Small to medium-sized businesses often find themselves juggling multiple responsibilities, striving to strike a balance between maintenance, growth, and focus. The ability to navigate financial complexities, drive operational efficiency, and position for sustained success is vital. Small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) often lack the flexibility to accomplish tax and audit projects in combination with getting tasks at the core of the business completed.  

The days of managing tax and audit services in-house is under renovation. The hurdles met within the realm of finances are prompting SMEs to enlist augmented services and this innovative solution has been of huge benefit. From cost efficiency to specialized expertise, partnering with a provider who can relieve a firm of their tax and audit requirements is a pivotal way for businesses to thrive in the challenging financial industry. 

Cayuse is an expert Managed Services Provider and a diversity owned company that stands at the forefront of this exciting progression.  

Augmentation of Tax and Audit Functions

Tax and Accounting firms in particular, have multiple points of resistance when they work toward creating their presence in a populated arena. Oftentimes, talent is less than available, as graduates opt to pursue higher-paid entry level roles amongst the more ‘popular’ firms, such as the Big 4.  

In addition, the seasons that compile a year in finance make staffing challenging. The weeks leading into April and October are overburdened, however the outlying months can turn quiet and reserved. It can be difficult to scale employees in such a way to fluctuate with this ebb and flow. 

Talent augmentation steps in to help at times when inhouse staff is overwhelmed, unavailable, or difficult to recruit. Specialized expertise enhances efficiency, accuracy, and overall service quality. Augmented services extend beyond traditional approaches while leveraging progressive, comprehensive insights and solutions.
