Throughout the economic downturn, Cost Management has been at the top of the
corporate agenda; but as we start to see signs of stability return,
organisations
are focused on rebuilding and further improving margins. Recent KPMG firms'
experience demonstrates that while short term cost reductions can be found,
Sustainable Margin Improvement presents difficult challenges both in relation
to pricing
and "right-sizing” the cost base.
Listen to the recent KPMG webcast which featured KPMG partners Brian Dunn and
Julian Thomas exploring both the pricing and cost dimensions of Sustainable
Margin
Improvement (SMI) with a focus on what they have found to be critical factors
in
delivering success. To view the on-demand Webcast, please click here. The
presentation slides and polling results are also available for download.

Many organisations do not exercise adequate controls and scrutiny over their
procurement process leaving themselves open to abuse and override, with
products or
services paid for delivered partially or not at all. The current economic
conditions mean that it is more important than ever to look at this area as a
means of
reducing financial loss and channelling these funds into critical operations.
Over 460 consumer markets executives from around the world attended the KPMG
webcast to discuss this issue in detail. On the webcast our panel provided
valuable
insights on key procurement fraud risks, leading anti-fraud procurement
practices and cross-departmental approaches to help combat potential
procurement fraud.
