Process optimization starts with preceding processes

Let us take account payables. Where does the input come from and what output is expected? For the input I look into processes like procurement, invoice verification, tax declarations, travel management or payroll.

How do you ensure that payments are made at due dates? What is the percentage of rapid money transfers? Do you make use of cash discounts? How many returned payments do you have on average? How is the internal approval process organised in your company?

Although you can influence the payments of accounts payables by invoicing them yourself, securing your incoming payments at due dates will continue to pose a challenge. Do you use external service providers for debt management?

You gain from using all possibilities to optimize processes
