Compliance shouldn't live in a spreadsheet. We build it into your system.
Most compliance failures aren't knowledge problems — they're system problems: books kept in scattered files, invoices that don't match declarations, payroll computed by hand. ALSM implements the platform that fits your business, configures it around Rwandan requirements, and stands behind it as your accountants.
Two platforms. One recommendation — based on your operations.
Because ALSM is an authorised partner of both Zoho and Frappe, our advice isn't driven by which licence we sell. We assess your size, sector and workflows, and implement the system that actually fits.
The connected cloud suiteThe cloud suite for SMEs and growing companies — accounting, payroll, HR and sales in one connected stack, live in weeks rather than months. We implement it, configure your chart of accounts to IFRS, map your VAT treatment, and train your team.
What we deliver
- IFRS-aligned chart of accounts and Rwandan VAT configuration from day one
- Payroll set up with PAYE, RSSB and statutory deductions computed in-system
- Historical books migrated and reconciled — not just dumped
- Team training plus ongoing support from the firm that reviews your compliance
Best fit
- SMEs, service firms, startups and NGOs moving off spreadsheets
- Teams that want a connected cloud suite running quickly, with low admin
The open-source ERP for operations that outgrow off-the-shelf tools — manufacturing, distribution, multi-entity groups and project-driven organisations. We implement, customise and localise it for Rwanda, with your statutory reporting built in.
What we deliver
- Customised workflows for production, stock, projects and approvals
- Multi-entity and multi-currency structures with consolidated reporting
- Rwandan VAT, payroll deductions and IFRS statements configured natively
- No per-user licence lock-in — you own your system and your data
Best fit
- Manufacturers, distributors, multi-entity and donor-funded operations
- Groups that need full ownership, customisation and control
The honest comparison.
A rule of thumb from the team that implements both — the final call always depends on your specific operations.
Our promise: because ALSM partners with both, our recommendation is based on your operations — not on which licence we sell. If neither platform fits, we'll tell you that too.
Localisation is the difference between software and compliance.
Any consultant can install an accounting system. ALSM configures it so the system itself keeps you compliant — as the accountants who file your declarations and face your auditors.
EBM-aligned invoicing
Sales and e-invoicing configured to align with RRA's Electronic Billing Machine requirements from day one — so invoices and declarations always match.
VAT by design
Rwandan VAT treatments mapped to your products and services in-system — standard, exempt and zero-rated — not maintained in side spreadsheets.
PAYE & RSSB payroll
Statutory deductions computed automatically each cycle, with outputs that reconcile to your myRRA and RSSB filings.
IFRS chart of accounts
A structure that produces financial statements your auditor — and your bank — will accept, without year-end remapping.
Declaration-ready reports
Monthly outputs built to feed your PAYE, VAT and withholding declarations directly — the 15th stops being a scramble.
Audit trails that hold
Clean approval flows, locked periods and reconciled records — so year-end is a review, not an archaeology dig.
The system that runs your business keeps you compliant.
From scattered files to a running system, in five steps.
Discover
We map your operations, entities, tax profile and reporting needs — and recommend the platform that fits.
Configure
IFRS chart of accounts, Rwandan VAT treatment, payroll deductions and approval workflows set up correctly.
Migrate
Historical data moved and reconciled — opening balances that actually balance, not a fresh-start fudge.
Train
Your team trained on their daily workflows, with documentation they'll actually use.
Support
Ongoing support from the same team that reviews your compliance — one accountable partner.
Implementers who are also your accountants.
A software vendor's job ends at go-live. Ours doesn't — because the same firm that implements your system files your declarations, runs your payroll and faces your auditors. When the system and the compliance are one team, nothing falls between them.
It's why our configurations start from the filing requirement and work backwards — and why our clients' year-ends are reviews, not rescues.
