known issues

Where the time goes today

  1. Staff chase clients for the same missing documents every month and every tax season.

  2. Billable time goes unrecorded because file notes are written days later.

  3. First-pass document review uses senior time that clients will not pay for.

  4. Knowledge sits with a few senior people, so juniors wait for answers.
