Objective:

  • This tool provides enterprises an indicative automation potential that they can achieve an outsourcing contract
  • It is intended to be leveraged as a high-level early indicator of automation potential before getting into deep dive / due diligence

Assumptions:

  • This tool estimates the automation potential linked to FTE reduction only
  • The analysis does not take into account the cost of automation (i.e. when considering overall savings, cost of automation must be factored in separately)
  • The FTE reduction potential takes into account only automation-related benefits; it does not take into account process improvement benefits such as six sigma implementation

Scope of this tool:

The scope of this tool is restricted to Finance & Accounting (F&A) services; it assesses the impact of automation on Finance & Accounting Outsourcing (FAO) contract across five key processes in the entire F&A value chain.
