Orlando accounting and tax firms serve hospitality businesses, vacation rental owners, families moving to Florida and fast-growing companies. ITServices.Tech looks after IT for Orlando accounting and tax firms through one managed plan: user support, security, backups and long-range planning.
A tourism and growth economy
Restaurants, hotels, attractions suppliers and service companies bring payroll, tips and sales tax questions. Families moving to Central Florida from other states and from Puerto Rico need help with residency and returns in more than one place, and growing companies need bookkeeping that keeps up.
Vacation rental owners
Owners of short-term rental homes near the attractions in Osceola and Orange counties must collect and remit Florida sales tax and the county tourist development tax, and many live in other states or countries. Secure portals for owners and property managers, organized records by property and protected email make that work manageable.
Your WISP and the Safeguards Rule
Paid preparers count as financial institutions for the FTC, so they need a written security plan with a named coordinator, and the yearly PTIN renewal includes a box confirming it exists. The IRS sample plan in Publication 5708 makes drafting easier. Our part is the technology the plan describes: sign-in protection, disk encryption, timely updates and verified backups, with records to match.
Remote staff and busy season
Plenty of Orlando practices bring on part-time preparers for the spring and let staff work from home in crunch weeks. Company laptops we configure and monitor, plus a protected route into the tax program, stop client files from ending up on home computers.
Storms near deadlines
Hurricane season overlaps the fall extension deadlines. Data copies kept in another region, home connections tested in summer and an agreed spot to regroup if the building is dark keep October filings on schedule.
