What if none of these packages fits my business?
Then we build one for you. These packages are clear starting points, not rigid, unyielding boxes. Every Calgary business carries its own mix of bank accounts, transaction volumes, and tax filing deadlines. The right plan follows that mix.
Tell us what your business does and what you want handled. We will evaluate your books and confirm a fixed fee in writing upfront. That figure stays fixed and predictable until your business scope changes. You plan your cash flow around one known figure, not an hourly bill.
- Our Focus
Solving the Financial Pains of Alberta's Core Industries and Professional Practices
We know exactly what keeps you awake at night, because we have managed these high-stakes pressures for 15+ years. We take the financial-operation weeds off your plate so you can focus on the business you are building.
The CRA Letter Anxiety:
Do you dread opening mail from the Canada Revenue Agency about a corporate tax audit or a payroll dispute?
Hidden Tax Leaks:
The nagging feeling that you pay more corporate tax than you legally have to. Your return gets filed; your year never gets planned. Our Tax Accountant Calgary page shows how we close those leaks.
The Bookkeeping Backlog:
Books so far behind that monthly tracking has become a chaotic year-end scramble. Clean, automated monthly Bookkeeping ends that.
Blindfolded Management:
No clear read on your project or service margins, so you run the company on gut feel. Your Accounting should turn raw numbers into operational insight.
Cash Flow Uncertainty:
Cash sits in the bank account today, but nothing tells you whether it covers next quarter’s corporate tax instalment and payroll.
Strict Compliance Pressure:
High-stakes source deductions deadlines you cannot afford to miss without professional Payroll Services.
Unmade Scaling Decisions:
Major capital decisions sit unmade because nobody has run a strict financial analysis. A heavy equipment purchase, a strategic new hire, or a commercial lease expansion waits on specialized Fractional CFO Services.
Radiant Skies removes these anxieties from your plate. We manage your financial health throughout the year. Your compliance holds, month after month, and nothing waits for the final hour.
Our blogs discuss the pains that Alberta business owners go through, including the seven above.
- Our Expertise
Real Experience of Solving Small Business Financial Pains in Alberta
Built on 15+ Years of Corporate Financial Leadership
Radiant Skies is led by its founder, Waheed Khan, CPA, CFA. When you work with Radiant Skies, you work directly with him. He spent over 15 years as a controller and senior corporate finance leader inside the Alberta industries he now serves:
As controller for an Alberta construction group, he ran job costing, holdbacks, and subcontractor compliance reporting. That covered dozens of concurrent, high-stakes project builds.
He ran the financial operations of a regional boiler and pressure-vessel service company. Mobile technicians on customer sites billed complex service calls, wholesale parts, and crew time by the visit.
He held senior energy finance roles and ran the financial structure of a company servicing fracking equipment on site. The work centred on asset financing, fuel logistics, and immediate payroll against delayed producer payouts.
He managed financial pipelines inside licensed professional services firms. The workflows covered unearned client retainers, work-in-progress values, variable associate splits, and specialized PC corporate tax filings.
He directed real estate corporate finance operations. Complex commission structures, joint-venture entities, and property transactions stayed straight across multiple corporations at once.
That inside-the-industry experience shapes how we run your monthly bookkeeping, financial statements, payroll, and corporate tax. It drives our Fractional CFO forecasts the same way.
The work runs on QuickBooks® Online, with Dext®, Jobber®, and Plooto® set up where they fit your business. The tools we work in are on the How We Work page.
Above experience translates into how we will take the burden of financial management away from you within the five core sectors below:

Industries We Serve
Your trade runs on its own financial paper: the statutory holdback, the field dispatch ticket, the multi-tier brokerage statement, or the sliding-scale associate split. We keep a cloud-managed ledger that reads that paper the way you do.
Discover which project drove real profit and which one quietly consumed your summer margins. We handle precise construction job costing, track your structural holdbacks, and file annual CRA T5018 slips. We claim the full Capital Cost Allowance (CCA) on your heavy equipment fleet. Built for general contractors, custom home builders, and specialized mechanical trades.
A full route is not a profitable one until fuel, technician wages, and unbilled callback costs sit beside it. We connect Jobber® to your ledger, so you track margins across seasonal contracts and keep crew payroll on time. Built for residential cleaning, landscaping, snow removal, pest control, and repair trades.
One transport unit funds the yard while another quietly drains your cash flow. We set up your books so each truck shows its own revenue against its operating costs. We run cash forecasting before you sign a lease on your next unit. Built for well servicing, vacuum hauling, and heavy-haul logistics.
Your revenue flows through provincial billing portals, variable associate split tiers, or advanced client retainers. Your staff payroll falls due on a rigid, fixed date. We isolate your true net margin by practitioner, manage Professional Corporation (PC) structures, and separate GST-exempt treatments from taxable aesthetics. Built for medical clinics, dental offices, law firms, and engineering consultancies.
A major transaction closes and the corporate GST, team splits, and your year-end tax liabilities all demand a piece of the cheque. We track your Gross Commission Income (GCI) deal by deal and file your Personal Real Estate Corporation (PREC) return with its deferral intact. We isolate trailing renewal books of business on their own line. Built for top-producing agents, high-performing teams, and brokerages.
