Behind an intervention, there is a whole chain of involved parties, but in all cases, the final step is the billing. A central element that will close the case. With small SMEs on one side and large international manufacturers on the other, how can this transaction, which also includes a notion of performance, be carried out in an optimal way? Here are our 3 tips for efficient and agile billing management.<\/strong><\/p>\n

1) Prepare the billing process in advance<\/h3>\n

Invoicing is often a source of stress for the contractor<\/strong> when this step is not treated as a key part of the process. It is not just a payment, whether or not linked to a performance report, the invoice is the document that notifies the end of a project.<\/strong> It is an opportunity for the various parties involved to bring an intervention to a serene close. Therefore, it is important to ensure that all relevant documents are present<\/strong>. By adding an intermediate step<\/strong> between the end of the repair and the invoicing, we allow everyone to evaluate their actions, to check the information, to exchange on a subject in a context of trust<\/strong> on the basis of a transfer of information. At Agoragroup, all of our warranty reports include, prior to the billing process, an intelligent verification system<\/strong> to reduce billing disputes.<\/p>\n

2) Choose transparency in billing<\/h3>\n

By favouring transparency on invoicing elements<\/strong> and in particular on the notions of performance, manufacturers develop a relationship of trust with the technical stations. Indeed, it is essential that billing is clear and legible for all parties involved<\/strong> in order to improve performance and reduce conflicts. At Agoragroup, we offer the same visibility for the manufacturer and the repairer.<\/strong> We encourage a collaboration based on continuous improvement and a fluid relationship.<\/strong><\/p>\n

3) Adapt intelligently to the business reality<\/h3>\n

Volume of invoicing does not necessarily mean dehumanisation.It is possible to reconcile digitalisation and personalisation<\/strong>. Billing policy is very often defined at the European level on the manufacturer’s side, which implies incorporating variables depending on the location while respecting norms<\/strong> that ensure standardisation. We have designed tools that allow for this flexibility, as we believe it is essential to take into account the business reality of each technical station.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Billing appears to be a complex aspect, as it is often neglected in IT investments. This element can become a motivational and informative tool<\/strong> in the relationship between manufacturers and technical stations. Our feedback has enabled us to identify areas of concern and to create a secure<\/strong>, yet flexible, framework<\/strong> to generate optimal billing.<\/b><\/p>\n
