GARDEN GROVE, CA -- (MARKET WIRE) -- 02/28/07 -- Vengroff, Williams & Associates (VWA), a leading provider of receivable management and business process outsourcing solutions with more than 3000 worldwide customers, today announced that Gartner, Inc. (NYSE: IT) recently profiled VWA as one of the seven market leaders in its "Dataquest Insight: F&A BPO Competitive Landscape, Worldwide, 2006." Published January 15, 2007, written by Cathy Tornbohm, List of Figures, Figure 1.
As a leader in the F&A outsourcing market, VWA sees the following outsourcing trends emerging in 2007:
-- Competitive landscape of finance and accounting outsourcing and with labor market changes, companies will be forced to elevate training to provide superior customer service. Labor Markets continue to change and the ability to train and increase the KPIs at the desk level will continue to challenge the F&A market. Outsourcing providers need to see the ability to utilize technologies to analyze the current work habits and accountability of each function. This ability, used in tandem with a learning management system (LMS), can provide intuitive learning programs, on-demand sessions and scripting programs to support the right decision and work flow for acceptable people process.
-- Finance-driven process improvements will need to bridge the process gap within the entire corporate organization. Driven by greater integration between finance and non-finance related data (such as sales, marketing and customer data), finance now has greater insight into performance issues that arise within the quote-to-cash cycle. Outsourcing of the F&A functions will allow for corporations to have the ability to create a streamlined ownership process of all tasks.
-- Global standardization of billing and payment practices will drive companies to adopt new technologies. Doing business on all corners of the globe has created a situation where standardization of such practices as customer billing, electronic payment and document delivery needs to be synchronized on one platform for use around the world. Such functionalities as e-billing focus on creating a secure method of clear visibility around payment, disputes, POD, and contracts.
