Professional Staff
We are a virtual organization with most of our professional
staff consisting of "outside professionals", having years of experience
with major corporations or consulting firms.
Our virtual staff has worked together for years on many projects
bringing a team spirit to each engagement.
Some of the advantage our structure provides our clients includes:
- We bring the right resources to the job.
Traditional organizations must use their salaried staff regardless
of their qualifications.
- Variety brings fresh ideas. Since our
professionals work on a variety of projects for many different
clients, we aren't stuck with the same old solutions.
- Our professionals are entrepreneurs. We know the value of your time and money, and we
must always be top performers to survive.
Sorry - We are not associated with the Canadian firm - Abacus II Software -
that used to market a financial accounting package.
We believe that company is no longer in business...
