IRIS Outsourcing offers a dedicated client relationship officer and a team of experts to deliver specialized, knowledge-intensive services with consistent quality and support, so accounting firms can concentrate on higher fee-earning work and customer service. Each qualified accounting professional has at least five years of experience; providing immediate access to industry expertise and seamless communication for day-to-day coordination on deliverables. The First Time Resolution (FTR) rate for IRIS Outsourcing is 90%, backed by domain expertise and precise understanding. IRIS Outsourcing is also ISO9001 and 27001 certified and ensures confidential data is protected and secured.
