About AFSS

In 2010, AFSS developed an accounting software solution for the clients of PMCT Accountants & Consultants (PMCT). The solution was further improved and branded as Absolute Accountancy (AA), offering features for bookkeeping, payroll management, and financial accounts. In collaboration with PMCT, AFSS also developed a Basel Accord Standards and Compliance solution tailored for banks, particularly in emerging markets. From 2012 to 2018, AFSS expanded its offerings by developing 10 additional modules for various industries. Currently, AFSS operates from London and Accra (Ghana), serving African countries and emerging markets.

AFSS Limited was founded in July 2008 by Vincent Santeng with a team of consultants, business analysts, and software developers. Initially, the company operated as a consulting firm, developing customised software solutions for banks and financial firms upon request. After the completion of various projects, Vincent Santeng continued to run AFSS as a proprietary software house and consulting firm from April 2009 onward.

Our Team

The AFSS team comprises software developers, consultants, business analysts, software testers, and trainers. We assign dedicated project teams to each implementation, led by a consultant or account manager, to ensure client-specific requirements are met. Post-implementation reviews are conducted to ensure ongoing client satisfaction. We are committed to expanding and enhancing our team to better serve our clients.

Our Mission Meaning

Our goal is to provide every client with an exceptional experience, offering reliable and user-friendly software solutions that ensure data auditability. We prioritise data quality and integrity as core values, meeting our clients' expectations. Our mission is to continuously improve upon our implemented solutions and strive to be the best in the industry.

We have a defined scope for our proprietary software products, represented as 'DONE'. However, we are adaptable to clients' requirements and are willing to accommodate them as enhancements. Any new enhancements during implementation are referred to as 'DOING'. We recognise that business requirements and practices evolve, and we anticipate and consider future needs as part of our 'TO DO' enhancements.

Our Promise

Our commitment to our clients' success is a driving force, symbolised by a special tradition. When we make a promise to a client, we physically lock a padlock to signify our unwavering dedication to delivering quality service on time. We are passionate about receiving positive feedback and recommendations from our clients. Remarkably, we have never advertised our modules, yet we consistently expand into new markets and attract new clients solely through referrals from satisfied clients and users.

Implementation Options

AFSS offers mobile versions of its solutions that can be accessed by users anytime, anywhere. There are three implementation options:

  • Self-Hosted: The client hosts the AFSS solutions on their server and manages them, with online support from us.

  • Cloud-Based: We provide the server for the client's use, allowing them to access the solutions remotely.

  • Managed Cloud-Based: We take full responsibility for managing the solutions in the cloud, providing a comprehensive service to the client.
