Session Descriptions
Days Sales Outstanding (DSO): Getting Paid Faster Without Losing Customers
Getting paid faster is imperative to maintaining liquidity. This session explores practical, treasury-relevant levers to improve Days Sales Outstanding (DSO), the average number of days it takes a company to collect payment and strengthen liquidity by reducing bottlenecks in the order-to-cash cycle, emphasizing approaches such as payment optimization and AR automation. Speakers will also highlight how DSO impacts working capital accessibility and resilience, especially in uncertain conditions when steady cash flow matters more than ever.
Learning Objectives:
- Identify what a rising DSO signals about cash flow and operational friction and address best ways to identify and benchmark.
- Apply strategies to improve payment optimization, AR automation, smarter credit/collections strategies, and faster cash applications.

Days Payable Outstanding (DPO): Paying Strategically to Optimize Terms Without Breaking Supplier Relationships
Balancing internal liquidity goals with the health of vendors and operational continuity is a challenge for organizations. This session focuses on how organizations think about Days Payable Outstanding (DPO) in the context of working capital optimization—balancing internal liquidity goals with vendor health and operational continuity. We’ll connect DPO decisions to the broader objective of optimizing the cash conversion cycle (DSO, DIO, DPO) and the practical realities of extending terms and coordinating across treasury, procurement, and supply chain.
Learning Objectives:
- Understand how DPO fits into the cash conversion cycle and how best to benchmark.
- Connect working capital performance to cross-functional operating models and collaboration.

One Source of Truth: Building a Working Capital Dashboard Everyone Can Use
An effective working capital dashboard creates a shared, consistent view of liquidity drivers—bringing treasury, finance, and operating partners onto the same page.

Attendees will explore how accessible, well‑governed dashboards move working capital conversations from periodic reporting to continuous management.
Learning Objectives:
- Implement a practical framework for structuring a working capital dashboard around core metrics so stakeholders see balances, drivers and trends.
- Apply the key principles for designing actionable and adoptable dashboards that optimize visibility across treasury, FP&A, and operations to support ongoing tracking and accountability.
