As companies of all sizes prepare for the coming economic recovery, controlling spend and optimizing cash flow can help them be more resilient. But the key to controlling spend and optimizing cash flow can prove elusive¡ªparticularly if an organization relies on manual processes for expense management.
?
Let¡¯s look at how expense automation can help businesses become more resilient and position themselves for recovery and growth.

?Digital transformation and business resilience

Many smaller businesses have already been recognizing the need to embrace digital transformation in their finance processes. A 2020 survey by Oxford Economics of 2,000 small and midsize businesses found that almost all respondents plan to shift their manual finance processes into the digital realm over the next few years.

These organizations expect digital processes to help improve their financial performance and gain more flexibility to withstand uncertainties and challenges. In addition:

• 45% of respondents expect to increase efficiency by minimizing error, risk, and cost
• 43% expect to boost productivity via transformation and intelligent process automation
• 40% expect to free up employees to focus on higher-level business tasks
