REL Launches Cash Flow Forecasting Study: Where Does Your Company Stand?

MIAMI & LONDON, October 12, 2012 - A new complimentary study launched by REL, a division of The Hackett Group, Inc. (NASDAQ: HCKT), is designed to help companies compare their cash forecasting practices with top performers.

Forecasting cash positions and cash needs continues to be an issue for most organizations. Given the current volatility and uncertainty in the markets, it becomes all the more important for companies to forecast their cash requirements as accurately as possible. By participating in REL's newly-launched Operating Cash Flow Forecasting study, companies can find out how their performance in forecasting operating cash flow compares with other organizations.

By participating in this study, companies will learn:

  • Key drivers of cash flow uncertainty and volatility today;
  • Best practices to accurately forecast cash flow;
  • Major investment areas for cash forecasting improvements;
  • And top metrics for measuring cash forecasting effectiveness

Study participants will receive composite research results and a white paper that will discuss key findings from the research. This study is the go-to guide for cash flow forecasting. REL's Operating Cash Flow Forecasting Study is open until late October, at no cost to participants, a $30,000 value.

All responses will remain completely confidential and will be used only in combination with those of other study respondents to develop a composite picture.
