Outbooks offers three models for accountants, Staff Augmentation (Full-Time Equivalent), Pay-As-You-Go (PAYG) and Managed Service. For businesses, Staff Augmentation (FTE) and Fixed Fee Per Month are available.
In Staff Augmentation Model, you get a dedicated remote professional who works exclusively for your firm. The professional will follow your working hours and work as part of your team.
Yes, if you choose our Staff Augmentation Model, you can interview candidates beforehand to make sure the person is the right fit for your requirements and suits your working style.
Under FTE model, professionals work Monday to Friday, from 11:30am to 8:30pm QLD time. They receive 25 days of annual leave in line with Australian standards, plus sick leave as required. All leaves are planned and shared in advance.
The minimum contract period for the Staff Augmentation model is six months.
If the assigned professional does not meet your expectations then, Outbooks provides you an option to replace the resource assigned to you so that your work is not affected.
The PAYG model lets you hire professionals on an hourly basis, you only pay for the hours actually worked. It works well for one-off jobs or busy periods.
The minimum contract period under the Pay-As-You-Go model is one month.
Outbooks sends weekly timesheets with a clear breakdown of hours spent on each job, so you can keep track of the work done throughout the month.
Invoices are sent at the end of each month based on the total hours used. You do not need to wait for quotes or approvals.
No, all communication with your clients stays with your firm. Outbooks works only as your back-office team and has no direct contact with your clients.
The Managed Service model is charged on a fixed fee basis. This is either a percentage of Gross Recurring Fees (GRF) or a fixed monthly amount, depending on what is agreed.
The Fixed Fee Per Month model is available for businesses. You pay a set monthly fee based on your agreed requirements, and our professionals work according to the number of tasks given to them. The minimum contract period is three months.
It depends on your requirement. If you need someone working with you regularly, Staff Augmentation is a good fit. If your workload comes and goes, PAYG gives you more flexibility. If you want us to handle the work from start to finish, Managed Services is the right choice. Businesses that prefer a set monthly cost can go with the Fixed Fee Per Month model.
Yes. The models are not rigid. You can increase or reduce support and move between models as your needs change over time.
