Frequently Asked Questions

CLIENTS

Do you provide any other financial services besides Accounts Payable?
 
Yes, besides the company purchase ledger we can do Accounts Receivable / Credit Control as well as the Purchase-2-Process for you. For smaller companies we can also provide accountancy & bookkeeping assistance. 

Are rates negotiable? 
Yes, depending on your requirements. 

Where do you provide your services? 
Lion Contracting Services Ltd. currently provides support in Gloucestershire and surrounding counties when onsite/hybrid presence is required.
We are able to cover the UK when working remotely.

How soon can you deliver your services? 
We are fairly flexible and will always aim to meet your requirements. 

Can we just buy automated AP software to solve our problem?
Artificial Intelligence and automation doesn't resolve every issue in AP. First of all, you would need people to implement, use, verify, monitor and maintain different aspects of the automation. Besides that, while there is very good automation out there, no OCR (Optical Character Recognition) and processing software is completely infallible, especially when it comes to complex queries.

Can you provide an all-in-one AP solution? 
We have good connections with AP software processing providers and can objectively consult on implementing solutions to fit your needs. 

What software do you use?
- Standalone: Xero HQ
- Cloud-based integration with your ERP solution (Enterprise Resource Planning)
- or VPN connection to your system, setup as one of your users

Do you provide investment services? 
No. We are not FSA registered and don't provide investment advice. 

Can I invest in your company? 
Please contact us to discuss.
