Story Behind the Curve
The quantity of invoices we pay for the goods and services we purchase varies from around 110 to 200 per month. The quantity depends mainly on the level of activities performed by our service deliver teams.
Partners
We have a wide range of suppliers from whom we purchase goods and services. We have credit agreements which enable us to gain maximum time for invoice payment. This helps optimise our cash flow and maximises interest earning capacity.
What Works
A strong set of financial policies and procedures, a delegations of authority policy and good relationships with suppliers all contribute to effective accounts payable management.
Action Plan
Our Finance Officer has a current workplan, checked monthly in supervision meetings and allied to Hepatitis NSW's current Business Plan. Our accounts payable systems and practice are checked quarterly by the CEO and Board Treasurer. Policies and procedures are reviewed annually.
