CFO Insights: Achieving High Performance Through Finance Business Process Outsourcing Hardcover - 2004 - 1st Edition

by Stewart Clements; Michael Donnellan; Cedric Read


From the jacket flap

Outsourcing is rapidly emerging as a new business imperative. The decision for most CFOs is no longer whether to outsource, but when - and how. This can be one of the most demanding challenges a company faces. How do leading corporations decide where to start and how far to go? How are major stakeholders likely to react? What should you look for in a service provider?

A timely strategic guide to the fast-growing field of business process outsourcing (BPO), this book maps the outsourcing landscape fully and objectively. It explores the exciting opportunities that BPO offers for achieving:

  • greater operational efficiency and flexibility
  • increased control and transparency
  • more accurate data and forecasting
  • integrated financial solutions
  • improved customer service
  • high performance
Today, many leading-edge companies are using BPO not only to cut costs and improve efficiency, but as a path to enterprise-wide transformation. CFO Insights offers practical advice and strategies you can use to quickly harness this powerful tool to enhance your company's performance. The book features frontline CFO advice, original research, in-depth case studies, and best-practice data and analysis.
