Business outsourcing services allow organizations to contract specific functions or processes to a third-party provider instead of building internal teams.

Organizations often outsource back-office functions such as IT, cybersecurity, payroll, HR and accounting, as well as front-office services, such as customer support and marketing. 

Wipfli specializes in a wide range of business outsourcing functions, including:

• Finance and accounting: Financial analysis, evaluating margins and cost drivers, grant accounting and tracking, performing month-end close, overseeing accounting department personnel, cash-flow management, financial strategic planning, reconciling vendor statements, processing and recording payroll, sales and use tax return and more.
• Cybersecurity and technology: IT help desk services, integration, IT compliance, technology training, IT governance, IT process optimization, data management, IT risk management, IT strategy, digital transformation, technology roadmap development, cybersecurity strategy and more.
• Human resources: Payroll and benefits, employee benefit plan services, HR operations and compliance, recruiting, performance management, employee handbook and policy updates, talent strategy, workforce planning, compensation and benefits philosophy, succession planning and more.
• Operations: Executing strategy, implementing organization-wide goal setting, annual operations planning, examining processes, project and initiative support, building culture, determining hiring levels and more.

We also offer fractional C-Suite services, including CFO, CHRO, COO and CIO.

There are several benefits of business outsourcing, including:

• Filling critical gaps for immediate impact: Today’s challenging labor market has left organizations struggling to secure both specialized talent and experienced leadership, especially in critical areas such as accounting and IT. Outsourcing with Wipfli gives you more reliable, consistent access to the talent you need in key roles.
• Building teams that match your growth: Organizations need strong internal teams, strategic insight and effective leadership to guide them through a rapidly changing business and economic environment. But hiring full-time in-house teams and C-suite executives isn’t always practical. Wipfli provides access to seasoned professionals at the level you need, with services that scale to match your growth. From executive leadership to critical staff, we help you build experienced teams so your organization can move faster and smarter.
• Guide change more effectively: Complex changes can stretch internal resources or challenge inexperienced staff. Wipfli offers a deep bench of specialized talent to guide your organization through pivotal initiatives and periods of transition. From M&A to system implementations, we provide access to leaders who have successfully navigated the very changes you’re facing. We work alongside your teams, offering strategic insight and hands-on support so that you can approach transformation with clarity and confidence.
