Getting started shouldn’t be another project.
Every engagement follows the same six steps, from one conversation to a dedicated team running your work on a regular cadence. A pilot cycle comes first, so nothing becomes routine until you're happy with it.
Six steps, start to finish.
The same journey applies whether you choose managed finance and accounting outsourcing or dedicated offshore staffing. Each step has a clear output before the next one starts.
Discovery
It starts with a conversation about your workload, the systems you run and what you want to change. Reach us by email or phone and we reply within one business day.
Scope
Before any engagement begins, we agree exactly which work moves to GSC, how your team will be structured and the capacity you should expect, including which engagement model fits.
Setup
The agreement is signed, system access and security are set up for your team and you are assigned a single point of contact. Read how GSC protects client data.
Knowledge Transfer
Your team walks us through current processes, systems and history. We document everything before we take anything over. We work inside the platforms you already use, such as QuickBooks, Xero, NetSuite or Sage.
Pilot
The first live cycle runs with a feedback checkpoint. Nothing becomes routine until you're happy with it.
Steady State
Ongoing delivery runs on an agreed cadence with the same team. AI tools help with routine processing and a person on your GSC team reviews every output before it reaches you. Quality is reviewed continuously and capacity scales as your needs change.
Why the handover doesn’t go wrong.
Your Team, Day One
You know exactly who's on your account from day one: a dedicated team of finance specialists, not a rotating queue.
Nothing Handed Off Blind
Knowledge transfer is a dedicated step, not an afterthought: process docs, system walkthroughs, historical review.
Built Around Your Systems
We plug into what you already run: QuickBooks, Xero, NetSuite, Sage, plus tools like Ramp and Gusto. No migration project before the real work can start.
Frequently asked questions.
Straight answers to what people ask us before they hand over the work.
What happens when I contact GSC?
We reply within one business day and set up a discovery conversation about your workload, systems and goals. Nothing is committed at this stage: the aim is to understand what you need.
How do I start working with GSC?
Book a call or contact GSC by email or phone. From there, the journey runs through six steps: discovery, scope, setup, knowledge transfer, a pilot and steady-state delivery.
What happens before an outsourcing engagement begins?
Three things: we define the scope of work, team structure and expected capacity; the agreement is signed; and security, system access and a single point of contact are set up. You also choose between outsourcing and offshore staffing at this stage.
How is work transitioned to GSC?
Through a dedicated knowledge-transfer step: process documentation, system walkthroughs and a review of historical data. A pilot delivery cycle with a feedback checkpoint follows before the work becomes routine.
How does ongoing delivery work?
Your dedicated team delivers on an agreed cadence, with ongoing quality review and a plan to scale capacity as your needs change. AI tools assist with routine processing and a person on your GSC team reviews every output before it reaches you.
How long does onboarding typically take?
Most engagements move from signed agreement to first live delivery in about two weeks, depending on how much knowledge transfer your systems need.
Can your team work inside our existing accounting systems?
Yes. We work inside QuickBooks, Xero, NetSuite, Sage or whatever you already run, alongside tools like Ramp and Gusto. We don't ask you to migrate systems just to work with us.
Will we have dedicated people working with us?
Yes. You get dedicated people who know your business, not a rotating queue. You'll always know who's working on what and who's accountable for it.
Can we start with only one part of our finance function?
Yes. You can start with a single workflow (like the close or AP) and add more whenever you're ready. The same journey applies to Client Accounting Services, US Tax Compliance, CFO & Financial Planning, Audit Support or Accounting Advisory.
