Orion CostSeg

For CPAs & tax professionals

We never compete with your practice.

You keep the client relationship and the tax return. We do the engineering-based study and hand you a report you can stand behind. Your firm's name can go on both the preliminary estimate and the final study report.

What you receive

  • • White-labeled preliminary estimates and final study reports, branded with your firm's name
  • • A complete, fully documented study report for each engagement
  • • Fixed-fee pricing quoted upfront, before any work begins
  • • Typical turnaround of 15–20 days from receiving property documents
  • • Studies using the detailed engineering cost estimate approach described in the IRS Cost Segregation Audit Techniques Guide, priced with RSMeans construction cost data, and prepared by our in-house cost segregation analysts
