How BDO Kendalls can help...

BDO Kendalls can add value to your dealership by providing professional independent advice to owners and managers with solutions to improve your profit, processes and people.

Compliance services
BDO Kendalls can add value to your dealership by providing independent credibility to your financial statements and tax returns. Our approach to compliance is designed to focus on key financial areas and provide our clients with confidence their financial results are accurate. At the same time we provide constructive ideas for improving business systems, processes, profit opportunities and tax minimisation.

Valuations, acquisitions & sales
Success in business depends on many things however strategy and planning for your dealership are a critical element. Whether your plans include growth, succession or exit through trade sale or initial public offering (IPO), our team of experienced professionals can assist you.

Taxation services
With every business decision, the tax consequences are an important part of the picture. Whilst tax should not drive the decision, knowing the consequences and ramifications is critical. Accordingly getting the right tax advice improves the net outcome and avoids unforseen surprises in the future. At the same time, regular review of your systems and processes reduces the risk of errors in your business processes that go undetected until a tax audit.

Profit enhancement
BDO Kendalls provides a broad range of financial management consulting services to assist with issues that go beyond financial compliance and help leaders 'future-proof' their organisations. Our profit enhancement strategies look at how dealerships manage their performance by focusing on growth and sustainability in the future.

Succession
It can take a lifetime to build a successful business, but figures show more than three quarters of founders literally throw their life's achievement away by failing to plan adequately for succession. At BDO Kendalls we have developed a range of services to deal with the critical issues of strategy and succession planning.

Training
Finding the right training needs for your organisation is an important part of your strategic direction and success. BDO Kendalls Dealer Services specialises in training for senior dealership staff in all facets of management including operational, financial and leadership skills. We partner with professional training organisations to ensure you receive quality training services from experienced motor dealer professionals.
