The awards will be presented during a ceremony on November 15 at the Marriott Evergreen Conference Resort in Stone Mountain, Georgia, which is also the site of the conference. This marquee event will celebrate jury-selected top performers in both captive and outsourced environments.

Award categories and the respective nominees include:

Elliot H. Clark, Chairman and CEO of Outsourcing Today, publishers of FAO Today and HRO Today magazines, commented, “We’ve had an overwhelming response to our request for nominations. The jury is considering these entries, and we’re looking forward to recognizing the efforts of both nominees and the winners at the awards ceremony on the 15th.” He continued, “The noteworthy momentum of the finance and procurement business process segment makes it one of the fastest growing and, given its proven cost-savings, highly desirable. Consistent with our stance as the leader in creating thought leadership to define rapidly emerging categories, we’re pleased to be taking a primary role in this event.”

More About the Conference

Globalization of back-office finance and procurement processes offers compelling opportunities to sharply reduce costs and improve services; however, many organizations are stumped by the complexities of how to make it happen. ONE: The Finance and Procurement Globalization Conference brings together Fortune 1000 thought and action leaders who will share money-saving experiences through a series of sessions on shared services, operating megatrends, insourcing, outsourcing and other topics related to financial and procurement operations.

Among the featured speakers are Dr. Bruce Piasecki, author of World, Inc.: When It Comes to Solutions-Both Local and Global-Businesses Are Now More Powerful Than Government; Jesse Cates, vice president, Shared Services and Finance Transformation, Corning Incorporated; Joanna Reynolds, senior vice president, Finance, Marsh, Inc.; Michael Lipson, executive vice president, Capmark; and Manish Sahai, vice president Service Network Partners, American Express.

This is the only conference especially designed for those professionals – such as CFOs, COOs, and controllers – who are charged with controls and savings in Finance and Procurement operations. Certified Public Accountants (CPAs) attending this conference can earn CPE credits.
