E-invoicing has been a topic of discussion for years. However, the issue will take on greater urgency in 2026. While many organizations initially viewed it primarily as a way to process invoices more quickly, it is now increasingly becoming a prerequisite for operating in a compliant, scalable, and future-proof manner. This is due to European regulations, VAT digitization, and technological standardization. The direction is clear: financial processes are becoming increasingly digital, and invoice data is becoming increasingly important. As a result, waiting to see what happens is no longer a smart strategy.

Employees who first pay for lunch, a hotel stay, or a train trip out of their own pocket and then submit a reimbursement claim. For years, this was the standard practice in many organizations. Nowadays, more and more companies are opting for corporate payment cards—whether physical or digital—that allow employees to make business-related purchases directly. That may seem like a minor change, but the impact on the expense-claims process is greater than you might think. Because although the need to pay expenses up front is being phased out, proper processing of expense claims remains essential.

Procurement in the healthcare sector often takes place under time pressure. Departments need something, suppliers deliver, and the paperwork follows. The process keeps moving forward, but the big picture is often missing. This is precisely where data-driven procurement makes a difference—not by adding more work, but by making smarter use of existing information.

For many organizations, the purchase-to-pay process is an essential yet often underestimated part of their administrative operations. From purchase requests to invoice processing and payment, a well-designed purchase-to-pay process ensures clarity, efficiency, and control. In practice, however, bottlenecks frequently arise that hinder growth and efficient operations. It is precisely during the exploratory phase—when organizations are considering how to optimize their administrative processes—that it is important to have a clear understanding of these challenges within the purchase-to-pay process. Where do the biggest problems arise, and what impact do they have on your organization?

The pressure on administrative processes in the healthcare sector continues to grow. Think of invoices, claims, patient documents, and contracts that come in every day. Many organizations are therefore looking for ways to work smarter and more efficiently. In that search, you’ll quickly come across the term IDP. But what exactly is IDP, and why does it play such an important role in healthcare projects?

The pressure on healthcare organizations has been mounting for years. Budgets are under strain, demand for care is growing, and at the same time, processes are becoming increasingly complex. Given this reality, it is becoming increasingly important to gain control over spending—not just after the fact, but specifically in advance and during the process. Spend analytics plays a crucial role in this. But what exactly is spend analytics, and how does it help healthcare organizations make better decisions? In this blog, you’ll discover how to use data to control costs and drive strategic decisions.

For many finance departments, the end of the quarter is a recurring peak period. Invoices must be processed, entries checked, VAT returns prepared, and reports drawn up. If processes are not optimally organized during the quarter, work piles up in the final weeks. However, closing the books at the end of the quarter doesn’t have to be a stressful sprint. With the right processes and smart support, you can spread the workload, reduce errors, and deliver reliable figures faster. In this blog, you can read how to make your quarterly closing more efficient and manageable.

A well-designed procurement process is more important than ever for many organizations. The amount of data is growing, supplier relationships are becoming more complex, and finance and procurement teams have less and less time for manual administrative tasks. At the same time, organizations want more control over costs, contracts, obligations, and risks. However, in practice, the procurement process is often fragmented. Information is scattered across mailboxes, PDFs, spreadsheets, or folders. Contracts disappear from view and invoices are still checked manually. This makes it difficult to work more efficiently and base decisions on reliable data. More and more organizations are therefore looking at how they can organize their procurement process more intelligently. In this blog, you can read how to do this digitally, which technological developments are changing the process, and how you can benefit from this.

Every day, organizations process large quantities of documents: invoices, order confirmations, contracts, and other administrative documents. Although these documents are increasingly being received digitally, they are often still processed manually. This takes time, increases the risk of errors, and makes processes less predictable. Intelligent Document Processing (IDP) helps to make document processing smarter and more efficient. Not by simply reading text, but by actually understanding documents. What exactly is IDP, what does it offer, and what do you need to take into account?

Intermediaries play an increasingly important role in bringing together clients and independent professionals. At the same time, there is growing attention for transparency, fiscal responsibility, and proper administrative organization. In this area of tension, three-party invoicing, also known as pure mediation, is increasingly emerging as an invoicing model. In this blog, you will discover what three-party invoicing entails, how it relates to self-billing and intermediary invoicing, and how you can keep control of your work and risks with a well-designed administrative process.

In many organizations, keeping track of business expenses is a time-consuming task. Receipts get lost, expense reports are submitted late, and there is a lack of overview. Still, it is precisely those small payments, from travel expenses to office supplies, that form an important part of the total expenditure pattern. More and more companies are therefore looking for ways to improve their spend management. Not only to save costs, but also to automate processes, reduce errors, and gain real-time insight into spending.

The flexible use of non-salaried personnel, such as self-employed professionals, freelancers, and temporary workers, is becoming increasingly common in healthcare, education, and childcare. It allows organizations to respond quickly to peaks in demand or staff shortages. At the same time, it can make administration more complex and costs less predictable. In this blog, you can read how to maintain control over non-salaried staff, organize processes more efficiently, and maintain transparency, so that flexible deployment becomes a strength rather than a risk.

The end of the fiscal year is approaching. For finance and procurement departments, this often means a peak period: extra invoices, tight deadlines, and a lot of checking work. But closing the books doesn’t have to be a race against the clock. With good preparation and a smart approach, you can make the process clearer and less prone to errors. Below are eight tips to help you close out 2025 smoothly and get 2026 off to a good start.
