Why settle with average when you can have extraordinary T&E?

If you’re like many business owners, you probably digitally transformed at least some of your business operations to counter disruptions in recent years. But no matter where you are on your journey of digital transformation, your business needs to change as it evolves. So, what’s the best way forward?

Many business leaders are adopting automation as a critical step in digitally transforming their businesses to operate more efficiently, grow their companies, and keep their employees productive and satisfied. Even amid ongoing changes, now can be the right time to shift your focus from the short-term to a long-term strategy so you can capitalize on the changes you’ve already put in place.

A great place to start is evaluating your processes for managing company spend. Automating how you manage travel, expense, and vendor invoices can give you the business data you need to discover opportunities to save or grow while giving you stronger cash flow control so you’re resilient enough to weather changes and disruptions along the way.

Key learnings:

* Business leader's goals, and challenges – and evaluating your current position
* The benefits of finance automation
* How to get started and build a long-term solution

SAP Concur & Responsible Future: Why A Sustainable Travel Programme Matters

All aspects of the spend management process must continually optimise – eliminating inefficient processes, time zappers, and “we’ve always done it that way” procedures, so they will not only operate in a more streamlined way, but fully contribute to the desired business outcomes of your organisation.

The need to streamline business spend processes and gain control over inefficiencies to keep your company moving is now bigger than ever. Before disruption became an everyday reality, corporate spending was changing – and now it’s changing even more. In the past, spending decisions were already spread out across the organisation. But hybrid or remote work models mean transactions are even more decentralised. So now – when cash flow, cost, and budget control are the most critical – it’s more important than ever to stay on top of your spend management program and focus on achieving positive business outcomes.

Join SAP Concur solutions experts Bill Becker, Matthew Ditch & Emily Gosling for this 3-part webinar series focused on achieving impactful business outcomes.
The series will explore the foundations of a strategic spend management program, covering the following topics:

*Identifying and mitigating blind spots and risks
*Spending money "wiser" through better insights into business spend (Effectiveness)
*Achieving improved controls of non-compliant spend (Efficiency)
*Optimisation of employee experience and productivity
*Value of a connected platform and partner ecosystem
*Power of data and actionable insights (single source of reporting)
