Are you managing costs of routine but critical tasks?
There is no doubt that you’ve had to, and that you still have to manage your spending for all processes in your company. At the very least you’d have to spend on the following on a daily or weekly basis:
These functions don’t generate revenue, and so they can kill profitability if their costs are not managed. The following are examples of cost drivers:
Outsource These Functions
Outsourcing means hiring another company to perform the tasks for you. In return, you only pay a service fee periodically. The amount would partly be based on the number of headcounts used to serve you.
However, outsourcing firms serve multiple clients at any given time, and, therefore, unused headcounts can simply be shifted to serve other clients. Therefore, if the workload to serve you falls, they’ll just shift their headcounts to other clients, and, thus, you’ll be billed just for actual headcounts used to serve you.
Getting the same level of service and competent as you might if you’d hired your own capable but expensive in-house staff, outsourcing presents a great way for you to manage your cost.

Frequently Asked Questions
How are service levels managed?
Every transaction is contracted verbally or in writing. For our service, we have written service level agreements (SLA). It stipulates the range of service level that you expect from us, and the our fees for those services. It also spells other covenants, even those relating to business disaster, such as the deadline by which you may expect us to resume operations as well as procedures on what to do in such events.
What guarantees and protections do I get from data theft or errors?
SLAs guides us, even when it comes to data protection. It spells out what we may and may not do with your data. Furthermore, we’re subjected to Malaysia laws, under which, we must abide by the Personal Data Protection Act 2010 that forbids us from sharing any personal data with third-party without permission from the person, with exception of requests from Malaysian law enforcement bodies in support of their investigations. Hence, the SLA and the Law mandates us to protect your data to the best of our abilities.
Furthermore, we limit access to our operations to relevant personnel only. Therefore, even employees of Cheng & Co that aren’t involved in service provision to you have no access to your data. Lastly, we do have technology controls in place such as passwords-only access to our system and audit trails for everything done to your data, which records the person to doing it.
