DNA is a Xero Platinum Partner that takes a cloud-first, people-focused approach to accounting. Their team supports a wide range of offshore businesses and relies on a modern app stack to deliver efficient, sustainable, and client-friendly services. Payroll is a core part of their operations, and they needed a solution that could keep pace with both client expectations and local regulatory change.
“It’s a pleasure to work with an online solution that actively engages with its users, continuously improving its functionality and introducing new features that meet the evolving needs of businesses.”
The challenge
Payroll in offshore jurisdictions can be complex and time-consuming, especially when regulations shift or when supporting clients who run their own payroll in-house. DNA needed a system that could simplify compliance, reduce manual work, and integrate smoothly into their existing workflow. The introduction of Guernsey secondary pensions increased the need for a partner who could adapt quickly and work closely with regulators to deliver compliant, easy-to-use functionality.
The solution
Ocerli became a key component of DNA’s tech ecosystem. Its cloud-based automation streamlined everyday payroll processing and removed the need for workaround-heavy tools. The platform provided quick and accurate government submissions, easy updates, and a user-friendly experience for both DNA and their clients. Ocerli’s team worked proactively with government and pension providers to roll out secondary pension support, ensuring DNA could offer a smooth and compliant experience across its client base. Continuous product improvements and responsive support reinforced the strength of the partnership.
The impact
Integrating Ocerli enabled DNA to deliver faster, more accurate payroll and offer a more modern, automated service. Their strengthened app stack contributed to recognition at the Xero Awards and the Accounting Excellence Awards in 2024, where DNA became finalists in the Mid-Size Firm category. The platform helped reduce risk, improve sustainability, and enhance the experience for both DNA’s staff and clients.
