We are delighted to announce and welcome Purchase to Pay Network to SSF UK Collaboration Week with their session entitled "Finance and Procurement: A Match Made in Lockdown”
The events of the last few years have made many re-assess their digitisation projects and their internal processes. Where once the separate areas of finance, accounts payable, treasury and procurement existed in their own silos, forward-thinking organisations are looking at ways to connect. While at their core, procurement and finance functions differ, their processes intersect at many different points. And to achieve the best performance and business outcomes, it’s increasingly essential that procurement and finance teams work together in collaboration. But what are the benefits of doing so? And how do companies start down this route?
Join Ellen Leith, Editor & Director at Purchase to Pay Network, Dave Jones MCIPS a former procurement leader at John Lewis & Partners and expert Procurement thought leader and Shared Services Forum UK Limited Leader and Finance Shared Services Director at Kier Group, Dan Foley as they discuss the pitfalls, benefits, long and short-term strategies to lead organisations on the path to better process and connectivity.
