing resources. However, many businesses are unsure about how to transition their operations to this new paradigm. We are here to bridge that gap.

  • Google Cloud Platform (GCP)
  • Microsoft Azure

Our familiarity with these platforms allows us to tailor solutions that best fit your business needs, ensuring optimal performance, security, and cost-efficiency.

In addition to cloud infrastructure, we specialize in configurable eCommerce applications with integrations to accounting systems such as QuickBooks. This integration streamlines operations, enhances customer experiences, and ensures that financial data is accurately captured and reported.

ERP Consulting (Technical/Functional)

Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) systems are powerful tools that integrate various business processes, including finance, HR, manufacturing, supply chain, services, procurement, and others. However, implementing and managing ERP systems can be complex and resource-intensive.

Accounting Information Systems

A robust accounting system is essential for any organization. It supports sustainability, feasibility, and compliance with regulatory requirements. In an increasingly complex regulatory environment, businesses must build failsafe mechanisms to ensure accurate financial reporting and withstand the scrutiny of audits.

The Importance of Compliance and Accuracy

Achieving compliance is not a “one size fits all” solution. It depends on the industry, accounting methods, and specific business needs. We understand the intricacies of financial regulations and the importance of accurate, timely information.

Evolution of Accounting and Finance Systems

Throughout our careers, we have witnessed the evolution of accounting and finance from physical bookkeeping methods to complex Excel models capable of processing vast datasets at incredible speeds. Today, modern, multi-dimensional data warehouses and advanced analytical reporting tools have become the norm.

We recognize the challenges businesses face in transitioning from traditional methods to modern systems. Letting go of familiar tools like Excel can be difficult. However, we also understand that Excel remains one of the most common and versatile tools in the business world due to its flexibility and adaptability.

Leveraging Excel and Modern Technologies

We aim to advance your organization’s capabilities by enhancing your existing Excel models and integrating them with new database technologies. By embedding database functionalities directly into spreadsheets, we help you retain the familiarity of Excel while leveraging the power of modern data management systems.
