Why read this RadarView?

Many companies are looking for end-to-end digital transformation of their finance function. The demand for comprehensive engagements in the finance and accounting domain is increasing, minimizing siloes between IT and business processes. With the advent of COVID-19, the significance of disruptive technologies in transforming the finance function has emerged more than ever before. Many executives are striving to outsource the strategic and judgement-intensive finance domain, as opposed to only transaction-intensive finance operations.

It aims to aid companies in identifying the top service providers to transform their finance operations. It also offers an analysis of service providers’ capabilities in technology, domain expertise, and delivery-related support, thus enabling enterprises to identify the strategic partners for their F&A transformation.
