Stephen Carter Email & Phone Number

As a strategic thought leader and product marketing guru with a professional background in Procurement, Invoicing and Payments technologies, Now delivering a market leading solutions with Ivalua. Even in this digital world, we still need to address the age-old problem of paying suppliers at the right time, whilst optimizing cash and make a return on invested capital. I've worked as a supplier, with billing teams to reduce invoicing costs, in the UK Government as an architect around the next-gen marketplace (even ran some events) and have worked with global Accounts Payable teams to help them process payments faster. As my first billing project was in 1989, and my first AP automation go-live was in 1996, I have seen it all work and some of the industry dead ends, like supplier networks! My aim is to finally see the world go paperless, not by e-Invoicing but through a truly digital supply chain driven by payments. A solution that bridges the gaps between Supplier, Procurement and Finance. Today, I present on supplier relationships, re-risking supply chains and the value of automating the whole spend cycle. #S2P #ESG #CashOptimization #LoveProcurement Whilst not revolutionising the Spend Cycle, I'm an Author & Historian with specialist knowledge of the life & times of the duke of Monmouth covering the Restoration to Revolution (1649 to 1695). My books Fighting for Liberty and One King! Provide a detailed, fresh and gritty account of the Monmouth Rebellion of 1685, My third book is the first in the Science of Arms series, explaining the Art of War in late 17th Century. All published by Helion & Company. I'm currently writing of a biography of Lucy Walter, the Secret Queen for Pen & Sword.
