Solution Integration Limited – Testimonials
Alan and the team at Solution Integration Limited have been providing outsourced business administration and management support to Umajin since June 2007. We don't maintain any accounting functions in-house but outsource all of these to SIL and it has been a decision I have never regretted.
Alan is effectively our outsourced CFO which means Umajin gains all the benefits of an experienced senior CFO that would be hard to justify as an in-house resource. This level of experience has enabled Umajin to establish an international presence, manage foreign exchange risk and establish relationships with banking partners, auditors and other professionals that could not be achieved without the level of experience and seniority that Alan brings.
The past few years have been a time of unprecedented change and growth in our business and it has been great to be able to confidently delegate these responsibilities knowing that they will be performed accurately, efficiently and on time.
This growth has seen us doubling our staff numbers in a year and SIL ensures our increasing payroll obligations are managed smoothly. We have legal, taxation, payroll and bank accounts in New Zealand, Australia, Canada and the United States and Alan and his team have been instrumental in establishing and maintaining these.
The quality of the management information and reports that are provided to myself and the Board enable us to plan effectively and know exactly where we are heading, with no surprises.
In my role as COO, Alan provides an excellent sounding board for ideas and direction. He is easy to talk to and nothing seems like too much trouble. SIL have really helped me to delegate financial administration tasks and focus on the more strategic financial elements of our business.
