Is it time for your business to start outsourcing?

By Brian Crafton, CPA | Outsourced Business Solutions Practice Leader

Outsourcing isn’t about giving up control; it’s about gaining capacity. As businesses grow, continuing to manage everything in-house can strain time, talent, and resources or expose the organization to unnecessary risk. The key is identifying which functions would improve efficiency, strengthen compliance, and allow leadership to focus on revenue-generating work.

Accounting and financial reporting are often among the first areas to benefit. With the right support, businesses can maintain accurate books, timely financial statements, and reliable close processes without the cost and complexity of expanding internal staff. Managed IT services can provide similar relief by reducing distractions caused by constantly changing technology while keeping systems secure, current, and dependable.

Outsourcing does require thoughtful planning. Selecting the right provider, protecting sensitive data, and maintaining clear communication are essential to building a successful long-term relationship. When approached strategically, outsourcing can become a meaningful advantage rather than a short-term fix.

Every business must determine when to outsource, which services make sense, and how to measure return on investment over time. Accounting and IT support are two of the most common functions businesses choose to outsource.
