Outsourced services keep Village of Waunakee’s accounting department on track during employee transitions

Client need:

The Village of Waunakee, Wisconsin experienced turnover in both its finance director and accounts payable clerk roles. During the transition, the Village needed someone to function as the finance director, assist with training the new accounts payable clerk, and perform the accounts payable clerk’s duties.

Baker Tilly solution:

The Village entrusted Baker Tilly’s state and local government professionals with outsourced accounting solutions to help during the transition.  The Village staff was confident that they could rely on Baker Tilly’s in-depth industry experience, innovative operational ideas, and customized service offerings. The Baker Tilly team actively took steps to ensure everyone had a positive experience with no interruptions to their daily operations.

Results:

During the transition, all accounting records were maintained at a high level and vendors and employees were paid timely and accurately. Baker Tilly is currently helping the new finance director ease into the position and providing support as needed. Due to the quality of work provided, the Village of Waunakee asked Baker Tilly to extend the accounts payable related services through June of 2017.
