Objectives Of Operational Efficiency


The division of operational efficiency is also involved in coordinating and facilitating changes in the scope of activity which he is responsible.

* Operational mission: deliver in-house or external service
o Shared: used by all clients (which requires a sufficient level of both standardization and adaptability to customer needs)
o Quality: ensuring a high level of service,
o Integrated: consistent with the possible developments and other services (the same principles or standards, consistency of information ...).
* Strategic Missions: alignment with corporate goals
o In terms of scope of activity: both operational manager of the service and project management strategy on the field, defining the principles and standards of practice and evolution,
o In terms of process, users of these services: the service of development projects for the integration of services,
o Financial issues: cost reduction in service level or above.

The establishment of centers of operational efficiency should facilitate changes by developing the flexibility of the organization. This distinguishes them from the pooling of services that do not necessarily generate earnings in excess of centralization of the means.
In terms of implementation, the creation of a center of operational efficiency is not in the pooling of existing services but rather to develop an internal provider with a service offering clean.
Key features of the poles of operational efficiency

To effectively perform its duties, the division of operational efficiency will:

* Involve activities for which it is actually possible to concentrate three types of assets: the expertise, resources and information,
* Be resolutely turned towards the customers either returning customers or projects of development,

Organizational Challenges


In today's competitive (aggressive competition in the credit rates, price competition in the online banking ...), research to optimize the margin does not tolerate weakness in the quality of service provided to customers and time control of operations with these clients. This requires change in the existing organizations to increase efficiency in resource constants.

At the strategic level, the connections between stakeholders require when they occur to review fully the organization of internal functions become redundant or competing. Moreover, the conduct of political expansion (purchase of subsidiaries abroad, in particular) need to be integrates in various kinds of institutions (specialized activities but varied regional specificities ...) quickly and efficiently. The goal is then to integrate these institutions spun in standardized processes of the Group (in order to master the complexity of management) while making them benefit in return, services and assets that will support their development (discharge of certain activities centralized management, benefit sharing relating to the purchasing capacity of the Group, providing resources such as infrastructure group ... SI).

To meet the regulatory requirements (Basel II, MiFID ...), projects involving many entities set up new processes intended for the management and regulatory bodies.

These developments guided by the strategy or imposed by the regulatory and competitive environment combine to create a situation of permanent change of internal organizations. This is reflected by the increase in the frequency of reorganizations, the constantly changing service delivery entities, changes in scope of responsibility ... information systems must then accompany this change permanent, which generates significant expense. In addition, some priority changes (particularly regulatory) limit the possibilities of devices in parallel developments. Indeed, they are faced with schedules that do not always maintain a path for the information system progressive and consistent.

Supply Chain Finance Part. IV


The potential improvements in the development of CFS are:

    * Improve the traceability of transactions (orders, invoices, making payments, cash) to the sender as the recipient.
    * Avoid litigation and the costs associated with their management.
    * Generate working capital through better management of financial flows. For this, banks need to adapt their offerings to the new needs expressed by client companies.
    * Benefit from the discount offered by suppliers in case of cash payment, without degrading its financial position since fiscal third rule for the acquiring company (reverse factoring)
    * Retain the most important suppliers
    * Increase the capacity to purchase the acquiring company

The other advantage of the SCF:
Long control of the supply chain was seen as a logistical necessity rather than as a real competitive advantage, however, the globalization of the economy no longer allows this way of thinking because it is cost savings to all levels to be able to offer the best prices. Control of financial flows is now the last piece of the savings. Therefore, enterprise customers are now very interested in the ability of their suppliers or customers to integrate into a process of "modernization" of tools related to accounting and finance offers available from financial institutions. Control its cash flow enables a company to offer customers efficient service and achieve economies together. It seems that the implementation of management solutions for financial information is involved, to some extent to meet the needs of business partners and thus contribute to their loyalty. However, in some areas as high technology, supply chain based on key players, specialized suppliers and rare it is imperative to retain.

The CFS will ensure the smooth flow of information related to financial flows and thus contributes to the flexibility of the entire chain by addressing the shortcomings of funding or access to financial information. Continue to operate from the old ways is contrary to the current economy and what it requires companies in terms of efficiency. Thus, it should be put in place systems to access information yesterday fragmented as companies seek to ensure unity became a key factor of success.
In short, it is called today to find solutions that integrate all the information (physical flows, information flows and financial flows) so that they can be exploited best by all participants in the chain supply and their financiers.
It is therefore not surprising that the recent emergence of offers of "Supply Chain Finance officials" within recruitment agencies

Supply Chain Finance Part. III

The implementation of this portal thus has the advantage of reducing costs through paperless transactions, track and archive centrally each exchange and control of customer disputes. This progress is in itself help much appreciated by the companies that allows them to save time previously spent on resolving issues sterile.
The innovation lies in the fact that one third may have financial access to this platform. It is then able to offer (so early) offers funding to the various players in the supply chain (discount ...).
Everyone wins: the financial institution sells its finance offers closer to the needs of its clients, customers more effectively manage their need for working capital (BFR) and supply chain pressures subside.

When asked the 500 largest European companies on working capital financing techniques that seem to grow strongly in the near future (study Demica - December 2006), loans by the banking pool and the financing of the supply chain (reverse factoring) top.

CGA of Societe Generale Group, Eurofactor, IFN (...) are some of the players with offers of "reverse factoring" to their customers. The principle is simple, a financial intermediary pays the bill to the supplier on the day of issue which in return allows the acquiring company to benefit from an extension (the broker earns a margin on this).
It should be noted that in Italy, some companies have created their own company credit and factoring without going through financial institutions.

The CFS is not exactly new, serious consideration is that since the early 2000s leading to innovations both from UPS or DHL (billing management, collection, delivery against payment) that Banks have realized, with some delay, the need to provide their customers with offers to alleviate existing pressures on the financing of the Supply Chain.
