How to Empower Your Business in the New World of Work

Thanks to the COVID-19 pandemic response, uncertainty is the new status quo. Even as we start to put the short-term effects of recent events in the rear-view mirror, the long-term effects have accelerated the need for businesses of all sizes to digitize and automate their finance operations. 

 

We now live in a new world of work where some of the ways of doing things no longer suffice. More people are working from home than ever. Expense accounts must be limited by compliance rules and fiscal reality. Process efficiency is more important than ever so busy employees can focus on their strategic work.

 

Another example: You now have to be able to manage all your spending equally. So even if you’ve transformed one aspect of your company spend digitally, like managing expense reports, manual siloed processes across other spend types are still costing you time and money.

 

With workforces becoming more remote and driving more spend without direct oversight, you need every advantage to gain control and insight over spend so you can make the most out of your cash flow. The more finance and IT can work together, the more they can help drive your entire organization forward with more intelligent decisions. 

 

82% of businesses with five–1,000 employees agreed their organization identified new gaps in cash flow management tools and processes as a result of COVID-19
