Employee's time is not free
So often human nature is to simply put up with suboptimal systems or processes, as it’s just easier to go with the flow rather than create extra work in the short term to review, assess and implement new options.
This is certainly true in the glamorous realms of IFRS 16 lease accounting, where many finance departments accept their lease accounting solution is not perfect, but they feel they don’t have the time or budget to change it.
However, when the opportunity cost of the days taken to complete their IFRS 16 process every month are factored in, it can quickly be seen it's costing considerable employee time, which is not free!
For this webinar we were joined by:
- Pavan Yanamandra from Perenti, one of the world’s largest mining service companies.
- Zubair Khan from Vulcan, a leading metals distributor across Australia and New Zealand.
During the webinar they shared some practical tips and examples from the steps they took to transition to a more optimised and streamlined IFRS 16 process using our LOIS lease accounting software.
