See ScopeLynx in action

Follow one engagement from prospect to profitable client.

ScopeLynx connects the pricing decision you make before the work starts with what actually happens after the client becomes an engagement.

The engagement lifecycle

One pricing decision. A continuous profitability story.

See how information collected at the beginning becomes the baseline for every review that follows.

01
ASSESS

The prospect completes your branded assessment.

Northstar provides workload, payroll, account, transaction, reporting, and complexity information. Supporting documents can add context before your team prices the work.

PRICE

ScopeLynx turns workload into engagement economics.

Estimated hours, internal labor cost, and allocated overhead create an estimated true cost. Your firm's pricing targets then produce a recommended fee.

Pricing IntelligenceRecommended
Labor$602
Overhead$140
True cost$742
Recommended fee$1,140
Expected gross margin34.9%
03
QUOTE

The pricing decision becomes a clear client proposal.

Your team can review the scope, exclusions, pricing, and options before sending the quote. When accepted, the agreed scope becomes the engagement baseline.

VALIDATE

The 90-day review tests the original assumptions.

Once the firm has real experience servicing the client, ScopeLynx compares the baseline with actual workload and delivery reality instead of assuming the original quote was right.

PROTECT

Scope changes become visible before they quietly erase margin.

Northstar's transaction volume and support needs have grown. ScopeLynx keeps the original baseline visible so the firm can identify what changed and decide whether action is needed.

06
ACT

The Action Center turns the finding into a decision.

Instead of leaving the issue buried in a report, ScopeLynx surfaces the engagement for review so the firm can adjust scope, improve delivery, or revisit pricing.

Why the lifecycle matters

A quote shouldn't be the last time you evaluate the economics.

Client work changes. Transaction volume grows. Complexity increases. Extra requests become normal. ScopeLynx preserves the original assumptions and gives the firm structured checkpoints to compare them with reality.

Before the workKnow what the engagement should cost.
After onboardingValidate the assumptions with real delivery experience.
Over timeIdentify scope and profitability changes before renewal.
When action is neededPut the engagement in front of the right person.
Your firm's numbers. Your pricing rules.

Build the same lifecycle around your own engagements.

Configure services, internal costs, overhead, pricing targets, assessment questions, and quote settings for the way your accounting firm actually works.
