Technology In Focus - Streamlining Finance Processes For Success

Event summary

Technology is a transformational force in public finance, offering improved timeliness, productivity, effectiveness, and crucially improved citizen experience. As local authorities are under increasing pressure to deliver more with less, CIPFA in collaboration with Access PaySuite are hosting an in-person discussion of the impact of technology, automation and integration, on finance processes, teams, overheads and how local government adoption of the right technology can help drive a better public service for communities.
