About the webinar
Many retail organizations have spent years modernizing ERP platforms such as SAP to standardize procurement. While these systems execute transactions efficiently, they often lack the continuous analytics needed to detect subtle errors, policy breaches and emerging risks.
As a result, issues such as duplicate invoices, vendor price creep, shadow vendors and potential fraud can persist undetected – leaving finance leaders exposed to financial loss, compliance gaps and limited visibility into operational risk.
In this 30-minute executive discussion, we examine why procurement integrity is now a CFO-level priority – and how retail organizations are moving beyond periodic audits to continuous financial assurance.
Dustin Diamond, Vice President of Finance at Sobeys, shares how advanced analytics is helping uncover hidden risk and enable proactive, ongoing financial oversight.
