Milestones
Key milestones in our journey — from our first client in 2006 to opening offices in Ireland and Australia, crossing 100+ clients, launching our ERP practice, and building our digital transformation capabilities.
Milestones
LaabamOne's milestone timeline reads like a masterclass in disciplined, client-driven growth. In 2006, we signed our first client — a mid-sized manufacturing company in Tamil Nadu that needed reliable bookkeeping and tax compliance support. That single engagement validated our founding thesis: mid-market businesses were hungry for Big 4-quality services at fair prices. Within the first year, we had acquired fifteen more clients through referrals alone.
The period from 2008 to 2014 marked our diversification phase. We launched our ERP consulting practice in 2008 with SAP and Oracle capabilities, entered the IT services space in 2010 with software development and cloud migration offerings, and opened our first international office in Co Sligo, Ireland in 2012. Each milestone was a strategic response to client needs — our European clients wanted local presence, and our Indian clients wanted technology services from a firm they already trusted.
From 2015 onward, LaabamOne accelerated into digital transformation. We established our Melbourne, Australia office in 2015, crossed the 100-client mark in 2017, launched dedicated cyber security and AI/automation practices in 2019, and surpassed 191 clients by 2024. Each milestone reinforced our ability to scale without sacrificing the personal service and quality that defined our earliest days.
Key Highlights
These defining milestones chart LaabamOne's evolution from a local accounting firm to a global professional services company.
2006 — The Beginning
Founded in Madurai, Tamil Nadu with a focused mission to deliver Big 4-quality accounting and tax services at accessible India pricing for mid-market businesses.
2012 — European Expansion
Opened our Ireland office in Co Sligo, establishing a European presence to serve clients across the UK, Ireland, and the EU with local expertise and compliance knowledge.
2015 — Asia-Pacific Footprint
Launched our Melbourne, Australia office to serve the growing Asia-Pacific market and provide round-the-clock service coverage across three time zones.
2024 — 191+ Clients
Crossed the 191-client milestone spanning 7 industries, cementing our position as a trusted mid-market alternative to Big 4 and Tier 2 consultancies.
Milestones That Matter
At LaabamOne, we measure milestones not just in offices opened or revenue targets hit, but in the depth of impact we create for our clients. Our first SAP go-live in 2009 was as significant as opening our Ireland office, because it proved we could deliver enterprise-grade ERP implementations with Big 4 methodology and personal attention.
Looking ahead, our next milestones focus on deepening our AI and automation capabilities, expanding our cyber security practice, and reaching 300 clients by 2028 — all while maintaining the client intimacy and quality standards that have defined every milestone in our history.
