Key 2013 AP Benchmarks and What Comes Next
Brought to you by The Accounts Payable Network and Basware
As accounts payable departments look for ways to transition from cost center to profit center and C-suite resource, TAPN’s 2013 benchmark survey results revealed some of the ways they are doing it. This report, culled from the accumulation of TAPN’s 2013 survey results, can help you build a strategic case for implementing AP automation and best practices as a revenue-enhancing investment — offering solid peer-group data on everything from spend management to card rebates and captured discounts. The data in this report comes from four TAPN benchmark surveys published in 2013: Disbursements, State of Accounts Payable, AP Customer Service and Travel & Expense.
This information-packed report reveals:
- Percentage of organizations using p-cards and ghost cards and the average annual user rebate
- Percentage of invoices paid by check – how does it compare to five years ago?
- AP departments top concern in AP today versus five years ago
- Usage of early-payment discounts to improve cash-flow management
- Percentage of those respondents that have automated various technologies
- Percent of T&E cost savings attributed to automation
- Percent of invoices received via traditional EDI
- Emerging government regulations on advancing electronic payments
- And much, much more!
