Out Sourcing

I apologize in advance if this is off topic in any way-



We are an HVAC contarctor in central California- I have been recently looking into having an out side company perform our bookkeeping services rather than in house- As a basic rule, what should one "expect" as a minimum from an out sourced provider- IE- payroll services provided, what extent should A/R be tracked, collection serices etc- Tough question (I think) the few services I have looked into seem to be ma and pa outfits that deal with smaller companies than ours-



Any links/advice would greatly be appreciated



Thanks

Larry,

I sent via your company web page (to Info@..) a copy of a document I have reviewed with clients on the Govt's recordkeeping requirements. It is a well laid out document that should assist even a mid-size company to evaluate your recordkeeping needs.

There are of course, many companies large and small that can give you advice. You many wish to speak with a 'high-end' subcontractor firm such as Robert Half Associates (Accountemps) for asssitance if you are multi=state or multi-national.

You may be surprised at the quality of work a smaller compnay can provide at a lesser cost though. You would constitute a larger portion of their overall income, so your firm would get the lions share of their time and resources.

Secondly, I would say that most firms would offer to perform all full-charge bookkeeping as well as some Human Resources duties.

Well enough friendsly advice for now I think.

A Christ> I apologize in advance if this is off topic in any way-
