I have developed commercial payments expertise over three decades. I facilitate electronic B2B payment relationships between commercial solution providers/issuers and their customers. I advise business leaders on how to take cost out of their procure-to-pay processes (e.g. replacing checks with electronic payments). In part, I help transform Accounts Payable Departments into profit centers and make them more eco-friendly! I help organizations to save time and money, while eliminating unnecessary use of POs and checks for "low value" transactions. My recommendations may include the use of virtual cards, purchasing cards, corporate travel cards, fleet cards, and/or multicards (aka one cards). I offer guidance to sourcing executives on how to improve data quality, resulting in more effective preferred pricing negotiations with key suppliers. My advice can lead to less dependency on inaccurate or missing data from petty cash, cash advances, personal credit cards, check drafts, and check requests. My consultation can improve the bottom-line for organizations by optimizing working capital, reducing payment costs, and generating rebates on B2B spend!On behalf of Mastercard and our commercial solution providers, I am looking to partner with:● Business process outsourcing (BPO) organizations● Freight and logistic companies (e.g. 3PLs, freight bill audit payment cos, and carriers)● Hospitals● Third-party B2B payment aggregators● Wholesale travel, including OTAs, and tour operatorsInterested in an exploratory partnership conversation?
