Food for Thought


Competitive Differentiation

In this day and age, all organizations are looking to differentiate themselves from one another.  Each architecture or engineering firm is looking to be different from the next one. That involves focus; getting all of the individual people in an organization working towards the same goal.  When you want to stand out from the crowd, you don’t claim that your competitive differentiation is the way that we run our reports, enter our journal entries, or process our billing.  Organizations look to their people for differentiation.  More and more organizations are looking to let someone else manage certain aspects of the business, so the people in the organization can focus on the competitive differentiation.  They say that they are not going to manage their own 401k or process their own payroll.  

Organizations are realizing that they can gain an advantage by letting somebody else manage their day-to-day accounting for them.  Outsourced Accounting Services (OAS) can manage that day-to-day accounting and help you to focus on the strengths of your firm.  

Please contact us at info@4oasllc.com to find out how we can help your people focus on competitive differentiation while we handle some of the accounting activities that distract your people from the goal.
