ADVISORY, Sept. 12, 2006 (PRIMEZONE) --
WHEN: Monday, September 18th, 2006 TIME: 9:35-10:35 a.m., CDT WHAT: The 18th annual WTMA conference, hosted by the Wisconsin Treasury and Management Association, is the premier event to learn about best practices in the cash and treasury management profession. Aceva's Regional Director, Ben Beal, will present "Unlocking Working Capital: Moving from Reactive to Proactive Management" aimed at helping executives elevate their cash flow performance initiatives by focusing on the entire quote-to-cash process as a way to unlock working capital. No longer viewed as an accounting task, working capital is now seen as a vehicle to dramatically increase corporate performance and improve shareholder value. Whereas cash flow improvements traditionally have been focused on the downstream collections process, the ability to impact working capital throughout the entire quote-to-cash cycle has proven to deliver an exponential effect on reducing days sales outstanding (DSO), preventing revenue leakage and improving the overall customer experience. The presentation will cover: -- How complex business processes and disparate technologies can negatively impact working capital -- Methodologies to achieve best practices around the quote-to-cash cycle in order to improve cash flow and operational excellence -- How to leverage technology solutions to drive down accounts receivable, including case studies illustrating successful approaches to collections management automation WHO: Ben Beal, Regional Director, Aceva Technologies WHERE: The 18th Annual 2006 WTMA Annual Conference at the Blue Harbor Resort & Conference Center located in Sheboygan, Wisconsin HOW: To register for the upcoming event or for more information, go to: http://www.wi-tma.org/conference.html
