Innovation? That's soooo old hat…<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

This new HfS report (<\/strong>click here to view<\/strong><\/a>) dives into the experiences and expectations of a selection of today\u2019s most experienced enterprise Finance and Accounting (F&A) BPO buyers, when it comes to achieving innovation.<\/strong><\/p>\n

We spoke to a collection of major F&A BPO customers which have achieved some form of innovation as they went through the F&A BPO experience with a major service provider. Here\u2019s what we cover:<\/p>\n

–\tWe look at Microsoft\u2019s BPO experience with Accenture, as the software giant leveraged a global BPO model to consolidate and transform multiple global finance and procurement operations.<\/p>\n

–\tThen we examine Cognizant\u2019s work with a major multi-billion dollar grocery retailer, which had doubled in size through an acquisition in June 2007 and needed to make its post-merger finance organization more effective.<\/p>\n

–\tWe investigate Genpact\u2019s endeavor with a global manufacturer to deliver process improvements to improve days to pay.<\/p>\n

–\tWe look into Wipro being called in after two multi-billion dollar retailers merged, to help consolidate and modernize the disparate financial operations.<\/p>\n

–\tWe examine how Infosys worked with McClatchy Newspapers to develop a custom application to manage advertising billing, accounts receivable, and scheduling of ads for newspapers.<\/p>\n

–\tWe take a look at how Vengroff Williams & Associates worked with a US manufacturer to improve its collections processes, which were previously held back by its technology.<\/p>\n

–\tAnd finally, we see how WNS worked with Ally Financial (formerly GMAC) to accomplish dynamic corporate objectives against a backdrop of economic peril.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
