Case Study: Vets Pets achieves a profit center by eliminating AP bottlenecks with AvidXchange

How AP Automation Took One Finance Department from Bottleneck to Profit Center

Vets Pets, a veterinary practice management company, faced a tedious, paper-based accounts payable process that slowed growth. Blair Myers, VP of Finance and Accounting, was signing roughly 60 checks a week, relying on Post‑it notes and mailings that created an accounting bottleneck as the business added new hospitals.

They implemented AvidXchange (AvidStrongroom and AvidPay) integrated with Sage Intacct, gaining automated invoice capture, approvals, payments and invoice attachments directly in their ERP. The seamless rollout enabled approval limits, on‑invoice comments and remote review, eliminated paper/stamp costs and the need for additional headcount, accelerated vendor payments, and turned AP from a bottleneck into a profit center.
