Treasury Management System Selection & Implementation
What is the importance of a Treasury Management System?
A Treasury Management System (TMS) is a software application that automates the steps needed to manage a company’s cash flow. The importance of a Treasury Management System is its ability to provide Treasurers with visibility and reporting to manage their business, liquidity, optimize their cash flow and meet compliance requirements.
How do I start a Treasury Management System Selection?
Think of a TMS selection as a fulltime job. As with any application needed to run your business, start with prioritizing your wants and needs. Next, fully research and understand the capabilities of the TMS options available (typically TMS overviews and TMS demonstrations provide the insight needed to fully understand the Treasury Management System functionality). Then, there is always your budget. Fully understand the TMS solution costs and support as well as TMS implementation options.
This is the point when working with a TMS consultant makes the most sense. Nitor, the leader in source-to-pay transformation, and Kyriba,the leader in global treasury solutions, have teamed up to meet your TMS needs.
