Case Study: Harshman Phillips achieves cloud-based efficiency and major cost savings with Bill.com

Harshman Phillips - Customer Case Study

Harshman Phillips & Company, LLC is an Atlanta accounting firm founded in 1992 by CPAs Bill Harshman and Bruce Phillips that moved from a traditional paper-based practice to a cloud-first model beginning in 2010. Facing the challenge of modernizing workflows for clients across real estate, construction, restaurants, technology and professional services, the firm sought best-of-breed online platforms and reliable integrations for systems like Sage Peachtree.

They implemented a full-service online solution centered on Bill.com (joining its Peachtree beta) to streamline bill payment, approvals and audits. The change delivered quick results: 23 companies onboarded in five months and the firm is on track to hit 50 clients within a year; one client saved over $100,000 annually by going remote; Phillips now pays roughly 50–75 bills in under 15 minutes, and year-end audits close far faster—“We are very pleased with the outcome of the Peachtree sync that is now available to the general public, the programs really work seamlessly together.”
