What we do

Outsourced accounting and billing operations engineered for SaaS scale and audit-grade controls.

Outsource Tel builds dedicated finance teams for SaaS, subscription and services businesses — from your first controller hire through full back-office at scale. Every pod is staffed with qualified accountants (CA, CPA, ACCA, CIMA), supervised by senior controllers, and embedded directly in your ERP, billing platform and bank stack.

We cover the entire order-to-cash and procure-to-pay lifecycle: subscription billing automation, invoicing, dunning and collections, vendor onboarding and payments, revenue recognition under ASC 606 and IFRS 15, payroll coordination, sales tax (US, UK VAT, EU OSS, GST), monthly reconciliations, accruals, deferred revenue waterfalls, board-pack reporting and audit support.

The result is a finance function that closes the books in five business days, keeps DSO measurably lower, and is audit-ready every quarter — not just at year end. With 91% annual retention, the controllers and analysts who learn your business stay with you long enough to compound.

FAQs

Answers to what buyers actually ask.

Procurement, engineering and finance leaders raise the same questions before signing. Here are ours, answered up front.

Can you really close our books in 5 business days?
+

Yes — once we've standardised your close calendar, automated reconciliations in BlackLine/FloQast and locked sub-ledger cutoffs, a 5-day close is consistently achievable for SaaS businesses up to several hundred million in ARR.

Do you handle US GAAP, IFRS and multi-entity consolidation?
+

Yes. Our controllers operate across US GAAP, IFRS and local GAAP, with multi-entity, multi-currency consolidation, intercompany eliminations and FX translation handled inside your ERP.

How do you protect financial data and access?
+

All access is SSO-gated with least-privilege RBAC, MFA, IP allow-listing and full audit logs. We operate under SOC 2-aligned controls with NDAs, segregation of duties and data-loss prevention.

Can your team support our external auditors?
+

Yes. We prepare PBC lists, evidence packs, walkthroughs and management responses, and we liaise directly with Big 4 and mid-tier auditors throughout fieldwork.

Do you work with US, UK and EU sales tax / VAT?
+

Yes — including US sales tax via Avalara/Anrok, UK VAT, EU OSS/IOSS, and GST jurisdictions (India, Australia, Canada). We file or hand off to your tax provider, your call.
