Basware bolsters C-suite leadership, expanding Invoice Lifecycle Management expertise to address market trade tariffs
As global economic turbulence persists – with Goldman Sachs recently forecasting a 45% chance of a U.S. recession this year – cost optimization has become a priority for CFOs once again. Rising pressures from volatile trade tariffs to e-invoicing mandates are compounding the urgency for finance transformation.

Against this backdrop, finance leaders are in the midst of complex and costly SAP S/4 HANA migrations, forcing them to rethink their approach to finance operations. Legacy Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) systems alone cannot meet today’s demands, and CFOs are increasingly turning to specialist Invoice Lifecycle Management providers to fill critical gaps in their core ERP systems and future-proof their operations.

These ERP upgrades can cost large enterprises from tens of millions to hundreds of millions of dollars depending on complexity and number of users, as well as years of implementation time. As a result, it’s critical to gain complete control over all invoices, everywhere – driving demand for AI-powered Invoice Lifecycle Management platforms that integrate seamlessly into ERP environments.
