As part of our investigation into why early accounts payable (AP) automation wins do not translate into gains at scale, we begin with the porblem itself. Most AP automation initiatives deliver clear benefits early on. Invoice capture improves, manual data entry is reduced and approval workflows become faster and more visible. Challenges usually begin later, when organizations try to expand automation across more suppliers, regions, currencies and types of spend. At that point, many teams notice the same pattern. Automation continues to operate, but the additional value expected from scale does not materialize. Exceptions grow faster than invoice volume. Manual…

China and the United States are developing technology for both artificial intelligence (AI) and uncrewed aircraft systems (UASs). Both countries will be able to fill the demand in other countries for these systems. AI and UAS technologies, particularly those with dual uses, are advancing with increasing speed, but export controls lag. This deficiency in regulations can stifle appropriate national security, industry autonomy—and thus technological advances—and coordinated integration of the two technologies. In this report, authors review current export control systems for AI and UASs, examine their effectiveness, and consider how the United States could form a balanced system of export…
