“For one of the largest equipment rental companies in the USA, we automated their Accounts Payable process using our proprietary IQR technology, so invoices got automatically processed within minutes instead of days, with 99.97% accuracy.”
State-of-the-Art Financial Process Automation Technology
Despite Increased Utilization of Accounting Software, Productivity in Accounting Operations for Most Companies Has Remained Stagnant.
Benchmarks for the cost of Finance and Accounting as a percentage of revenue have improved for very large firms (over $9 Billion in revenue). However, for everybody else – large ($1B to $9B), mid-sized ($100m to $1B) and small firms (< $100m), there has been no improvement.
How Do the Very Largest Companies Achieve this Kind of Performance?
The top quartile companies have been able to invest in 5 key areas for process improvement:
- Outsourcing / Offshoring
- Process Reengineering
- Automation
- Best Practices
- System Consolidation
And, as a result, these companies perform their back office processes with 60% lower cost while improving all key metrics of timeliness, quality, and service levels!
Unfortunately for most large and mid-sized companies, investing in these initiatives generally does not have a positive ROI because the investment is high while the volumes of transactions are relatively low. You would not build your own data center because it does not make economic sense, so why would you build common processes like Accounts Payable?
In our analysis of over 50 implementations of AP automation software, we did not find a single case where the implementation had a positive ROI. It was rare to find any decrease in AP department staff and often the performance of the process got worse. In the most extreme example from a large national law firm, we found they had a negative 57% ROI on their investment.
