Accounting & Business Advisory for NDIS Providers

Specialist Accounting, Tax & Business Advice for NDIS Businesses

Running a successful NDIS business requires much more than delivering exceptional care. Providers operate in one of Australia’s most highly regulated industries, where managing compliance, payroll, cash flow and profitability can be just as important as providing quality support services.

At Rick & Mon Business Consultants, we have extensive experience working with NDIS providers across Australia. We understand the unique financial and operational challenges facing the sector and provide proactive accounting, taxation, payroll, compliance and business advisory services designed specifically for disability support businesses.

With offices in Narre Warren and Truganina, we proudly support NDIS providers throughout Melbourne and across Australia.

Whether you’re a sole support worker starting your journey or a large provider managing multiple locations and hundreds of employees, we’re here to help your business remain compliant, profitable and positioned for long-term growth.

We Understand the NDIS Industry

The NDIS sector is unlike any other.

High staffing costs, changing regulations, award interpretation, compliance obligations and tight operating margins mean providers need advisers who genuinely understand how the industry operates—not accountants learning as they go.

Our team has worked with a large number of NDIS providers over the years, giving us practical insight into the day-to-day challenges disability support businesses face.

We understand:

NDIS registration requirements
Financial record-keeping expectations
NDIS audits and financial documentation
Payroll compliance
SCHADS Award considerations
Contractor versus employee arrangements
Cash flow management
Staff rostering impacts on profitability
Payroll Tax obligations
Long Service Leave obligations
BAS, GST and ATO compliance
Business structures
Asset protection strategies
Business growth and expansion

Because we understand the industry, our advice is practical, commercially focused and tailored specifically to NDIS businesses.

Plan confidently for future growth
Protect business and personal assets

Our goal is to help you build a financially healthy business that can continue delivering outstanding care for years to come.

Clear reporting allows you to make confident business decisions based on reliable financial information.

Payroll Specialists for NDIS Providers

Payroll is one of the most challenging areas for disability support businesses. With wages representing a significant proportion of operating costs, even small payroll errors can have a major impact on profitability. Our team has extensive experience assisting providers with payroll systems and compliance. We assist with:

Payroll setup and management
Single Touch Payroll (STP)
Superannuation compliance

For most NDIS providers, employee wages and related on-costs represent the largest business expense. Understanding how labour costs affect your gross profit is essential for maintaining a sustainable business. We help providers:

Monitor labour cost percentages
Understand gross profit margins
Analyse business performance
Review pricing and service profitability
Forecast future staffing costs
Improve overall financial performance

Rather than simply producing financial statements, we help you understand what the numbers are telling you.

Cash Flow Management

Strong cash flow management provides stability and allows your business to continue delivering quality services with confidence.
