The Supplier Challenge: Tips for a Broader Enablement
The Hackett’s Group’s research shows that despite the significant benefits of E- Invoicing platforms most companies still struggle with transitioning the majority of invoices away from manual processes. Many buyers struggle with the initial supplier onboarding process. For success, coordination is required among multiple stakeholder groups, both at the supplier and the purchasing company. This session will focus on the reasons behind this challenge and the practices leading organizations are using to drive higher levels of invoice automation. This session will also give a summary on the results/findings of the latest 2016 P2P Key Issues study.

The Challenges for Manpower in the Digital Transformation
Manpower Group has 55,000 employees in the Mexico region. We process the payroll for all of them on a weekly and biweekly basis and there is no room for failure. At the same time we are reinventing and adjusting our systems and processes to be 100% digital. By 2017 we expect to have implemented a 100% digitalized onboard and contact system with our employees. Our first step in 2015 was to generate and deliver the payroll receipt / invoice for the employee paperless and then to be available on demand 7x24 wherever they are. Now they can reach us and their information using our App.

Keynote
Snapchat of Working Capital
A combination of factors is now making the allocation of credit a “where and when you need it proposition”, without necessarily setting up expensive credit lines, signing receivable purchase or intercreditor agreements. David calls this the Snapchat of Working Capital. During his keynote session, he will provide an overview of how technology is disrupting the world of business credit and offer my hypotheses on what the winners and losers will look like in this fast changing ecosystem. As part of this discussion, he will provide a level set on a range of topics, from new technology building blocks (e.g., marketplace platforms, networks, blockchain, predictive analytics, etc.) to the shifting world of technology applications (e.g., eProcurement, E-Invoicing, Purchase-to-Pay, etc.). to new non bank intermediaries (e.g., Amazon Business, Greensill Capital, Institutional Investors).
