Managed services are a range of business processes and functions provided by a third party provider ranging from accounting, tax, and payroll to IT services. Switching from an internally managed process or function to a managed service offers greater flexibility, greater reliability, more control over service levels and reduced demands on management time.
Managed services typically include the provision of the infrastructure and resources to support operations in exchange for a monthly fee. Consulting services on the other hand, act as an adviser to the client by identifying risks and/or issues and making recommendations to mitigate these. This is often in response to a specific scope of work, for a fixed fee.
No two businesses are the same, neither are their requirements which is why there is no ‘one size fits all’ cost structure. A good provider will work with you to create a managed services package that meets your needs, and budget accordingly.
Many managed service providers will work with you to understand the core workings of your business. This allows for a more personalised experience, a better service overall and allows internal teams to focus on other strategic objectives.
For any owner managed, middle market business, choosing a managed services provider can be a daunting prospect. You will require a trusted partner who can deliver a high-quality service. We understand that this is important which is why, at RSM, we will work with you to ensure that we can align ourselves with you and work in harmony with your business. This approach forms the basis of any good commercial relationship. We offer a comprehensive managed services framework, supported by strategic advisers and experienced technology professionals, designed to provide you with peace of mind.

We help executives thrive by offering solutions focused on your goals and based on a deep understanding of your industry.
Even the most progressive businesses are challenged to keep up with the accelerating tide of new technologies and the ever-changing landscape of tax and other regulatory requirements. These challenges have become even greater as businesses face unprecedented volatility in demand and in supply chain disruptions. Trying to overcome these challenges with a lack of resources and internal experience is daunting.
To combat this, many businesses are taking advantage of a managed services strategy and outsourced business functions, to allow them to redirect internal employees to focus on critical business initiatives to stimulate growth.
As a business owner, we know your time is valuable and is best spent concentrating on doing what you do best: Overseeing the growth and development of your company.
RSMs managed services can help you to do just that. We offer a comprehensive framework of managed services, delivered by a team of experienced professionals.
