Top performing organizations generate 25 percent higher profit margins and grow at twice the rate of their competitors.

How do they do it?

Recently, Dr. Stephen G. Timme, President of FinListics Solutions and Adjunct Professor at the Georgia Institute of Technology, joined me on a webcast to answer that question. I've know Dr. Timme since my days at G-log when we worked together to help customers determine the ROI of transportation management solutions. We were also joined by Steve Cox, Vice President of Oracle Midsize Programs, who recently published an Oracle E-book, "Modern Best Practice Explained". In this webcast, Cox provides his perspective on how best performing companies are moving from best practice to modern best practice. 

Watch the webcast replay and you'll learn about the easy to follow, top down approach to:

  • Identify processes that should be targeted for improvement

  • Leverage a modern best practice maturity model to start a path to progress

  • Link financial performance gaps to operational KPIs

  • Improve cash flow by benchmarking key financial metrics

  • Develop intelligent estimates of achievable cash flow benefits
