Pricing Clarity, Because No One Likes Unpleasant Surprises

Traditional billing punishes communication. The moment you ask a question, the clock starts. TaxOps uses fixed-fee pricing so you can ask what you need, when you need it—without surprise invoices. Our engagements are thoughtfully scoped and priced upfront, giving you cost certainty from day one.

How fixed-fee works

We start by understanding your entity structure, jurisdictions, complexity, reporting requirements, and timelines. From there, we define a clear scope of work and align on a fixed fee tied directly to that scope. This approach ensures transparency, predictability, and no incentives to limit communication.

What’s included:

  • Agreed deliverables and project management
  • Ongoing communication needed to do the work well
  • Practical guidance as the work progresses
  • Coordination with your team and key stakeholders when needed

What we don’t bill separately (within scope): 

  • Reasonable questions tied to the scoped work
  • Normal coordination and clarification calls
  • Bringing the right specialist in when the issue is within scope

When needs change:
If your needs shift and create a new project or materially change scope, we surface it early and align on scope and pricing before proceeding.

Our approach

TaxOps is a specialized tax firm built to retain the best aspects of a big-firm environment while eliminating the noise that slows businesses down. We act as a tax advocate on your side.

  • Senior-led teams with Big Four–veteran leadership
  • Practical answers that make business sense
  • Proactive guidance, not deadline-driven communication
  • Hands-on ownership, not partner bottlenecks

What our clients say

We work hard and are easy to work with. Don’t take our word for it. See what our clients have to say.

"TaxOps acts as an extension of our own tax department. They fill staffing gaps within the organization and allow us to use their tax platforms for filing in a cost efficient manner that reduces overall compliance cost. Their ability to adapt to what we need and handle all technical aspects of our state and local compliance is critical to us meeting deadlines. We value our relationship with TaxOps."

Davinia Lyon, Chief Financial Officer, Boart Longyear-Drilling Services

"Our relationship with TaxOps began with federal and state income tax filings in 2019 and has expanded over the past five years to include tax provision, sales tax compliance, R&D tax credits, and tax planning. I consider TaxOps to be the tax department of LaunchDarkly, supporting all of our tax compliance needs as our business continues to grow in size and complexity."

 Jason Y. Chan, CPA Corporate Controller Catamorphic Co. (dba LaunchDarkly)

“As a global company, we've outsourced tax reporting to TaxOps, including US tax compliance and global tax provisions. TaxOps provides the same level of ownership I would expect from an in-house tax team. They respond like coworkers, and I get tax answers when I need them. The TaxOps team meets independently to discuss challenges before bringing tax recommendations and next steps to me. We often go to TaxOps with problems that are not well-defined and get tax solutions as well as an intermediary who talks with states, auditors and customers on our behalf.”

ANNA KINNA, DIRECTOR OF FINANCE, INVINITY ENERGY SYSTEMS

"We have typically found that audit and tax professionals at a single firm rarely work together. By using an audit firm and a separate tax firm, we control the direct flow of information and are able to keep TaxOps up to speed on our business operations and issues all while preserving auditor independence. Although it may seem like more work for our operating companies, we have found it easier and much more effective and efficient for us to explain our business to TaxOps rather than having these discussions done internally within a single firm, which can lead to interpretation differences."

Andy Kober, Executive VP and CFO, BCI Broadband

“TaxOps has put together an excellent team of professionals that are experts at both a federal, state and local level and can assist in international matters, as well. I have found that the team stays abreast of the business issues and various strategies of a company and is ready to provide recommendations from a tax perspective. TaxOps is extremely responsive and thorough with their research and advice. “

Paul McKnight, CFO, SPG Solar, Inc

“TaxOps has worked with us on technical tax issues and strategies to generate value within our portfolio companies and grow FKR Acquisitions. By guiding us through tough partnership and restructuring strategies, the TaxOps team has helped put our portfolio companies in a position to be acquired when the right opportunities arise. “

Daniel Frydenlund, Chairman and Founder, FKR Acquisitions

“The services provided by TaxOps have always been delivered on a timely basis and in a very professional manner. Most importantly, however, is the firm has been very responsive to a wide variety of tax questions that we bring to them, demonstrating both depth of knowledge together with a high level of client service.”

Gary Zuiderveen, Director of Financial Reporting, PowerSecure International, Inc
