BPO Services

What Is Business Process Outsourcing (BPO)?

Business process outsourcing leverages our CTRM-experienced staff to manage complex, routine, or custom tasks for clients. BPO teams have deep process knowledge, ensuring seamless execution of critical services. With decades of expertise, they anticipate and resolve issues efficiently, meeting the toughest challenges in CTRM software.

Client Challenges In Commodity Management Software

Clients typically run into one or more particular issues when running their business. These include three main areas of concern. Now let’s see how BPO meets and overcomes these challenges.

Internal Capacity Restraints

When implementing new processes, in-house teams need additional support to meet goals beyond their current capacity.

Post-Upgrade Communication

BPO facilitates better communication between front, middle, and back office staff during migration to a new server.

Burdensome Routine Tasks

Delegating your routine work to a BPO team allows your in-house talent to handle the most vital CTRM tasks.

How Deep CTRM Experience Makes The BPO Difference

Invoice matching requires deep CTRM expertise for accurate payment matching, beyond just accounting skills. Effective business process outsourcing (BPO) depends on cooperation and mutual understanding, enabling seamless collaboration. With trust, our team becomes an extension of your business.

"With mutual trust and understanding established, our BPO team becomes an extended arm of your business."

Leverage CTRM Business Process Outsourcing for Common, Yet Critical Tasks

Key benefits

Month End Closing

Cash flow issues arise when customers take as many as 20 days to come up with invoices. BPO teams send invoices out faster so they get paid, allowing clients to close out the month with greater peace of mind and more revenue.

Scheduling & Invoicing

Logistics and back-office operations, like EBB scheduling and gas flow nominations, are highly repetitive. A BPO team can manage these tasks and ensure invoices match actual volumes, enhancing CTRM system accuracy.

CTRM & ERP Reconciliation

Commodity trading and risk management companies often use multiple systems for data management. BPO teams excel at cross-platform reconciliations, ensuring data accuracy between sources and destination systems.

Our BPO experts have over 35 years of collective Middle Office and Market Risk experience; they’re ready and able to assist with your Risk Monitoring, Assessment, Reporting, and Mitigation efforts.
