Key Findings & Highlights:
This NelsonHall vendor assessment analyzes WNSs offerings and capabilities in F&A BPS and transformation.
WNS is one of the consistent market leaders in providing F&A BPS, and more recently F&A operations transformation, to the mid-market. The company was one of the first to stress the vertical nuances of finance & accounting and include its F&A delivery personnel within a vertical, rather than horizontal, practice.
In recent years, the company has turned its attention to business transformation, developing WNS TRAC to introduce greater levels of technology and automation into business processes and specifically WNS CFO TRAC to address the need for finance transformation.
WNS is looking to extend the upstream/downstream integration within each of the traditional F&A outsourcing service lines, moving from procure-to-pay to source-to-pay, from order-to-cash to quote-to-sustain, and from record-to-report to record-to-analyze
WNS offers the following capabilities in support of finance transformation:
- Outperforming CFO Framework, providing transformation frameworks & models, and repositories & compendiums
- Financial Intelligence in a Box, including analytics powered by AI/ML/NLP and "New Age Advanced Analytics". The former covers risk & audit analytics, working capital analytics, T&E analytics, duplicates analysis, and text analytics and the latter covers journal entry analytics, reconciliation analytics, phonetic duplicates, and forecasting
- Digital Automation, covering access to WNS's digital ecosystem and hyper automation capability.
