Optimize your Order to Cash ( O2C ) processes: How about reducing your dunning and reporting times by a factor of 6?
[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”25″][vc_column_text]
To gain competitiveness and move to a cash culture, digitizing the Order To Cash (O2C) process could be a major asset in the life of a company. The Digital Credit Manager must be able both to anticipate risks thanks to scoring and Big Data, to pilot and analyze his business indicators thanks to intelligent reports, to automate to gain in productivity and efficiency but also to collaborate with his company’s sales and customers. These objectives are becoming increasingly accessible to all companies, whether they are SMEs, VSEs or large corporations. This is made possible by the democratization of technologies such as the Cloud, Big Data and Artificial Intelligence.

What’s the point of digitizing the Order to Cash process?
[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]In this context, the aim of digitalization is to capitalize on new technologies to automate time-consuming tasks, bring mobility and real time, and transform raw data into business indicators, some of which are predictive. These points are priorities for CFOs and credit managers, as shown by a recent PwC study. The aim is to have the best decision-making indicators to improve competitiveness.

Why is this important?
[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]Trade receivables have a direct impact on WCR, yet many companies go bankrupt or are hampered in their ability to innovate and grow by a lack of adequate cash. In B2B, companies have a DSO of 60 to 90 days, and often manage their accounts receivable fairly manually. Digital technology can help optimize this situation, both in terms of intelligent automation of dunning, credit risk and financing, and in terms of dynamic business dashboards. [/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”25″][vc_column_text el_class=”orange”]
What kind of optimization can be expected?
[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]In short, digitizing the order-to-cash process can halve late payments and reduce DSO by 15-20%. In an increasingly competitive environment, companies that know how to evolve with digital technology will have a major competitive advantage. A study by MIT Sloan and Capgemini shows that companies that transform themselves thanks to digital technology generate 26% more profit. One of our customers has cut its dunning processing and deferral generation time by a factor of 6. This time is now devoted to in-depth analysis of areas for optimization.

Is it complicated to implement?
[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]There are 3 essential success factors: the right level of willingness to transform, the use of new technologies with the right partners, and change management. AstoniTF can provide the technology and create an adoption unit to support its customers. The will to transform, on the other hand, must come from within the company. To simplify the transformation AstoniTF also offers a platform delivered pre-connected to the main ERPs, Factors and credit insurers. [/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”25″][vc_column_text el_class=”orange”]
And what about the future?
[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]Towards artificial intelligence and learning systems that will bring smarter automation and recommendations. What’s more, the latest studies show a potential additional margin of 5 to 15% thanks to AI. AstoniTF is moving forward on these topics to bring even more value to businesses.
