The Compliance Vault™
Three components. Year-round. No January scramble.
The system that turns a service promise into something we can prove — in writing, every month, for every client.
Most accountancy firms react. We designed for control.
The standard UK online accountancy model is built around January. Records arrive in a heap, filings get assembled at the deadline, and the client finds out their tax bill at the moment they can do least about it.
Compliance Vault™ runs the other way. We keep your records year-round, track every deadline before it appears on your radar, and deliver clean monthly numbers by the 7th of each month — so your tax position is visible every month, not once a year.
It is the mechanism that makes our service promise credible.
Evidence Pack. Deadline Lock. Portfolio Reporting Pack.
Three components — always exactly three. Locked names, locked roles. Nothing extra. Nothing missing.
Evidence Pack
Records, organised. Year-round. Audit-ready.
Every receipt, statement, invoice, contract, and HMRC letter you'd ever need is captured, categorised, and stored as it happens — not stockpiled until January. When HMRC asks for evidence, we already have it.
What's included
- Bank statements and reconciled transactions
- Sales and purchase invoices captured monthly
- Receipts (digital or scanned) with VAT capture
- Director's logs, mileage, and expense records
- Engagement letters, contracts, HMRC and Companies House correspondence
- All records retained for the full 6-year HMRC investigation window
Deadline Lock
Every filing tracked. Every client notified in advance.
HMRC and Companies House deadlines are tracked centrally for every client. You are notified before the deadline appears, not after. We file on time, every time — and the standard is in your engagement letter.
What's included
- Self-assessment (31 January / 31 October)
- Annual accounts and CT600 (9-month rule)
- Quarterly VAT returns and MTD quarterly submissions
- Monthly RTI submissions and pension declarations
- Confirmation statement, PSC register, dormant accounts
- Section 24 planning windows, R&D 2-year window, pension timing
Portfolio Reporting Pack
Clean monthly numbers. Delivered by the 7th.
A reconciled, audit-ready set of monthly numbers — profit and loss, balance sheet, cash position, and any vertical-specific views (property portfolio, contractor day-rate analysis, R&D-eligible spend). Delivered by the 7th of each month, every month.
What's included
- Profit and loss with month-on-month variance
- Reconciled balance sheet and cash position
- Vertical-specific views (portfolio P&L for landlords, project margin for directors, day-rate yield for contractors)
- Pending tax liability so the year-end is never a surprise
- Director's red flags and questions surfaced for the call
- Delivered by the 7th. Always.
What Compliance Vault™ is — and what it isn't.
- ›A named, owned, three-component service standard.
- ›Documented in every engagement letter and reviewed annually.
- ›The mechanism that makes our service promise credible.
- ›Included with every engagement — no add-on, no premium tier.
- ›Software. The software is incidental; the system is the value.
- ›A "package" you choose between cheaper alternatives.
- ›A storage product. It's about what happens to records, not just where they live.
- ›Anything other than the three components above. We never invent extras.
Compliance Vault™ is enforced by the Annual Compliance Review.
Every client goes through an Annual Compliance Review once per year. It's where we re-check the engagement scope, refresh KYC, confirm the fee, and review the standards with you. It is the mechanism that proves Compliance Vault™ is operational, not aspirational.
