The problem

Botkyrka Stadsnät was previously part of a larger municipal company. When the company was to be spun off, they looked at possible alternatives for how, among other things, finances would be handled and then chose an outsourcing solution through Accountor, which has continued since then.

The solution

Outsourcing of accounting and payroll

The result

Since we started the collaboration, Botkyrka Stadsnät has experienced great benefits through the collaboration with Accountor. It is crucial to have a professional financial partner, in order to have a well-functioning financial function in a company with a smaller organization.

At present, Botkyrka Stadsnät has contact with three consultants at Accountor; one for payroll, one for accounts receivable and payable and one for accounting, which works very well. An outsourced solution does not really mean any major difference compared to having the staff sitting in their own office. It is mainly that communication takes place digitally and over the phone instead of in an office environment.
