Our expert team provides tailored solutions to meet your unique business needs, from bookkeeping and payroll to financial reporting and compliance.

We are in a new world. Customers, vendors and suppliers expect to do business anywhere, with seamless, online interactions — even for smaller companies and brick-and-mortar businesses.
Employees need easy access to systems, data, information and team members so they have the ability to work anywhere, anytime. And talent is everywhere — if you have tools to tap it, the policies to channel it, and the culture to enable it.
Our Vision: Business Anywhere
As a company that pioneered remote work more than 20 years ago, we understand the challenges ahead and are ready to help our clients navigate them.
Our digital-first vision, Business Anywhere, provides a blueprint for building more resilient organizations that maximize customer engagement, business operations and enterprise services for digital execution and workforce transformation.
When businesses are fully engaged digitally across all channels and mediums, their customers, vendors and suppliers enjoy optimized interactions. Employees not only have access to the resources they need for remote and virtual work, but can also create remote cultures that allow them to work together physically when needed — leading to an agile, hybrid workforce. And organizations are positioned to enhance their talent pool with freelancers, contractors and gig workers from around the world.

The Journey to Business Anywhere
Achieving a business anywhere vision can seem overwhelming. That’s why we have created a custom framework to help your organization determine how to embark on the journey.
Building on our remote-work experience, we have identified six interdependent areas that are critical to business anywhere success. Our assessment framework prioritizes those areas based on your business needs before directing specific tactics to address the most critical areas first. The six areas include:
Customer Experience
Businesses must understand and assess customer needs for better sales and marketing, product and service delivery, and relationship management.
- Assess customer needs and how well the client is meeting them
- Define experiences with empathy that solve complex business problems
- Determine solutions and accelerate getting them to market
- Customize solutions to benefit the client’s business
- Embed capabilities that make customer experience a strategic mechanism
Traditional employees, remote resources and gig workers need a blend of in-person and virtual interaction in an environment of trust.
- Enable key skills to help employees thrive in a digital, business anywhere environment
- Equip and coach executives and managers to lead virtually
- Empower and equip high-performing teams
- Define selection criteria, practices and metrics for top performance
Internal and external omni-channel approaches must allow the workforce to focus on value-added activities.
- Ensure consistency across processes
- Remove process inefficiencies
- Link processes across systems while migrating mundane work to artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning and robotics process automation technology
- Establish a process-first organization and culture
Full life-cycle cloud services and enterprise collaboration solutions must work together to enable a digital working experience.

- Increase accessibility, scalability, flexibility and efficiency through modern designs
- Replicate the desktop experience on any device
- Use Modern Workplace solutions so employees can maximize a full digital working experience

Customers, suppliers, vendors and employees need easy access to real-time, relevant data that supports continuous app development, process improvement and operational excellence initiatives.
- Design a maturity plan for business and IT competencies
- Enrich decision making with modern analytics
- Improve business outcomes through data-driven process engineering
- Build a modern, flexible platform to power reporting, analytics and AI
Organizations must put the customer and employee experience first to be agile, digitally optimized business operations.

- Enable lateral and vertical movement
Our Advantage: Experiential Enablement
As a trusted partner for many clients, we pride ourselves on experiential enablement, helping your organization embed digital solutions and thinking into its everyday thinking, not just turning over digital solutions and a playbook. One way we do this is by applying quantitative desirability, feasibility and viability measures throughout our process:
- Desirability: Do our research and insights show users want the digital solution we are proposing?
- Feasibility: Can the organization deliver the solution while achieving cost savings or avoiding additional costs?
- Viability: Does the solution add value by driving performance indicators, operational efficiencies and digital investments?
When employees begin applying this framework to every decision, they gain a more holistic look across their companies to direct digital resources toward enabling the most important customer experiences.
