The electrical contractor faced inefficiencies in AP invoice processing, relying on manual data entry that cuased errors, delays and high labor costs. Slow processing impacted customer billing and cash flow, while managing thousands of invoices became a massive bottleneck.

Without automation, tracking invoices and matching them to purchase orders was slow and inconsistent, leading to delayed financial close cycles and increased costs. As invoice volumes grew, the company needed a scalable solution to streamline AP and improve efficiency.

The solution used AI-powered optical character recognition (OCR) and machine learning to extract key invoice details, such as vendor names, amounts, and due dates, automatically matching them to purchase orders.

Automated workflows routed invoices for approvals, reducing delays and eliminating manual data entry. Additionally, the system provided real-time tracking and exception handling, ensuring accuracy while streamlining the entire AP process—from ingestion to payment.
