In my view outsourcing does not work but partnering does. There are distinct differences between the two approaches such as cultures and employee utilisation. Clients do not want to hand over full control of their financial information. We use ASP technology to be able to collaborate with a client and to assist with the processes that need to be handled. We can either handle all their accounting needs or partial.
Clients are in control of their financial data at all times.
I feel this has been an important key to ease some of the concerns with accounting outsourcing. I hope this has been some help. Good luck with the thesis. Allies, on the other hand, act together for the benefit of each other in many spheres and instances where their common interests match. Their relationship is longstanding but not permanent.
