Digitizing the Business Cash Cycle: Advancements and Partnerships

In a new research report, Digitizing the Business Cash Cycle: Advancements and Partnerships, Mercator Advisory Group discusses the latest technology solutions supporting the procure-to-pay space and methods for connecting the various tools continually being added. Procurement, e-invoicing, payments, and alternative financing are being digitized and integrated for optimal performance in managing working capital. The report explains why this is a critical need as companies move further into the era of a high-tech, global economy.

"As we have consistently advised during the past years, effective working capital management is a key to financial performance and company decision flexibility moving forward. This holds true in both slow-growth developed economies as well as developing economies, where high growth can mask control issues that are later uncovered as industries and systems mature,” commented Steve Murphy, Director of Mercator Advisory Group’s Commercial and Enterprise Payments Advisory Service and author of the report. “Industry-leading solution-providers are recognizing that providing a product with end-to-end capabilities requiring fewer client company resources to launch and support can increase customer stickiness.”

The report is 16 pages long and contains 7 exhibits.
