    We are proud to share that EY was profiled by TBR Inc. in a recent special report titled “Complexity and Trust: EY Confident Supply Chain Sustainability Will Change World”, published in May 2022.

The report highlights that “EY’s technology integrations appeared to be a seamless component of solving a client’s problem, rather than an attempt to shoehorn technology into an engagement to sell a solution” and that “EY’s ability to bring regulatory expertise, particularly around tax issues, consistently elevated the firm’s value with clients.”

    TBR’s favorable assessment of EY’s potential hinges in large part on EY’s track record for layering both trust and data into the firm’s consulting and technology solutions.

    EY’s Managed Services profiled by IDC

    We are extremely proud to share that EY was profiled by IDC in their special report titled ‘IDC Link: EY Moving Managed Services Into the Spotlight’, published June 2022.

    IDC came away from the analyst day knowing that EY's managed service is a unified approach for supporting clients within areas of buyer businesses that EY leverages beyond cost savings for added buyer advantage. EY's modular design allows their clients to sign up with as much or little of their sources as needed. EY is not constrained in their ability to capture enough talent across compliance, tax, audit, and risk to meet their growth demands due to their practice of hiring the best talent from the departments that EY is tasked to manage.

    While traditional BPO providers can manage and support the outsourcing of lower end activities (i.e., journal entries, reconciliations, and lease accounting) with hundreds of FTE's, EY's core differentiation comes with their depth of domain knowledge and expertise/skilled resources in areas such as tax, financial/non-financial (ESG) reporting, compliance, and specialized finance (treasury and controllership).

    IDC has seen a move towards managed services as the next step in the push to make ESG "business as usual" in today's market. EY takes a similar stance as they continue to develop their "one stop shop" managed service for organization wide ESG measurement and reporting. As per the report, with the largest globally integrated sustainability practice in the world, IDC expects to see EY's sustainability managed service continue to add to its capabilities, use-cases, and client base in the coming months.
