Service
Outsourced accounting department
A complete finance function — bookkeeping, payables, receivables, payroll, reporting and oversight.
Overview
What outsourced accounting department covers
Instead of hiring, training and covering for an internal team, you get one engagement covering the full accounting cycle with defined roles and review layers.
Work is split between preparers and a reviewer, so no single person controls a transaction end to end.
Problems this service solves
- Key-person risk when one staff member holds all finance knowledge
- Cost and difficulty of recruiting finance staff
- No segregation of duties in a small team
- Coverage gaps during holidays and turnover
What you receive
- Full-cycle bookkeeping and reconciliation
- Accounts payable and receivable management
- Payroll support and reporting
- Monthly close and management reporting pack
- Controller-level review and documented procedures

Fit
