Spend management is an important process in every industry. However, we are looking at the BFSI sector in particular.
Banking, Finance Services & Insurance (BFSI) sector is quite an attractive revenue market pool in Germany. According to the Wall Street Journal’s article ‘Should, Germany Be the New Model for European Banks?’, Germany has by far the highest number of credit institutes in Europe.
Not to forget, it certainly was hit during the great ‘financial crises. This led to many companies shutting down, but the ones that survived made it big. Not only that, but it also gave way to many new emerging companies. The importance of spend management increases in such cases. Let’s say BFSI in Germany is not going down anytime soon.
Did you know that a new work development – digitalization of the working environment, referred to as ‘work 4.0’, is quickly catching up in Germany? In November 2016, the German Federal Ministry of Labour and Social Affairs, headed by social democrat Andrea Nahles, published the white paper “Work 4.0”.
Work 4.0 reflects a growing consensus among German policymakers that changes the world of work, having inevitable impacts on the welfare state and social security systems. Many companies & employees have become more flexible towards agile working, mobile working, and crowd working.
These changing framework conditions have been evolved to compete with a stricter observance of employee protection rights. While this is being enforced, it’s time that companies make use of proper resources to maximize efficiency to achieve better output.
With the advancement in technology & time turning into money, organizations are moving towards efficient use of time as well as resources.
According to 2019 CPO Agenda: Building Next-Generation Capabilities by The Hackett Group, “50% of organizations currently have a major improvement program underway for improving analytical capabilities. Since this is the most critically important focus area, procurement organizations are taking steps to address this need.“
With the primary focus of generating savings & contributing to the organization’s bottom line, more and more organizations are looking for investing in digital transformation & exploring AI.
