Years of hands-on inventory accounting experience

I'm Edwin Aguilera, founder of TrueCount Inventory Advisory. Over 10 years, I've worked inventory accounting across very different environments — a small oil & gas company, a publicly traded corporation, and a large non-profit organization — giving me a rare range of experience with inventory systems at every scale.

Most accounting generalists treat inventory as an afterthought. I treat it as the whole job — because when inventory numbers are wrong, everything downstream (margins, taxes, cash flow forecasting) is wrong too.

TrueCount works with clients nationwide, fully remote — wherever your inventory is, I can help make sense of it.

TrueCount Inventory Advisory provides inventory accounting and controller-level consulting services. Not a CPA firm; does not provide audit, attest, or tax preparation services.

Tell me a bit about your inventory, and I'll follow up within a day.
