Today’s economic conditions
make cost-cutting imperative
for businesses who want to not
only succeed, but also survive
in a globalizing economy where
organizations need to compete
across boundaries, manage the
bottom line, and deploy effective
processes. Finding ways to
trim spending effectively while
increasing revenue can be a
harrowing task, and may prove
more difficult as time goes on.
The ever increasing costs of doing
business today is forcing businesses
into measuring cost performance
throughout the entire organization
and not just certain departments.
Trends emerging from these
scrutinized views on spend
management are shedding new
light on areas where general
and administrative (G&A) costs
may effectively be reduced while
making a positive difference in the
performance and efficiency of
your business.
The cost-cutting trends below
highlight the benefits of paperless
solutions for any business!
Streamlined online document
solutions solve key financial executive challenges!
Yes, it is easy to cut staff and reduce salaries,
but there is only so far you can go with that
common mind set. “You can only close so
many plants and lay off so many people,”
– Kevin Costello, President, Ariba Inc., a spend-
management software and services provider.
