Booking.com join Source 2 Pay Summit 2020

Welcome to Booking.com joining Source 2 Pay Summit 2020. Alexandre Tschann, P2P Manager at Booking.com will be sharing what their strive towards world class source to pay encompass.

In the source to pay area the words “best in class”, “best practice” and “world class” is often use. But what does that mean? For sure not the same thing for every company, but what does it mean to one company and their decisions developing their sourcing, procurement and finance operations?

Let’s find out!

One thing is for sure – companies need to “build the house” before starting to decorate it i.e unless you have control over what you do and how you do it (know you processes and structures) – how can you build a vision of automation, advanced analytics and assisted decision making?

At Source 2 Pay Summit 2020 you will be able to sit down with Alexandre and both learn form his experiences and that from other peers joining the summit. Take a look below what will be shared and discussed.

As a B2C technology driven company, the main areas of spend at Booking.com are in Digital marketing and Information Technology, but with a need to support a really extended global network of offices with local vendors.

Theme Discussion | How and why should you aspire to reach world class source to pay?

At booking.com the decision has been made to strive for world class source to pay processes. As a technology based company listed on the Nasdaq and spread across the world, the company – with 18 000 employees – has a global, regional and local scope. Procurement focus is on strategic spend, while vendor management aims at mitigating risks for suppliers with a global, regional or local set up. The whole organisation aims for higher level POs finding the right balance between controls/risks and agility for the business.  Here you can learn about what booking.com are doing to develop their processes, as well as share and discuss your experiences.

  • What does world class source to pay mean? The journey taken by Booking.com shared.
  • How to balance controls and efficiency: the struggle to define the efficient approval matrix and invoice validation process!
  • How do you balance local, regional and global set up within procurement and finance?
