Why transparent offshore staffing can be easier to plan
CPA firms often compare offshore staffing against local hiring or traditional outsourcing. Our model is designed to provide dedicated people, clearer monthly cost, and better continuity than short-term task-based support.
| Model | Typical Cost Structure | Best For | Main Consideration |
|---|---|---|---|
| In-House Hiring | Salary, payroll taxes, benefits, equipment, software, training, and overhead | Partners, managers, final review, advisory, and client-facing roles | Higher cost and longer hiring timelines |
| Traditional Outsourcing | Project-based, hourly, or task-based pricing | Short-term overflow, cleanup work, and defined deliverables | Less control, less continuity, and limited team integration |
| Accountant Offshore Inc. | Market-based salary and benefits plus fixed USD 600 management support fee | Dedicated tax, audit, accounting, CAS, and admin capacity | Works best with clear workflow, training, communication, and review process |

| Mandatory benefits and payroll costs | Government-mandated benefits, payroll processing, and local employment support | Varies by compensation level |
