IOFM Announces Launch of Game Changer Awards Recognizing Best in Class Financial Operations Solutions
Portland, Maine (PRWEB) November 07, 2016 -- IOFM announced the launch of the Game Changer Awards which recognize best in class financial operations solutions. The new award program honors the top five solutions in the marketplace, making them one of the most coveted and prestigious awards due to their rarity.
The Institute of Finance & Management(IOFM) believes that success in business relies heavily on developing efficient business processes. Successful organizations are continually seeking better automation solutions, and financial operations professionals are always striving to keep up with the latest solutions in the marketplace. To assist members of the AP & P2P community with finding the truly game changing solutions, IOFM created the Game Changer Awards.
The Game Changer Awards showcase companies that provide the most productive and effective technologies and meet the highest standards of design, ease-of-use, and conformance with appropriate accounting standards. Nominations are now open to the public and free to apply. Nominations will be reviewed by a committee and approved based on the applicability of the solution to the financial operations community. The nomination period runs from November 1, 2016 through December 10, 2016. Winners will be determined by popular vote of the public and will commence on January 1, 2017 and end March 31, 2017.
Brian Cuthbert, Executive Director of IOFM, explained how the award programs distinguish stand-out solutions: “The best gauge of a solution is the satisfaction of the customers and users themselves. So the Game Changer Awards turn to the people who know the products best, they get to decide the best of the best.” Cuthbert continued, “We are excited to launch this new awards program and believe it will really help to distinguish the solutions that change businesses for the better.”
Winners of the 2017 Game Changer Awards will be announced at IOFM’s AP & P2P Conference & Expo in May. The AP & P2P Conference & Expo is the largest, most comprehensive event dedicated to Accounts Payable and Procure-to-Pay, bringing together experienced practitioners and innovative strategists to provide an in-depth four-day learning experience. Attendees benefit from proven best practices and tested solutions to the toughest challenges in AP today. With face-to-face time at a premium, The AP & P2P Conference & Expo is the best way for vendors to demonstrate solutions and personally engage a highly targeted audience of AP managers, directors, and supervisors.
The event brings together professionals from across the country to learn about AP and network with peers and experts. The conference’s Spring session will take place at Disney’s Yacht & Beach Club Resorts®, Walt Disney World, Florida May 7th through the 9th, 2017.
