There are many ways in which finance teams can drive value within an organization. One that is often overlooked or taken for granted is cash. The cash conversion cycle is the lifeblood of a company. This is best demonstrated and actioned through days sales outstanding (DSO). Billing DSO is the average number of days invoices are outstanding until cash is received. Driving a lower DSO leads to accelerated cash flows. Effective DSO management starts with timely billing. Working capital generated from timely billing and a lower DSO can be invested back into the business to drive growth and innovation. While DSO is a powerful indicator of financial efficiency, its true value lies in proactive management. By prioritizing timely billing and optimizing processes, we not only accelerate cash flows but also strengthen financial resilience. To improve your DSO you must: –Enhance Billing Processes: Review and streamline billing procedures to ensure invoices are accurate, clear, and sent out promptly. –Leverage Technology: Explore automation tools that can expedite invoicing and payment processes, reducing administrative delays. Let’s ensure financial resilience by focusing on proactive DSO management and optimizing our processes for accelerated cash flows.

In a recent survey by DXC Technologies, nearly half (46%) of executives say that technical debt is the silent saboteur inhibiting their ability to innovate and grow. As companies race to build the latest and greatest software for their businesses, this persistent challenge often lurks unseen until it starts to hinder growth. Think of it as the accumulated cost of past decisions—proprietary systems, and outdated technologies stitched together over time. Initially practical, these choices eventually burden organizations with high maintenance costs, inefficiencies, and barriers to scalability. Research by McKinsey indicates tech debt accounts for about 40% of IT balance sheets and companies pay an additional 10% to 20% to address tech debt on top of the costs of any project. This is the very challenge many organizations find themselves grappling with today—a challenge that demands strategic intervention. Amidst this challenge lies an opportunity for transformation. – It's about embracing a holistic approach—a platform that consolidates disparate functions like finance, HR, and operations under one unified system.  – This isn't merely about replacing old with new; it's about strategically transitioning from legacy technology to agile, scalable solutions that align with modern business needs. – With the bar continuing to get increasingly higher, companies must rethink their approach to technology—not as a mere tool but as a strategic partner in their growth journey.  – This journey isn't just about adopting the latest tech trends; it's about reshaping organizational DNA to prioritize agility, scalability, and resilience. Now is the time to address tech debt and it's crucial to embrace technologies that sit on top of ERPs and are native extensions of your systems. This approach solves workflows on an end-to-end basis versus a point basis. Join the conversation below and share your thoughts on how your organization is navigating the complexities of tech debt.
