AI-POWERED CASH-FLOW REENGINEERING MODEL
For B2B Companies Seeking Resilience, Agility & Growth in 2025+
🎯 Goal:
Transform your cash flow from reactive reporting to proactive, AI-enhanced decision-making—boosting free cash flow, shortening cycles, and creating real-time liquidity intelligence.
⚙️ Core Framework: The 5 Levers of AI-Driven Cash-Flow Reengineering
| Lever | Traditional Approach | AI Reengineering |
|---|---|---|

| 2. Payables | Human scheduling, arbitrary payment windows | AI-optimized payment timing based on cash forecasts & vendor terms |
| 3. Inventory | Periodic reviews, gut-based orders | AI-powered demand forecasting, automated replenishment models |
| 4. Pricing & Revenue Recognition | Static pricing, spreadsheet-driven forecasts | AI dynamic pricing engines, revenue simulation based on customer behavior |
| 5. Forecasting & Planning | Lagging reports, siloed data | Real-time cash visibility, rolling forecasts, AI scenario modeling |
