Under the leadership of Sirish Korada, Managing Director & CEO, BINDZ Consulting is setting new benchmarks in financial consulting by leveraging India’s vast talent pool, cutting-edge technology, and a unique Build-Operate-Transfer (BOT) model. As a wholly owned subsidiary of SAPRO, BINDZ operates with a singular focus on delivering tailored, high-quality services to its key client, CBIZ—one of the largest U.S.-based financial services and CPA firms.
With operations headquartered in Bangalore, the company is perfectly poised to integrate global standards with local expertise, offering unparalleled service and driving innovation in the industry.
1. How does BINDZ’s Build-Operate-Transfer (BOT) model enhance the client experience in comparison to traditional offshoring models, particularly in terms of quality and efficiency?
The Build-Operate-Transfer (BOT) model at BINDZ significantly enhances the client experience by offering a highly customized, hands-on approach that traditional offshoring models often fail to deliver. Unlike typical offshoring models where the relationship with offshore teams can feel distant, the BOT model allows BINDZ to establish tailored operational setups for each client. We handle operations efficiently and ensure a smooth transition when the processes are ready to be taken over by the client. This direct engagement ensures high-quality, precise, and timely financial consulting, allowing clients to experience a seamless entry into India’s talent-rich ecosystem with no compromise on performance.
2. With a singular focus on serving a key client, how does BINDZ Consulting ensure that its services are consistently aligned with the client’s evolving needs and strategic goals?
At BINDZ, our focus is entirely on serving CBIZ, the seventh-largest U.S.-based Financial Services and CPA firm. We ensure that our services remain aligned with CBIZ’s evolving needs by fostering a close, collaborative relationship. By continuously engaging with CBIZ and adapting to their changing strategic goals, we tailor our solutions to meet their specific requirements. This dedicated approach enables us to consistently deliver customized, high-quality services that help CBIZ achieve its business objectives while maintaining flexibility as their needs evolve over time. In Fact the business model adopted by Sapro, our parent company is to setup dedicated LEs for its clients like CBIZ that are willing to leverage our capabilities, delivery expertise with our unique delivery framework and India’s skilled talent landscape.
3. As a fully owned subsidiary of SAPRO, how does BINDZ Consulting align with SAPRO’s overarching vision and values while maintaining its operational independence?
As a wholly owned subsidiary of SAPRO, BINDZ aligns with SAPRO’s broader vision by adopting its core values of innovation, quality, and customer-centricity. While BINDZ maintains operational independence, we share SAPRO’s commitment to delivering tailored consulting solutions that cater to clients’ specific needs. This relationship allows BINDZ to remain agile, leveraging SAPRO’s resources and expertise while ensuring that our operations are streamlined to deliver specialized financial services. Our autonomy enables us to focus on the unique needs of our clients, particularly CBIZ, while still benefiting from SAPRO’s strategic oversight and global outlook.
4. What innovative practices or technologies has BINDZ Consulting implemented to maintain its position as a provider of top-tier services in the industry?
BINDZ embraces innovation through the integration of advanced technologies in our services, particularly in tax and audit operations and other financial services. We leverage tools such as SurePrep OCR, SAGE Fixed Asset Software, and CCH Axcess, which automate tasks like depreciation calculations, tax filing, and reconciliations. Additionally, we are developing an AI-based tool to automate individual tax returns and low-complexity accounting tasks. This focus on automation not only enhances efficiency and accuracy but also ensures that we stay ahead of the curve in delivering high-quality, tech-driven financial consulting services.
5. Operating from Bangalore, known as India’s tech hub, how does BINDZ Consulting leverage the region’s talent pool to foster expertise and excellence in service delivery?
Bangalore, often regarded as India’s Silicon Valley, offers a highly skilled workforce and a robust educational ecosystem, making it an ideal location for BINDZ to operate. By tapping into the region’s talent pool, we foster a culture of excellence and continuous learning. The city’s tech environment allows us to integrate advanced technologies into our services, ensuring that we remain competitive in delivering specialized financial consulting. This access to top-tier talent enables BINDZ to maintain a high standard of service delivery, meeting the complex needs of clients like CBIZ while positioning ourselves as a leader in the consulting industry.
6. What are BINDZ Consulting’s long-term goals, and how does the company plan to expand its capabilities to meet the dynamic demands of its client and the industry at large?
BINDZ is committed to continuous growth and innovation. In the long term, we aim to support our client CBIZ with end to end financial services operation from BINDZ including tax and advisory, insurance, technology, and corporate functions. Our focus remains on delivering specialized, high-quality services to CBIZ, while exploring opportunities to replicate our BOT model with other clients globally. We are also looking to expand our footprint across multiple cities in India, leveraging regional talent pools to ensure resilience and efficiency in service delivery. This strategy will help us meet the growing demands of the financial services industry while maintaining our commitment to quality and client satisfaction.
