Ligo Regnskap | The Accounting Firm Running on Autopilot

When Ligo Regnskap decided to embrace comprehensive automation, they weren't just looking for better software—they were reimagining how a modern accounting firm should operate. With over 130 active clients and a commitment to staying ahead of technological advances, this Norwegian firm has transformed into what could be called an "accounting office on autopilot."

Seamless Integration: Complete Control Through Automation

The foundation of Ligo Regnskap's success lies in their seamless integration approach. Through a sophisticated connection with Easy At Work, Ligo receives time data and employee information directly into their payroll system. The bureau solution in 24SevenOffice provides payroll administrators with complete control over all clients in one centralized location, while enabling automatic payroll processing and validation within a fully integrated solution.

This integration creates an efficient data flow throughout their operations: time tracked flows seamlessly into payroll calculations, which then feeds into client invoicing and reporting—all without manual intervention or data re-entry.

Transformation Results: From Manual to Automated Excellence

The transition to 24Payroll and the comprehensive bureau solution has delivered measurable improvements across Ligo Regnskap's operations. The firm has successfully consolidated all payroll process steps into one unified system, eliminating the inefficiencies and errors that come with managing multiple platforms.

Perhaps most importantly, they've replaced manual control systems with automated oversight through the bureau solution. This provides real-time monitoring, automatic validation capabilities, and built-in error detection—ensuring accuracy while dramatically reducing the time spent on quality control.

The smooth transitions between all parties involved in payroll processing have transformed their client relationships. Communication now happens directly within the system, eliminating the need for external channels like email or phone calls for routine payroll matters. This centralized approach creates a complete audit trail and ensures nothing falls through the cracks.

Enhanced Client Dialogue Through Better Control

With 24Payroll and the bureau solution, Ligo Regnskap has significantly reduced manual work while gaining complete oversight of all payroll assignments. This enhanced control makes it easier to maintain quality and accuracy even when operating at high pace—a crucial capability given their substantial client portfolio.

The results speak for themselves: payroll distributions now happen faster and with higher precision, while client dialogue has become more efficient and proactive. For Ligo's employees, the transformation has led to higher job satisfaction, as their work environment has become more organized, predictable, and manageable.

Leading Through Digital Innovation

Ligo Regnskap's commitment to automation extends beyond payroll. The firm has implemented electronic invoicing (EHF) for all 130 clients, positioning themselves as leaders in digital transformation within the Norwegian accounting industry.

"EHF will help us deliver updated accounting earlier, so our clients can use the numbers as decision-making tools at an earlier stage," explains Eikeland. "Other important benefits include largely eliminating the risk of manual errors in invoice handling and ensuring clients avoid misdirected invoices that we occasionally experience with regular mail."

This digital-first approach has required internal restructuring as well. The firm has reorganized their workflows, creating specialized teams that focus exclusively on incoming invoices to ensure a smooth and efficient processing flow.

Client Success and Satisfaction

The transformation's success is perhaps best measured through client feedback. Next Systems AS in Stavanger notes: "We are very satisfied with Ligo Regnskap. The tools in the 24SevenOffice program are easy to use and we have excellent daily oversight. Digitization of invoices and electronic approval of travel expenses save us a lot of time."

Preben Gulliksen, Managing Director of several Pizzabakeren franchises, adds: "At Ligo Regnskap, we have all the expertise we need in daily operations. We meet friendly, organized people who are always ready to help."

These testimonials reflect how Ligo's technology investments have enhanced, rather than replaced, the personal service that clients value.

The Strategic Advantage of Integration

What sets Ligo Regnskap apart is their holistic approach to automation. Rather than implementing isolated solutions, they've created a fully integrated ecosystem where every component works together seamlessly. This approach delivers:

• Automated data flow from initial time tracking through final client reporting
• Significant error reduction through automated validations and built-in quality controls
• Scalable operations that efficiently handle 130+ clients with capacity for growth
• Enhanced client value through faster, more accurate service delivery with better insights

For Ligo Regnskap, this integration has proven that the right technology doesn't just improve efficiency, it enables an entirely new level of service quality and client satisfaction.

Setting the Standard for Modern Practice

As the accounting industry continues to evolve, Ligo Regnskap's transformation into an "accounting office on autopilot" demonstrates how strategic technology adoption can enhance both operational efficiency and client relationships. Their success shows that automation, when implemented thoughtfully, doesn't diminish the human element of accounting services, it amplifies it by freeing professionals to focus on higher-value advisory work and stronger client relationships.

For accounting firms looking to future-proof their operations, Ligo Regnskap's journey offers a compelling blueprint for success in an increasingly digital world.
