Procure-to-Pay
The priorities for an efficient Procure-To-Pay process and organization are manifold:
organizational efficiency, digitalization and automation, data management (volume, quality, use and KPIs, etc.),AI opportunities (new uses, prediction, etc.), regulatory compliance, cost control and cash optimization, supplier relations and improved collaboration, fraud reduction, environmental impactmanagement and social responsibility.
These challenges can be approached from two angles .
- For the finance department : expense management, reliability, productivity, control and reduction of payment times, tax compliance, management of the risk of payment fraud/false invoicing.
- For the purchasing department : centralization of purchasing, better visibility and analysis of expenditure for optimized negotiation, increased confidence and transparency in supplier relations, reduction of the carbon footprint of purchasing…
These challenges need to be addressed using innovative technological solutions and an “ employee & process centric ” approachto improve operational efficiency, reduce costs, and strengthen the company’s financial resilience.
“The challenges of the Procure-To-Pay process are numerous and involve increasingly close collaboration between the finance and purchasing departments, bringing into play various stakeholders: the operational, CSR, IT departments and the company’s suppliers”.
