We treat our clients’ businesses as our own. - Focus on Core Activities : The growth of a company also expands the back-office operations. It consumes the human and financial resources at the expense of the business purpose. Neither the core activity nor the back-office should be sacrificed. Outsourcing the administrative and organizational part means refocusing on the business while ensuring a high quality in the supporting function. - Cost Effectiveness : • Staffing : Recruitment, agency fees, salaries, taxes, insurance, benefits etc.,… as well as coffee breaks and other distractions are at the charge of an employer. VAW Services only bills and gets paid for the worked hours. • Office space and equipment : We work from our own office and use our own equipment. No workspace rental or hardware and furniture purchase are incurred. • Indirect expenses : No additional cost such as electricity or water is at the clients’ charge. • Flexibility : Seasonality in business is not easily manageable.
