Does your firm know you’re looking to outsource your returns?

I'm in indsutry and this is new 😅

Man, this is all over the place. I’d honestly put out an RFP especially given the scope and data requirements. Agree that with that volume, outsourcing makes sense, but a question of the 1000 properties are just all over the US requiring a fixed ledger or a combination of retail and manufacturing.

We outsource ours to local firms depending on the locality, but we have limited sites. Data is all standardized and evaluations on assets are done every two years.

I personally am not a fan of Ryan. For property tax, I’d cast a wider net for providers.

Again, with 1000 properties, I assume it’s all retail. A provider should just pull the ledger and plug it into their software. One thing to consider is how much they automate. What’s your threshold for review? How much hand holding do you need to do. Sometimes if it’s too much hand holding, you just get irked and end up doing it yourself.

If you are issuing an RFP, I would also be interested in discussing with you. Thanks

If you are thinking of an RFP I'd be interested. Chat me if you are able to.

In my experience the best are the ones who only get paid if they successfully save you money. Usually a % of total savings. Keeps incentives aligned

Am I understanding utilization rate correctly? It’s chargeable time over total time? Charged 40 hours and had 10 hours non-charge so my utilization is 80%? If so, wouldn’t it benefit me to understate non-charge hours so my utilization is higher since they only really care about chargeable time anyways? Charge 40 hours still but only put 5 hours non-charge for utilization to be 89% instead of 80%? Or am I misunderstanding how utilization works?

Why do leaders keep comparing how “good”the new staff/seniors have it because they make more money starting out then they did and working 55 hours is better than the 70-80 hours they used to work? Instead they should compare what options they have available to them and what their goals are.
