      Our experience with FAS as a support partner for the implementation of the Xero accounting system and SimplePay payroll has been extremely positive. My expectations were exceeded and I endorse FAS without reservation. Our project was successful – having completed the plan within agreed timeframes and within budget. The support from FAS throughout the project was invaluable – from Rowan’s well considered and thorough advice, to Leona’s attention to detail coupled with empathy and warmth; complemented by the accuracy of their capturing team. I particularly appreciated the clear and regular feedback and detailed project management documents which provided comfort to our exco team. FAS personify the word “team” and we are extremely grateful for their service to our organization.
