[Editor’s Note: Ardent Partners’ new webinar, Maximizing Spend Management with AP Automation and Data, is scheduled for this Thursday, April 9th. Click here to register.]
Ardent Partners research has shown that the benefits of Accounts Payable (“AP”) automation and data can extend well beyond process and efficiency improvements gained from eliminating paper and manual, labor-intensive tasks. Accounts Payable departments that take an active role in spend management drive more business value to their organizations and are more respected overall.
Both procurement and finance professionals alike have made the realization that a business environment that values cash, profit margins, and risk mitigation is one that plays to the primary skills and capabilities of the organization. The impact and advantage of a top-performing operation can be extraordinary, and it is clear that optimizing enterprise spend is a business imperative. Now more than ever, collaboration between AP and procurement is needed in order to maximize spend management. It is incumbent upon these groups to support each other in the pursuit of these strategies, and then collaborate on the definition and measurement of the results.
Join Ardent Partners and special guest, Esker, on a webinar focused on the key strategies used by Best-in-Class organizations to track spend, improve supplier management, increase compliance and convert AP data into real value. Attendees of this webinar will learn how to:
- Identify and track savings opportunities
- Improve cash flow and working capital management
- Gain insights into how to turn data into actionable intelligence
- Increase spend compliance and reduce fraud
- Improve supplier management
- Build smarter AP, P2P, and procurement teams
