invest as much time in \u201cbusiness development\u201d (not just marketing and sales) as humanly possible. your firm\u2019s growth will make you feel that producing and delivering your services is an essential core business function for you, but some of it is not. freeing up yourself to spend more time focusing on the things that add value to your practice, and help set it apart from the

it will help you automate many routine functions and optimize your operating costs. but you still need competent people to manage, nurture and strengthen your client services and advisory functions.<br \/>\n<!--more--><br \/>\ntherefore, it makes sense to leverage paraprofessionals and transactional staff, located anywhere. cloud technology will give your firm that mobility and flexibility to let such staff work from anywhere, anytime. when you do so, your more experienced team members can start working on higher-value tasks to ensure your firm\u2019s profitability is enhanced. it also gives such talented and experienced people the much needed job satisfaction by being able to do higher-value work.<\/p>\n<p>recordkeeping and finance department operations are considered the core functions of cpas and accountants. that is why millions of businesses \u201coutsource\u201d accounting functions to accounting firms. and compliance is a huge responsibility for accountants. regulation and laws create compliance necessities, and accountants help people deal effectively with the complexity of compliance. accountants ensure that people understand what is permissible and what is not. accountants study the laws and regulations on behalf of their clients so that their clients don\u2019t have to. it is the trusted accountability of accountants to ensure compliance for their clients.<\/p>\n<h3>accounting is not a services profession<\/h3>\n<p>accounting is a <strong>knowledge<\/strong> profession. \u201cservices\u201d turn the knowledge into benefits that accountants\u2019 clients enjoy. services is a mechanism to deliver benefits of knowledge. the complexity and sheer magnitude of laws and regulations that accountants have to learn continuously are not easy for non-accountants to emulate. it is, therefore, critically important for accountants to \u201cinterpret the information\u201d to derive customized insights and intelligence about their clients\u2019 business and taxes.<\/p>\n<p>to acquire this intelligence, accountants need timely, accurate and reliable information consistently. to optimize the cost of producing such information, accounting firms cannot compromise on the quality of resources. outsourcing can help reduce the cost of quality resources to maintain healthy profitability for accounting firms. nearly 70 percent of the top 100 firms have built their business models on benefits of accounting outsourcing (work is done in the country where accounting firm is located), including offshoring (work is done in foreign countries).<\/p>\n<p><strong>why do accounting firms outsource?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>most firms that outsource consider it to address one or all of the following significant reasons strategically:<\/p>\n<p><strong>resource challenge: <\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>attracting the right talent at the right price is a challenge for many firms, especially smaller firms.<\/li>\n<li>the capital required for growth is expensive, and lower profit margins make it difficult to finance growth.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>management bandwidth:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>you may include a clause that allows you to increase the price if the client\u2019s work volume increases or decreases by, say 10 percent or more. this is the \u201creset\u201d clause that can reset pricing and also client expectations. with this clause, the client will not feel surprised for your request for a midterm pricing review and will be more amenable to consider the justifiable data points related to the proposed (required) price reset.<\/li>\n<li>but this requires your firm to lay down processes to measure the work volume of each client periodically. it could be the number of bills paid every month, the number of sales invoices processed, the number of transactions on bank\/credit card statements, and so on. without \u201cmeasurability,\u201d it will be challenging to get into pricing reset discussions with your clients. and without such periodic, mandatory measurement processes, you may end up continually reducing your firm\u2019s profitability because some clients\u2019 businesses are growing, and you are processing more work for them. now, do not get tempted to go into \u201chourly billing\u201d methods as those are proven to cause conflicts with clients and loss of trust and goodwill. it is just not worth it.<\/li>\n<li>hiring and training are time-consuming and costly activities. most small firms see a routine of trained staff leaving frequently. in the process, quality of service suffers, and firms lose sales opportunities as well as profits.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>cost-effective growth management:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>some firms may have reasonable control over resource challenges as they have enough partners\/senior staff to ensure adequate management control. such firms are ideally poised for growth, but it also means the requirement of better and profitable delivery capabilities. growth can many times be limited by the physical size of the office, and the moment the firm outgrows the office, the capital barrier to growth gets triggered as financing a bigger or second office is a major decision that affects short-term profitability and long-term business model. in such cases, outsourcing is a desirable choice to manage growth.<\/li>\n<li>as a business model, outsourcing provides three major growth-focused advantages:\n<ul>\n<li>lower cost per unit of work produced<\/li>\n<li>if offshored, adding a whole shift to create new capacity \u2013 which enables firms to serve more number of clients \/ higher volume of work<\/li>\n<li>reduced overhead and management oversight responsibilities as all the administrative functions related to the additional workforce are taken care of by the outsourcing vendor. this directly results in improved client and quality focus and hence enhancement in service delivery standards.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>while there is a cost to outsourcing, it can save your firm a significant amount of money by freeing up the capital that you can invest in other, more productive areas of your practice. outsourcing can be especially beneficial for growing and new startup firms by allowing them to conserve valuable capital instead of using it to build a costly office overhead and some internal staff. outsourcing is also beneficial for bigger firms to retain their talented and experienced staff who get increasingly frustrated with routine, repetitive, data-intensive work.<\/p>\n<h3>how to know if you should explore outsourcing\/offshoring<\/h3>\n<p>if you are experiencing one or more of these 12 common scenarios, then bringing in an outsourcing services provider might help you grow your firm much more profitably.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>you, as the firm owner\/partner, are working longer and longer hours,<\/strong> but your struggles and sacrifices are not translating into incremental benefits for your firm. we all know there\u2019s a difference between working hard and working smart. many accounting and tax professionals fool themselves into thinking that just because they are working 60-, 70- or 80-hour weeks, they are building their firms. but this isn\u2019t always the case. often, the firm owners are spending half or more of their time doing things that could easily be handled by someone else, whether this person is a lower cost staff or an outsourced professional. handing off such tasks will free you up to invest your valuable time on more strategic work that will have a more significant impact on the firm\u2019s future growth and success.<\/li>\n<li><strong>you, as the firm owner\/partner, are becoming distracted<\/strong> from the things you should be focusing on that will help grow your practice. the longer you are working yourself, chances are that the more you are not doing something that you should. there are some key tasks that only you, as the owner or partner of the firm, should be responsible for, and one of them is setting the strategic course and direction for your firm. instead, if you are spending much of your time on tasks that others could handle \u2013 whether they involve data entry, basic rechecking of work done, doing several excel calculations, human resources hiring, training and monitoring, it \u2013 or more likely running around for day-to-day firefighting \u2013 this will eventually hurt the long-term growth and even viability of your firm.<\/li>\n<li><strong>you are missing deadlines consistently.<\/strong> missed deadlines are a telltale indication that you and your existing staff are stretched too thin. for example, the books are not being closed in a timely manner; financial statements preparations are delayed every month; financial reporting is being seen as just generating it from accounting software and not really analyzing them for your clients\u2019 benefit; tax returns are being delivered late or worse \u2013 extended; either turning down new, short-term projects or if taken, not being completed on time; which in turn are resulting in you being more and more defensive on phone calls with more and more clients.<\/li>\n<li><strong>you and your staff are becoming disgruntled.<\/strong> as you and your team are stretched thin and overworked, missed deadlines aren\u2019t the only problem. motivation starts to go down, which in turn brings down productivity and quality of work. the staff begins taking sudden and more paid\/unpaid time off, or if you are a solo practitioner, your enthusiasm to get out of your home and go to your office simply vanishes.<\/li>\n<li><strong>you find it difficult to get new staff, and your staff turnover is increasing.<\/strong> countless research studies show that for consistency in business, consistency of resources is a crucial factor, and people get fed up very fast when they are stretching themselves all the time. also, when new generation staff regularly see the owners\/partners being overworked all the time, they get disillusioned with the profession very fast. they certainly value work-life balance more than previous generations, including you.<\/li>\n<li><strong>operating and compliance processes are not being followed.<\/strong> as a regulated entity, you and your firm design internal processes and standards to ensure external compliance of laws and certifications. failure to comply with accounting standards and tax laws could result in tax evasion investigation for your clients and, worse, losing practice license.<\/li>\n<li><strong>your clients are complaining.<\/strong> when your clients start frequently complaining about missed service delivery deadlines, poor quality or poor customer service, it is a clear sign that you and your existing staff are stretched too thin, and outsourced support will be beneficial.<\/li>\n<li><strong>you are making less despite working more.<\/strong> at the end of the year, you, as a firm owner or partner, realize that your best staff has made more or less the same amount of money. your working hours increased significantly, but your earnings did not proportionately increase. it is because you did not manage to go out and get more clients. that is because you were busy at your office. in such a case, outsourced support is a vital ingredient for you to change the scenario from now on.<\/li>\n<li><strong>you are not getting new clients or turning them down.<\/strong> either you can not offer the services the new clients want because of lack of expertise in certain types of services that you generally do not provide, or because there are tight time deadlines for those high-volume projects and you simply do not have enough resources because you and your staff are already too stretched. you can see new business but can\u2019t get it. the net result is stunted growth, increasing monotony and spiraling frustrations. in such cases, outsourcing is a perfect fit as it almost instantly adds new, profitable capacity to your business. and it can help you deliver services that you do not have expertise in, thereby making your firm more competitive in your market.<\/li>\n<li><strong>your firm\u2019s performance is lagging your peers.<\/strong> compare your firm\u2019s performance with that of your peers in such areas as your service quality, number and types of services they provide, overhead cost percentage, profit margins, service delivery times, customer satisfaction levels, growth rate, non-billable hours percentage, per client revenue growth, etc. and see how you measure up and whether bringing in an outsourced professional could help improve your firm\u2019s performance.<\/li>\n<li><strong>your cash flow problems are starting to grow.<\/strong> cash is king in business. poor cash flow can first increase your financing cost and ultimately lead to a total breakdown of your practice. even for firms with strong sales and more \u201ca\u201d customers, if cash is getting tied up in receivables or delayed service deliveries, it is considerable stress. outsourcing can add more productive hours, even when you are at home at night, and help you cut down service delivery times by 50 percent or more, thereby reducing receivables and their aging.<\/li>\n<li><strong>you do not have the capital for growth.<\/strong> as an accounting professional, you know it better than anyone else that your assets have to be productive and \u201cchurning.\u201d growth for accounting\/bookkeeping\/tax preparation firms generally means moving to a bigger office, increasing overhead and instant increase in cash outflow because of more staffing. in most cases, new business volume simply does not justify increased costs, and if your new sales are not coming in fast, you are in for a bottom-line-denting period. in many cases, there is simply no access to low-cost capital to fuel growth. this, too, is a perfect case for outsourcing as you \u201cshare\u201d the overhead and resources and also don\u2019t do it all yourself, saving you scarce money and time resources, yet helping you make a profit from outsourced activities.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>how to mitigate strategic risks in outsourcing<\/h3>\n<p>in a nutshell, the three significant challenges mentioned above simply get transferred to the outsourcing vendor. and if you transfer some risks, you must analyze if your outsourcing vendor can mitigate these risks. hence, it is critically essential for accounting and tax firms to ensure that the selected vendor has adequate competencies and resources to overcome these challenges. as early as possible, in your decision to outsource, do comprehensive due diligence. here is a suggested checklist to conduct your due diligence:<\/p>\n<p><strong>resources<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>does the vendor company provide services to firms similar to yours?<\/li>\n<li>is the vendor company predominantly focused on accounting and tax-related services, or is it too diversified?<\/li>\n<li>how many staff members does the vendor have?<\/li>\n<li>how many staff members does the vendor have in the accounting\/tax preparation services segment?<\/li>\n<li>are the staff members trained in the work that your firm does \/ technologies that you use?<\/li>\n<li>while on the one hand, it is good to have a vendor who \u201cunderstands\u201d accounting firms\u2019 business, on the other hand, there is a risk of you actually training your competitor-in-the-making, as the same vendor may potentially assist your competitors in your nearest geographical location. the best way to deal with this risk is to ensure that you include non-compete and non-circumvention clauses in your master agreement. at the same time, ethical vendors will not approach or accept your competitors as clients. still, it is crucial to define and agree to such expectations, e.g., the vendor should not sell to competitors in say a 5- to 10-mile radius. depending on your long-term commitment and business volume possibilities, the vendors may or may not fully agree to such limiting clauses.<\/li>\n<li>does the vendor have mostly full-time employees or part-timers?<\/li>\n<li>are most of the employees\u2019 educational backgrounds in accounting\/finance\/commerce?<\/li>\n<li>does the vendor have enough supervisory\/managerial resources to ensure quality assurance?<\/li>\n<li>at the geographic location that vendor operates from, is there a steady and adequate supply of relevantly trained workforce available?<\/li>\n<li>does the vendor have adequately quick access to reasonably cheap credit\/financing for the ramp-up of its infrastructure and resources?<\/li>\n<li>is the vendor\u2019s own office space expandable at short notice, or does the vendor have existing excess capacity?<\/li>\n<li>what is the background of promoters? do they have a strong enough financial track record?<\/li>\n<li>does the vendor agreement have a non-poaching clause? you don\u2019t want your star performers to be lured away by vendors.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>management bandwidth<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>does the vendor have enough supervisory\/managerial resources to ensure quality assurance?<\/li>\n<li>what is the top management structure of the vendor organization? are critical functions such as it, operations, sales, hr and administration, etc. led by separate managers\/executives?<\/li>\n<li>what is the quality assurance process? is there maker-checker deployment? are there adequate reviewers? are there quality control managers?<\/li>\n<li>how is the client service management handled? will the vendor dedicate one point of contact for you, with another on standby?<\/li>\n<li>what is the experience of your dedicated point of contact?<\/li>\n<li>does the vendor have formal training programs for continued professional knowledge and skills enhancement? what is the average number of hours each staff undergoes training every year? for each new hire, is there a formal, adequate training program before such new hire gets allocated to process your work?<\/li>\n<li>is there a formal \u201ctransition process\u201d for a) transitioning work from your firm to vendor office and b) transitioning work from the expert staff at the vendor to the general processing team?<\/li>\n<li>how does the vendor identify mistakes at work? how does the vendor report to clients the \u201cprocessing exceptions\u201d? how does the vendor assimilate client feedback into day-to-day processing \u2013 is there a formal process; is there some technology that gets used for knowledge management?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>cost-effective growth management<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>does the vendor have adequately quick access to reasonably cheap credit\/financing for the ramp-up of its infrastructure and resources?<\/li>\n<li>is the vendor\u2019s own office space expandable at short notice, or does the vendor have existing excess capacity?<\/li>\n<li>does the vendor\u2019s pricing ensure adequate profit margins for the vendor to be financially viable for the long term, including provisions for expansion from profits?<\/li>\n<li>does the vendor use substandard (educationally less qualified, non-accounting educational background, etc.) staffing to ensure profit margins?<\/li>\n<li>does the vendor use contract\/temporary staffing at cheaper rates to ensure profit margins?<\/li>\n<li>does the vendor have adequate it infrastructure to provide a safe and secure working environment?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><strong>twelve clues to help you decide, plus the three categories of risk.<\/strong><br \/>\n<a
