Dalla seconda/terza di copertina

As part of the current economic downturn, corporate belts are tightening from coast to coast. Everywhere, controllers, managers, and financial executives are looking for new ways to cut costs–sometimes by just trimming the fat and sometimes by chopping off whole limbs.

Most controllers or financial managers act as the chief cost control force within their companies. Until now, they have operated without a comprehensive source of informed guidance. IOMA′s Cost Reduction and Control Best Practices provides a quick review of the most successful cost control strategies across the entire spectrum of business functions. This detailed resource describes what works best in specific situations and in specific areas of the company.

As opposed to sudden massive cuts, cost reduction should be an ongoing process woven into a company′s corporate fabric. Simple, sometimes small, but precise cuts can help a company avoid sudden and drastic changes in corporate philosophy and direction. This book offers help in cutting costs while also maintaining a rich corporate culture. Within this book, the Institute of Management and Administration (IOMA) has presented the best practices, techniques, and ideas to help controllers, executives, and managers control cost with as little stress and anxiety as possible.

It uses case studies to illustrate the strategies that work across different areas and functions within the organization–from accounting and accounts payable to the mailroom and purchasing.
