Summary: According to industry experts, a typical one billion dollar company spends approximately 27 million on unnecessary working capital and inefficient processing functions because they lack visibility into the financial supply chain. Optimizing Back Office Operations: Best Practices to Maximize Profitability uses examples and case studies to show how cost optimization-and not cost reduction-in the core back office operations is the right approach to maximizing profitability and enterprise value. Implementation guidance is provided for Executives, CFOs, and Controllers on transitioning from outdated processes to a fully-optimized financial supply chain.Summary: Optimizing Back-Office Operations: Best Practices to Maximize Profitability -- Contents -- Preface -- Chapter 1: Profits: The Reason a Business Exists -- Profitability Defined -- Profitability Equation and Related Metrics -- Liquidity, Growth, and Financial Flexibility -- Case Study -- Conclusion -- Notes -- Chapter 2: Cost and Capability: Strategic Choices -- Capability: One Size Does Not Fit All -- Cost: You Get What You Pay For -- Measuring Capability -- Case Study -- Conclusion -- Notes -- Chapter 3: Financial Supply Chain: Entering the Gold Mine -- What Is the Financial Supply Chain? -- Working Capital Defined -- Working Capital Processes -- Case Study -- Conclusion -- Notes -- Chapter 4: Platform for Execution: A System for Maximizing Profits -- Process Benchmarking -- Process Optimization -- Process Automation -- Process Integration -- Process Standardization -- Case Study -- Conclusion -- Note -- Chapter 5: Optimizing Accounts Payable -- Implications of A/P Effectiveness -- Best Practices -- Enabling Technologies -- Case Study -- Conclusion -- Note -- Chapter 6: Optimizing Accounts Receivable -- Implications of A/R Effectiveness -- Best Practices -- Enabling Technologies -- Case Study -- Conclusion -- Chapter 7: Optimizing Purchasing -- Implications of Purchasing Effectiveness -- Best Practices -- Enabling Technologies -- Case Study -- Conclusion -- Note -- Chapter 8: Optimizing Treasury Operations -- Implications of Treasury Effectiveness -- Best Practices -- Enabling Technologies -- Case Study -- Conclusion -- Epilogue -- Index.PPN: PPN: 807306487Package identifier: Produktsigel: ZDB-26-MYL | ZDB-30-PAD | ZDB-30-PBE | ZDB-30-PQE
