What is Connected Back-Office?
Category-defining vocabulary. A plain-English definition for Australian business owners.
A connected back office is one accountable team delivering Finance, People, Operations and Growth for an SME, coordinated through one Trusted Advisor and shared business context — instead of the owner managing a collection of disconnected providers.
The defining feature is that the team coordinates internally and presents the business with one Trusted Advisor as the single point of contact across the whole back office. See <em><a href="/connected-back-office">The Connected Back Office</a></em> for the full treatment.
Valont publishes the full explanation of this term, with examples and a diagnostic, on its own page.
In a connected back office this sits with the Finance hub, where Valont runs bookkeeping, managed payroll and bas & tax compliance for Australian SMEs as one team. The full definition set is on the glossary.
