Speakers in this session explore how a cross-functional approach to vendor onboarding can align departmental goals, strengthen financial controls, and mitigate payments fraud. This session will highlight how the City of Carlsbad is successfully leveraging this alignment to accelerate its transition to payments while reducing fraud exposure.
