The new role of finance: Balancing mind and machine
A spend-analysis machine (SAM), compiles and classifies
millions of financial transactions and gets smarter the more
data it processes.
SAM finds optimization opportunities and makes timely
recommendations—such as how much you could save by
taking advantage of volume discounts—enabling you to make
decisions on negotiations and spending to realize savings.

38. If you’re making decisions, trusting data shouldn’t be
holding you back. What you should be thinking about is
how to frame the problem, how you can take advantage
of the available data that’s out there, and what the
strengths and weaknesses are of the approaches to use
the data.
