5 Account Outsourcing Firms Shortlisted In India For Small Businesses

In the last ten years, both technology and communication have become increasingly inexpensive and several mid-size enterprises find it quite easy to enjoy the same advantages of better service and lower cost by outsourcing accounting operations.

Key Factors for Deciding Accounting Outsourcing 

• The company has to identify the strategy that is driving the outsourcing decision and communicate it to all stakeholders so that their views can be considered.
• Then the company has to examine the full range of options at their disposal. Should they open a captive unit; should they go for a shared services arrangement; should they go for near shoring or off shoring?
• The internal capabilities of the division whose work is being outsourced should be analyzed and whether the team has the skills to transfer and manage the outsourcing of the process.
• The scope and logic of the business line that is going to be outsourced should be finalized.
