Business Transformation: Uitdagingen voor CFO SMI
• Business partner ; meedenken over strategie en organisatie
• Groei van de onderneming eist een
meer volwassen aanpak
• Acquisitieplannen ; focus vs verbreding
• Kostenbeheersing blijft belangrijk– Loonontwikkeling CEE
• Efficiency slagen – Benchmarking, proces assesments– Kennis uitwisselen/ best practice sharing
• Verbetering (Corporate) Performance Management
– Een versie van de werkelijkheid– Minder excel– Betere managementinfo– Effectiever budgetteren
INTERNATIONAL
Werkveld CFO SMISituatieschets• Financial Accounting
– Concernrapportages strak georganiseerd (Hyperion)
• Management Accounting– Eigen invulling BU’s– Geen centrale CIO– Board van Divisiedirecteuren– Locale P&L verantwoordelijkheid
• Doelstellingen– Groei – Professionalisering
• AO/IC• Managementrapportages• IFRS• Opleidingsniveau CFO’s
Dilemma’s• Groei vs KT winst
• Centraal/ Decentraal ;
SSC voor Admin , IT ?
– Wie neemt risico’s/ investeringen– Geen gezamenlijk IT platform
• BI platform of lokaal Excel– Uniformiteit in Management Acc.
• Multimedia ; nwe diensten of focus
• Procesoptimalisatie vs local for local
• Geen gezamenlijk IT platform SM Divisies ; zelf ontwikkelen ?
• Een excellente finance functie is een katalysator van excellente business performance
• Contracten met nieuwe klanten zijn altijd resultanten van een afgewogen en evenwichtig besluitvormingsproces
• Een decentraal opgezette functie heeft zijn langste tijd gehad
• Finance is voorloper van transformaties/change
• Customer value en profitabilty is moeilijk integraal te benaderen
• De CFO moet zich meer focussen op finance en minder op andere domeinen
• De CFO heeft een sturende rol om andere staffuncties naar een hoger niveau te tillen
• Alle staffuncties zouden in een shared service omgeving beter bijdragen aan de business
