Solution Providers
A service for business advisors who specialise in accounting and business financial consultancy
The Concept - A ready made IT Department at your fingertips
In order to remain competitive and to develop and protect his own client base, there is growing pressure upon accountants and financial consultants to spend increasing amounts of time and resources on acquiring and maintaining computer accounting capabilities and knowledge.
Advisors are already under enormous pressure to cope with huge demands arising from professional regulation, continued professional education, staff training, business advice, audit and taxation and new legislation. Clients however, now require far more than the installation of a sound accounting package such as Access Accounting Ltd or Sage Line 50. They will also frequently require advice in relation to many other products, facilities and services, a few examples of which are listed below:
- Product installation and training in a broad range of business software.
- Payroll systems and advice.
- Links with Database and contact management products and with Microsoft Access, Excel and other front office applications.
- Project and Job costing systems.
- E-Commerce, Web design and Internet set up.
- Specialist products that will cater for other important requirements, such as multi - pricing/manufacturing/job costing/serial number tracking/electronic bank link.
- Time recording and management software.
- Electronic Banking.
- Excel Report design.
- Seagate Crystal Report design.
- System networking.
- Computer and electronic communication between branches, departments and remote operators such as sales staff with laptops.
- Multi-currency / Foreign Trading solutions.
- Special products for certain industries such as schools, farmers, charities, nursing homes.
- Stock control and valuation.
- Human resources management.
