The Real Problem
Most businesses don't have a back office. They have a patchwork.
A bookkeeper who's behind. A payroll system nobody fully understands. Tax returns done at the last minute. No consolidated view across entities. No one who actually owns the numbers. And a founder who's spending 30% of their week on things that have nothing to do with growing the business. That's not a back office. That's a liability.
01
Books that are always a month behind
You can't make good decisions without current numbers. Month-old books mean month-old decisions — and in fast-moving businesses, that's expensive.
02
Payroll that lives in someone's head
When the person who runs payroll leaves, the process leaves with them. Compliance obligations don't pause for transitions.
03
VAT or CT surprises at quarter end
Tax obligations that are tracked manually, estimated wrong, or discovered late are one of the most common sources of cash crisis in growing businesses.
04
No one who speaks to investors
A funding round, acquisition discussion, or board presentation requires financial fluency. That function either exists or the deal doesn't happen — or happens badly.
What We Cover
Five core functions
Accounting & Bookkeeping
Full-cycle accounting managed by OPS — not handed off to a junior bookkeeper with a Xero login. Month-end close, bank reconciliation, chart of accounts design, and financial statements produced on time, every time. If you're on Odoo, we implement and operate it. If you're on another system, we work with what you have while we migrate.

Bank & credit card reconciliation
Chart of accounts design & maintenance
Multi-entity & multi-currency consolidation

Payroll & HR Compliance
Payroll processed accurately, on schedule, and in compliance with the jurisdictions you operate in — UAE WPS, Canadian payroll standards, US multi-state payroll. HR file management, onboarding documentation, and leave tracking included.
UAE WPS payroll processing
Canadian & US payroll compliance
HR records & employee files
Gratuity calculation (UAE)
CFO Advisory
A senior finance voice in your business — without the full-time hire. OPS CFO advisors attend board meetings, build investor-ready models, review capital allocation, and represent the finance function in M&A and fundraising conversations.
Investor reporting & board packs
Cash flow forecasting & modelling
Fundraising financial support
M&A diligence participation
Accounts Payable & Receivable
AP and AR managed actively — not filed and forgotten. Vendor invoice processing, payment scheduling, collections management, and aging report review. AR recovery is one of the fastest sources of cash improvement for growing businesses.
Invoice processing & payment runs
AR aging management & collections
Vendor relationship administration
Cash flow impact reporting
Tax & Regulatory Compliance
VAT filing, UAE Corporate Tax compliance, and cross-border regulatory management. We prepare, file, and defend. If there's a notice, a penalty, or an audit — we handle it, with the documentation trail that makes it resolvable.
UAE VAT filing & FTA compliance
Corporate Tax (CT) management
Canadian GST/HST & provincial tax
Cross-border tax coordination

Who This Is For
Three archetypes we work with
Archetype One
The Founder-Led Business
You're running the company and the back office. The books are three weeks behind, payroll is stressful every cycle, and you haven't looked at a P&L properly in months. You need to hand this off to someone who will actually own it — and won't leave when a better job comes along.
Archetype Two
The Scaling SMB
You have a bookkeeper, maybe an accountant. But you're expanding — new entity, new market, new payroll jurisdiction, new tax obligations. The current function can't keep up and you're not ready to build a full finance team. You need the capacity and expertise without the headcount.
Archetype Three
The Pre-Transaction Business
You're heading into a funding round, an acquisition, or a strategic partnership. The data room is going to be scrutinised. Your books need to be clean, your forecasts defensible, and your CFO-level narrative sharp. You need OPS's Executive tier — and you need it before the process starts, not after it's already painful.
Client Results
From the BOaaS practice
The Funding Round That Couldn't Close.
Round closed at original valuation after OPS rebuilt the financial data room in six weeks. Zero investor conditions related to finance.
$380K in AR Nobody Was Working
$312K recovered within 90 days through structured AR management and collections process — an 82% recovery rate on aged receivables.
The VAT Bill Nobody Saw Coming
76% Penalty reduction — from AED 218K to AED 52K — through voluntary disclosure filing and compliance infrastructure built to prevent recurrence.
How It Works
From assessmentto running
We don't install software and hand you a manual. Every BOaaS engagement starts with understanding your current state — then we build the function, transition it properly, and operate it as a permanent service.
01
Back-Office Assessment
A structured review of your current accounting, payroll, and compliance functions. We identify what's missing, what's broken, and what tier of service fits your business. No obligation — just clarity.
02
Function Design & Transition Plan
We design the new back-office function — tools, workflows, reporting cadence — and build a transition plan that minimises disruption. If you have existing staff or systems, we work around them.
03
Handover & Go-Live
We take over the function. First payroll run, first month-end close, first VAT filing — all handled under OPS ownership. The transition is structured to avoid any operational gaps.
04
Ongoing Operation
OPS runs your back office. You get a dedicated point of contact, a reporting cadence that matches your business rhythm, and a finance function that answers the phone when something needs attention.

OPS Back-Office as a Service Practice
A funding round isn't won on strategy decks. It's won on clean books, accurate forecasts, and a finance function that inspires confidence. We build that.
