Six Sigma, a business philosophy focused on reducing process defects and elevating operational performance, was pioneered in the manufacturing sector and is now being adopted by forward thinking finance organizations. Six Sigma uses a powerful approach that drives processes to a state of near perfection, with only 3.4 defects allowed per 1 million opportunities. The presentation will focus on the ways that corporations have used Six Sigma along with solutions like Emagia to achieve higher levels of performance in their cash flow processes as well as optimize working capital.
Companies such as Volt Information Sciences, an Emagia customer and strong proponent of Six Sigma, have seen dramatic results from streamlining receivables management including tighter control over Days Sales Outstanding, reduction in bad debt expense, and higher levels of customer satisfaction.
"Six Sigma is a proven operational standard of excellence and many world class finance departments are trying to achieve these new levels of efficiency," stated Ms. Gundavelli. "Companies like Volt Information Sciences that have embraced this business philosophy in their credit, collections and receivables departments have seen that the Emagia solution is an integral part of their new Six Sigma driven financial processes."
