JPS-iQ Solutions Group BPO Platform-Embedded Managed Service

Finance, Controlling and Operations — delivered on your platform, not beside it.

BPO by JPS-iQ is a platform-embedded managed service. Finance & Accounting, Controlling & Steering and Operations Back-Office are run inside your ERP and inside your operating architecture — no parallel systems, no data silos, no reconciliation overhead.

What BPO does

Four operating principles that separate real BPO from generic outsourcing.

BPO by JPS-iQ is defined less by what we take over and more by how we run it: operationally, on your platform, under SLAs — and under continuous improvement, not static execution.

01 · Operate

Operational process execution

We run the operational backbone — not advise on it. Finance, Order-to-Cash, Procure-to-Pay, back-office processes executed end-to-end as a service.

e.g. Finance & Accounting · Order-to-Cash · Back-office
02 · Platform

Platform-anchored delivery

All work happens inside your ERP and tooling — no parallel systems, no shadow spreadsheets, no reconciliation tax between BPO tools and your numbers.

e.g. NetSuite · Dynamics 365 · Business Central · Zoho · Xentral
03 · Improve

Continuous optimization

Steady-state execution is the baseline, not the goal. Every cycle feeds process improvement, automation and cleaner controls — not just more of the same.

e.g. cycle-time reduction · control automation · workflow redesign
04 · Accountability

Output-oriented ownership

We take accountability, not activity. Engagements are governed by clear SLAs, measurable outputs and explicit ownership boundaries — not by headcount rented by the hour.

e.g. defined SLAs · KPI reporting · clean handover boundaries
Service scope

Three service domains. One platform-embedded delivery model.

The BPO Business Unit runs the three operating domains closest to the numbers: Finance & Accounting at the core, Controlling & Steering on top, Operations Back-Office around them — all inside the same ERP and the same finance architecture.

01

Finance & Accounting

Books, close, reporting, accounts receivable, accounts payable, intercompany and statutory compliance — the finance backbone run as a managed service inside your ERP.

02

Controlling & Steering

Management reporting, KPI discipline, planning, forecasting and board-level steering support — close to the CFO office, close to the operating reality.

03

Operations Back-Office

Order management, procurement, inventory flow and operational back-office processes — run directly inside the ERP instead of in parallel tools.

Platform-Embedded

No parallel systems. No reconciliation overhead. No data silos.

Classical BPO often builds a second organization beside yours — with its own tools, its own spreadsheets, its own version of the numbers. We do the opposite. BPO by JPS-iQ runs directly inside your ERP, your reporting model and your finance architecture. The service is embedded, not attached.

  • All work happens inside your NetSuite, Dynamics 365, Business Central, Zoho or Xentral instance
  • One finance architecture across implementation, operations and reporting
  • Natural bridge to the group's platform Business Units — NetSuite, Microsoft, Zoho, Xentral
  • Clean handover in both directions: operations to BPO, and BPO back to internal teams
1 platform Your ERP is the system of record — no parallel BPO stack.
3 domains Finance · Controlling · Operations — run under one service model.
0 silos No shadow spreadsheets, no reconciliation between BPO and ERP.
∞ continuity Bridge between implementation, operations and recovery inside the group.
Capabilities

What the service actually covers, across finance, controlling and operations.

A platform-embedded BPO engagement is not a fixed package. It is a defined set of capabilities that can be combined around the client's operating reality — the right scope, the right depth, the right level of ownership.

Every engagement is anchored in the same finance architecture and the same ERP platform. That is what keeps the numbers clean, the reporting consistent and the handover boundaries sharp over time.

  • 01

    Accounts payable & accounts receivable

    Invoice processing, vendor management, customer invoicing, collections and dunning — inside the ERP.

  • 02

    General ledger, close & reporting

    GL operations, monthly and yearly close, statutory reporting and group reporting consistency.

  • 03

    Intercompany, tax & compliance

    Intercompany accounting, VAT and tax filings, statutory compliance across entities and countries.

  • 04

    Management reporting & KPIs

    Board packs, KPI discipline, profitability analysis, segment reporting and CFO-office support.

  • 05

    Planning & forecasting

    Budgeting, rolling forecasts, scenario modeling and operational planning aligned with the ERP.

  • Operations back-office

    Order management, procurement, inventory flow and exception handling — executed inside the ERP.

Method

Onboard. Run. Steer. Evolve. A disciplined BPO lifecycle.

Every BPO engagement runs through a defined four-step lifecycle. Clear transitions, clear ownership, clear service boundaries — so the work becomes predictable instead of accumulating risk.

01 — Onboard

Scope & transition

Define scope, service boundaries, process ownership, integration points and the first operating cadence.

02 — Run

Steady-state operations

Day-to-day execution of finance, controlling and operations inside the ERP, under a clear service model.

03 — Steer

Reporting & discipline

Management reporting, KPI discipline, escalation path and continuous service quality management.

04 — Evolve

Scale & transfer

Scope extensions, new entities, new capabilities and controlled transfer back to internal teams when the time is right.

Industries

Four sector profiles where a platform-embedded BPO model pays back.

The BPO model fits best where finance discipline, operational volume and ERP complexity meet — and where a clean, architecture-aware service beats a generic outsourcing shop.

SW

Software & SaaS

Subscription and revenue discipline, investor-grade reporting, multi-entity finance and clean close cycles at scale.

PS

Professional Services

Project billing, resource economics, profitability, period recognition and management reporting in delivery-led organizations.

PRD

Product & Distribution

Order-to-cash, procure-to-pay, inventory flow and operational back-office depth for product-driven businesses.

INT

International & Multi-Entity

Multi-country finance, statutory coordination, intercompany and consolidation across regions.

Differentiation

What separates platform-embedded BPO from classical outsourcing.

No parallel organization

We don't build a second company beside yours with its own tools and spreadsheets. The ERP stays the system of record — always.

No reconciliation tax

No permanent reconciliation between BPO tools and your numbers. One architecture, one source of truth, one version of the operating reality.

No lock-in pricing

Clean service boundaries and a documented transfer model. The work is built to be given back to internal teams when that is the right move.

Business Unit leadership

BPO led by the operator, not by a sales function.

BPO by JPS-iQ is run out of Tech IQ Business Consulting GmbH — the same entity that operates the OPCON Execution & Enablement Business Unit. The Business Unit is led directly by the group founder, under group-COO oversight, with the managing director of the entity on the operational side and a dedicated Finance-BPO lead.

Real BPO is not a second organization beside your platform. It runs inside the ERP, under clear SLAs, close to the finance architecture and close to the operating reality — and it gets measurably better every cycle. That is the discipline I personally stand behind in every BPO engagement we take on.

Group COO

Jennifer Ruiz

Group Chief Operating Officer

JPS-iQ Solutions Group

Operational excellence is not promised in the proposal — it is delivered in the lifecycle. Across the group's Business Units, the Group-COO role is about making sure transition, steady-state, reporting and transfer come out of the same operating spine. That is what keeps our BPO model sustainable.

Finance BPO Lead

Finance BPO is not an accountant-for-hire service. It means running books, close and reporting directly inside the client's ERP — with the same discipline an internal finance team would apply, just scalable and multi-entity-capable.

Managing Director

Walter Meyer

Managing Director · COO Consulting Business Unit

Tech IQ Business Consulting GmbH · JPS-iQ Solutions Group

Platform-embedded BPO only works if the operating model is disciplined end-to-end — scoping, transition, steady-state, reporting and transfer. That operational backbone is where we keep the service clean and the handover boundaries sharp.
