Approximately 2% to less than 1% error rate. (Utility) Per Invoice Cost 85% Average cost was $75~$100 per invoice (mostly non-po invoices.) New costs $12~15/invoice (Financial Services) Inquiries 50% Decrease of supplier calls by 50% because suppliers are able to have visibility to real-time invoice status (Pharmaceuticals) Discounts 1-2% 1-2% additional supplier payment discount from on-time/early payment. (oil and gas) FTE Reduction 83% we experienced a dramatic increase in process efficiencies which enabled a reduction of accounts payable headcount from 12 to two, freeing up those resources for more strategic projects within the department. (government sector) ROI < 1 year Based on 50% spend capture, expected to have savings on elimination (reduction) of overpayment (duplicate payments). Process efficiency of staff and even reduction of staff from reduced supplier inquiries. Will achieve ROI in one year. (Retail) reduction of # of checks to suppliers.
