Do you ever
wonder just how well your back office processes and
procedures function? If they seem to be "doing the job" does
that mean it is an area that can be left alone?
Losing money
can sometimes be due to unknown gaps within your manual
procedures, between your procedures and computer software,
or even how you use the software. Unfortunately many small
businesses can make the mistake of assuming that if they
have current "off the shelf" software then that is all that
is needed. However having the right software is only
part of the answer.
Our
experience is that there have been quite a number of
businesses heading towards financial trouble due simply to
being unaware of what gaps there were, and with others,
being at a loss to knowing how to properly close the gaps.
To identify
any gaps in these back office functions and to give you
confidence that your back office is functioning well, we
offer a range of comprehensive health checks. We take an
holistic approach to back office functions, looking at
your choice of a range of various aspects that can end
up causing monetary loss:
-
The
software product (such as type of bookkeeping & office
software, version etc)
-
Usage of
software (awareness of relevant functions, using it in
the way that your business should)
-
The
capability of your hardware to deliver what you need
-
The admin
procedures that surround your software (such as best
bookkeeping and accounting practices)
-
The office
procedures that interface with the other essential parts
of your business, and externally to customers and
suppliers
Remember, it can take only one gap to be causing you
significant pain! |
