> Meet FORCS: founded by a 60+ unit restaurant controller and a 25-year restaurant operator. GAAP books plus real operations support. About Us # Restaurant accounting built by people who've run the numbers — and the restaurants FORCS Restaurant Accounting is a full-service accounting and operations firm dedicated to restaurants. We turn financial complexity into clarity for owners and multi-unit operators. FORCS Restaurant Accounting was founded to give restaurant owners something most firms can't: a partner who speaks both accounting and operations. We keep GAAP-compliant books, run payroll and tax prep, and go inside the restaurant to control inventory, recipes and prime cost. We understand the challenges restaurant owners face — unpredictable cash flow, labor complexity, inventory shrink, and the constant pressure to stay profitable while delivering a great guest experience. Most accountants only record what already happened. We help you change it: reviewing inventory, building recipes, mapping items at the line level, and delivering the weekly reporting you need to make decisions before the period closes. Whether you run a single independent restaurant or a 60+ unit franchise group, our mission is the same — build a stronger, more profitable business, on a foundation of numbers you can trust. ## At a glance - Restaurant-only accounting & operations - GAAP-compliant financials - NYC office · serving all 50 states - Accounting *and* hands-on operations support - Trusted with a 60+ unit, $120M+ group Our Team ## The people behind your numbers  Steven Mamis, MBA Founder & Managing Partner Steven has over 20 years of accounting experience, with 8 of those in the restaurant space.
