18/10/2010

The key to successful financial management for any organisation is a recession or downturn in the economy is to manage wisely.

This need good management information systems and one area that has traditionally been neglected is control over purchases, payments and managing costs wisely. An integrated Purchase-to-Pay solution can provide visibility throughout the financial value chain,enabling better management information for forecasting cash flow, leveraging buying power and delaying with the better suppliers.

So to do well in difficult times it is worth investing strategically in systems to help you make the right decisions.

There are also costs savings to purchase to pay systems, but it is worth looking at these systems as a source of benefit in their own right as well.

The types of strategic decisions these solutions help with include:

  • where can savings be made which will not impact product or service quality
  • which suppliers give the best contracts
  • can we renegotiate some contracts
  • are volume discounts available

The key to being able to make these decisions is the better financial management information provided by the purchase to pay solution.

Companies such as DCS (Data Capture Solutions) in the UK are at the forefront  of implementing enterprise purchase to pay solutions within an  organisation. These are either provided as cloud based solutions, as SaaS (Software as as Service) or can be implemented in house and integrated with existing financial software such as Sage.
