WNS and Uniqus helped the client navigate the complexities of financial and accounting system integration, including the design of new business processes with the proper standards and controls. This solution spanned multiple F&A towers including Order-to-Cash (O2C), Procure-to-Pay (P2P), and Supply Chain Management (SCM), and was deployed across five entities in 31 countries.
