Our Approach

01

DISCOVERY

Understand your needs

Your business and its challenges are unique, and we understand that. Through the initial discovery exercise, we understand the goals of your business and formulate a plan to serve your needs. Our diverse backgrounds in industry, public sector and non-profits allow our team to ask the right questions and do a Rapid Needs Analysis so we can offer you the custom-tailored services you need.

How do we do this?

    • We assess your current accounting function, and how its resourced.
    • We review your current technology to assess if its fully utilized and identify any areas for further optimization.
    • We review job duties and analyze the FTEs to identify idle capacity and opportunities to streamline processes.
    • We identify what controls and systems you have in place to secure the company’s assets and if you are using those systems well.
    • We determine what sort of reporting analysis is required and whether the infrastructure currently in place is sufficient.
    • We familiarize ourselves with your key stakeholders and what information is most useful to them.
    • We have experience presenting directly to boards, commissions and various committees of governing bodies, and on behalf of CEOs as required.
    • Based on this analysis we present a brief report that identifies any opportunities for optimization of processes.
    • Finally, we propose a no strings attached workplan.

The cost of services that we provide will always beat the cost of total compensation for each position. Our goal is to deliver quality financial management while maximizing cash savings on labour costs.

Our business model has been designed to run your accounting and finance function in the most efficient way, guaranteeing you savings of 20% to 40% per FTE.

02

SEAMLESS TRANSITION

Integrate our resources

During transition, we ensure the appropriate integration of our assigned resource(s) with your in-house team as required to carry out your accounting and finance functions, based on your unique needs.

Whether you require a controller, finance manager, accounting support or payroll services, we deploy scalable resources to give you the results you need, while giving you cash savings on your labour costs.

    • Our flexible, two-tiered, hybrid support model means one senior resource and one junior resource assigned to your organization to ensure continuity, shared knowledge, cross-training, and flexibility with no downtime.
    • We implement all the necessary workflows and procedures and train your staff to work with newly optimized financial processes, as we transition major functions to our team.
    • Whether you have a mainstream accounting software for small business or a comprehensive ERP system, we have got you covered. We are well-versed in QuickBooks, Sage, Xero and Hubdoc, and serve as power users for various enterprise software.
    • We have redundant backups and best in class security protocols to keep your information secure and confidential.

Once we have transitioned, we become a part of your team. We are only a phone call or email away. We are happy to be on site when you need us, or stay in touch on the daily to serve your needs.

Go ahead…put us to the test! We are that confident that our hybrid support model will offer you a range of scalable services, blending traditional insourcing, outsourcing and shared services elements.
