Symptoms Of Inefficient Procure To Pay Processes
Frequent payment runs
Early payments
Use of non-standard payment terms
Use of not approved suppliers
Multiple payment terms for the same supplier
Credit sanctions by suppliers – delivery hold, cash on delivery terms
Key actions to address symptoms
Segment your supply base – core vs. non-core and extend payment terms to Net
60 days for non-core suppliers
Rationalize your payment runs – once a week or less frequent

Symptoms Of Inefficient Forecast To Fulfill Processes
Increasing number of slow moving and obsolete items (SLOBs)
Lead times that do not reflect reality
Use of non-statistical safety stock parameters
Lack of differentiated customer service requirements
Limited forecast accuracy
Product complexity, e.g. high number of SKU‟s
Slow supply chain response to market changes
Key actions to address symptoms
Calculate target inventory levels using statistical methods
Focus on underlying drivers of inventory such as minimum order quantities
(MOQs) and lead times
8© 2013
Symptoms Of Inefficient Order To Cash Processes
Frequent credit holds for customers – inappropriate credit limits
Increasing balance of past due receivables – Ageing
Increasing levels of bad debt
Increase in disputes, i.e. customers‟ billing complaints
Use of non-standard payment terms
High volume of short payments
High volume of exceptions in cash application process
Key actions to address symptoms
Segment your customer base and develop segment specific collection strategies

Working Capital Survey

2012 Working Capital Summary
Working Capital performance gap between the US and Europe narrowed
significantly in 2012 with Europe regaining almost twice the amount of ground it
lost in the previous year (outperforming the US by 6% after having
underperformed by 3%)
The working capital performance gap between large companies vs. small,
medium companies (greater or less than $1B in annual revenue) has narrowed
Leading performers have continued to make major strides in improving WC
management by taking a number of steps (e.g., streamlining their supply chains,
managing payment terms, collaborating more closely with each of their partners
in their extended enterprise, enhancing their risk management policies)
Many poorer-performing companies still fail to address the “root and branch”
aspects of WC policies, processes and metrics as they tend to focus on short
term actions rather than more substantial and sustainable operational and
structural changes
16© 2013
Findings For 2012 In The US And Europe
► In comparison with 2011, companies‟ WC performance in 2012 has deteriorated
in US but improved in Europe, the reverse of what happened in 2011
► For Europe, improvement in C2C arose from lower DSO and DIO, partly offset by
lower DPO
► In the US, DSO and DIO deteriorated while DPO was slightly up
% Change
Region Metric 2012 2012/2011 2011/2010
US DSO 38.5 1% -3%
DIO 30.2 3% -2%
DPO 31.0 2% -3%
C2C 37.7 2% -3%
Europe DSO 50.0 -4% -1%
DIO 33.6 -2% 1%
DPO 44.4 -3% -1%
C2C 39.2 -4% 0%
17© 2013
Wide Variations In WC Performance Across Industries
► WC distinction between cyclical and non-
cyclical industries was more pronounced
than in 2011
► For the automotive industry, 2012 was
characterized by sharply diverging trends
in automotive production between
regions (up 17% in the US and down 6%
in Europe from their levels of 2011).
Against this difficult background,
automotive suppliers in the US reporting
significantly higher C2C, while their
European peers still managed to reduce
C2C
18© 2013
Large Distribution Of WC Performance Across
Other Regions
► Significant variations in WC performance overall and for each metric across six
other main regions and countries
Excludes metals & mining and oil & gas industries
19© 2013
SMEs‟ C2C Was 26% (Equivalent To 13 Days) Higher Than
That Of Large Companies On A Sales-weighted Basis
Scale provides greater opportunities to negotiate favorable payment terms with
customers and suppliers
However, SMEs scored slightly better than their larger counterparts in inventory
management. Perhaps because:
Larger companies are more likely to sell outside their home region, potentially giving
rise to longer lead times and excess safety stocks
Increased outsourcing are more widespread among large companies
20© 2013
What Are We Seeing?
Companies looking to grow in a cash efficient manner
Passing cash pain „down the chain‟
Companies looking for greater return from their cost reduction efforts
Shared Service Centers
Outsourcing arrangements
Challenges associated with globalization
Sales growth opportunities
Manufacturing capacity
Sourced product
Supply interruptions
Companies wanting new metrics around cash
Working capital
Cash flow forecasting

  • 14. 14© 2013 Agenda Sustainable working capital improvement Working capital performance management Working Capital Survey
  • 15. 15© 2013 2012 Working Capital Summary Working Capital performance gap between the US and Europe narrowed significantly in 2012 with Europe regaining almost twice the amount of ground it lost in the previous year (outperforming the US by 6% after having underperformed by 3%) The working capital performance gap between large companies vs. small, medium companies (greater or less than $1B in annual revenue) has narrowed Leading performers have continued to make major strides in improving WC management by taking a number of steps (e.g., streamlining their supply chains, managing payment terms, collaborating more closely with each of their partners in their extended enterprise, enhancing their risk management policies) Many poorer-performing companies still fail to address the “root and branch” aspects of WC policies, processes and metrics as they tend to focus on short term actions rather than more substantial and sustainable operational and structural changes
  • 16. 16© 2013 Findings For 2012 In The US And Europe ► In comparison with 2011, companies‟ WC performance in 2012 has deteriorated in US but improved in Europe, the reverse of what happened in 2011 ► For Europe, improvement in C2C arose from lower DSO and DIO, partly offset by lower DPO ► In the US, DSO and DIO deteriorated while DPO was slightly up % Change Region Metric 2012 2012/2011 2011/2010 US DSO 38.5 1% -3% DIO 30.2 3% -2% DPO 31.0 2% -3% C2C 37.7 2% -3% Europe DSO 50.0 -4% -1% DIO 33.6 -2% 1% DPO 44.4 -3% -1% C2C 39.2 -4% 0%
  • 17. 17© 2013 Wide Variations In WC Performance Across Industries ► WC distinction between cyclical and non- cyclical industries was more pronounced than in 2011 ► For the automotive industry, 2012 was characterized by sharply diverging trends in automotive production between regions (up 17% in the US and down 6% in Europe from their levels of 2011). Against this difficult background, automotive suppliers in the US reporting significantly higher C2C, while their European peers still managed to reduce C2C
  • 18. 18© 2013 Large Distribution Of WC Performance Across Other Regions ► Significant variations in WC performance overall and for each metric across six other main regions and countries Excludes metals & mining and oil & gas industries
  • 19. 19© 2013 SMEs‟ C2C Was 26% (Equivalent To 13 Days) Higher Than That Of Large Companies On A Sales-weighted Basis Scale provides greater opportunities to negotiate favorable payment terms with customers and suppliers However, SMEs scored slightly better than their larger counterparts in inventory management. Perhaps because: Larger companies are more likely to sell outside their home region, potentially giving rise to longer lead times and excess safety stocks Increased outsourcing are more widespread among large companies
  • 20. 20© 2013 What Are We Seeing? Companies looking to grow in a cash efficient manner Passing cash pain „down the chain‟ Companies looking for greater return from their cost reduction efforts Shared Service Centers Outsourcing arrangements Challenges associated with globalization Sales growth opportunities Manufacturing capacity Sourced product Supply interruptions Companies wanting new metrics around cash Working capital Cash flow forecasting
