Cost is Back! Quick-Wins & New Strategies for Cost Saving

Add bookmark

Cost saving has always been an absolute fundamental for shared services, however in the last few years, cost as a theme has slipped into the background, being overshadowed by a drive for value. This is all about to change. Cost as a focus is back, in a big way.  With an age-old topic such as cost-savings, it’s important to re-examine best practices and make sure you’re still ticking off all the obvious opportunities. However, with AI tools becoming cheaper and new techniques being developed in areas such as digital transformation and process improvement there may also be new opportunities to drive down costs and impress your CFO.

In this episode Phil Searle CEO and Founder, Chazey Partners, and Lee Coulter, Global Head of Transformation, Chazey Partners discuss their top tips for cost savings. Including supply-chain transformation, investing in the right technology and the areas that will make an impact today!

If you enjoy this podcast – you can catch the Chazey Partners workshop at SSO Week North America, which is focused on Unleashing the Force of Digital Transformation for Autonomous Operations.
