Common questions before starting

The essentials first, with the rest tucked away until you need them.

Yes, most clients do. A common path is outsourced accounting first, then payroll and compliance once the books are steady, and wealth advisory when the founders are ready. Everything sits with one accountable team, so adding a service is a conversation, not a new vendor search.

A typical handover takes two to three weeks: we collect access and records in week one, run parallel books in week two, and go live from the next month-close. We plan the switch around year-end and GST cycles so nothing slips in between.

Yes. We work on Tally, QuickBooks, Zoho Books and Xero, and connect to your existing bank feeds, invoicing records and payroll data. If you have no setup yet, we recommend and implement the right accounting system for your size.

A named team: an engagement lead you can call, supported by accountants and reviewed by chartered accountants and lawyers in-house. You get one point of contact and documented processes, not a rotating helpdesk.

Every engagement is scoped individually, based on transaction volume, entity structure and the services you need. After one consultation you receive a written scope and a monthly fee, with no surprises. Most clients find it costs meaningfully less than building the same capability in-house.
