NOW CFO, a national fractional finance and outsourced accounting firm, announced today the acquisition of Go HQ and its sister company, Bright Flag Recruiting, which will transition to the Go HQ brand in the coming months. Founded in 2019 by entrepreneurs who lived the same back-office challenges their clients face every day, Go HQ supports Amazon DSPs, FedEx ISPs, and regional carriers with finance, HR, and operations support. Bright Flag, who was acquired by GO HQ in 2024, further expanded their ability to provide comprehensive back-office solutions by delivering recruiting services to the same customer base. Together they give NOW CFO a dedicated transportation and logistics vertical and a proven blueprint for what complete back-office support looks like when it is built around a single industry.

“This acquisition brings us a team with deep experience in the transportation and logistics industry and strengthens our ability to serve businesses in this critical sector,” said Randy Christensen, CEO of NOW CFO. “Their industry knowledge and proven track record of helping those companies navigate complex financial challenges make them a natural fit for NOW CFO. Together, we’ll bring even greater financial expertise and operational support to transportation and logistics companies across the country.”

With an expanded platform and increased financial backing, Go HQ and Bright Flag can accelerate investments in talent, technology, and infrastructure, pursue additional growth opportunities, and scale capabilities across a broader client base. Additionally, their clients gain access to NOW CFO’s national bench of consultants and a global delivery team, so owners can bring in additional, high-level financial expertise. Go HQ and Bright Flag’s leaders will join the broader NOW CFO team and lead the transportation and logistics vertical. Go HQ will continue to operate under their brand, with Bright Flag transitioning to the Go HQ brand in the coming months.

“Amazon and FedEx contractors have historically had to choose between national firms that don’t know their industry and specialists who can’t scale with them. We are thrilled to join forces with NOW CFO because it eliminates that trade-off,” said Jeff Corte, CEO of Go HQ. “Go HQ and Bright Flag bring the industry depth, and NOW CFO brings the platform, the people, and the reach. For our clients, it means deeper talent, better technology, and access to high-level financial expertise that was previously out of reach for most operators.”

Both organizations share a service-first culture built on accountability and communication, and that fit was central to the decision. Leadership describes the approach ahead as one team, one standard of service, and a continued shared investment in the technology that drives clients’ financial and operational outcomes.
