the missing 3rd dimension to help CFO’s navigate the journey to world class Finance and Accounting

In the pursuit of optimized Finance & Accounting (F&A) processes, CFOs face the challenge of deriving greater productivity and quality from fewer resources. At the same time, they are under unprecedented compliance scrutiny and market pressure.

Smooth and responsive business operations demand seamless processing. Delays in your back office can lead to missed opportunities and lost revenue. As a result, improvements to your F&A processes can have a direct impact on the bottom line.

Partnering with You to Streamline F&A

As a strategic partner, Capgemini works with you to transform your global processing model and enhance your F&A operations. We can provide our F&A services as end-to-end processes or process-specific services. We have also developed a suite of management assurance services to address the critical area of compliance.

  • Purchase-to-pay
  • Accounting-to-reporting

Business Insight

We have developed unique value-adding processes such as Concurrent Audit, Profit Recovery and Ethical Fraud Detection to bring greater benefits to our clients’ F&A operations. We draw on business analysis skills and intelligence tools to pinpoint areas for improvement across your data and workflow. Combined with our process expertise and sector knowledge, this approach enables us to bring true business insight to our clients.

Value Measurement: the 3rd Dimension in World-class F&A

We understand that world-class F&A activities must be aligned with company values. Whereas conventional benchmarking measures F&A in 2 dimensions – efficiency and effectiveness – we add a 3rd dimension: value. We have developed a unique 3-dimensional measurement matrix to support all primary processes on the path to world-class F&A.

Freedom and Flexibility

Outsourcing your F&A operations to Capgemini Business Proces Outsourcing (BPO) frees your finance executives and managers from day-to-day resource management, allowing them to concentrate on the strategic thinking and innovative programs that drive your business. Your freedom, combined with our optimized back-office processing, transforms your F&A operations into a value-adding business partner and puts you on the path to world class F&A.
