Case Study: Church Community Housing Corporation achieves faster, more efficient payables with Bill.com

Housing Non-Profit CCHC Saves Up to 20 Hours a Week on Payables

Church Community Housing Corporation (CCHC) is a Rhode Island nonprofit focused on building safe, affordable housing, but its finance team was bogged down by decades-old, paper-based payables processes. Before Bill.com, invoices were handled manually, checks were printed and routed for approval, and payments could take 5–7 business days, adding administrative strain and costly transaction fees.

By implementing Bill.com for accounts payable and payments, CCHC automated invoice handling, streamlined approvals, and integrated smoothly with Sage 50. The result was faster payments within 24 hours, less manual work, and stronger vendor relationships. Bill.com helped CCHC save 10–20 hours per week on payables and reduce the burden of high transaction costs, allowing the team to focus more on its housing mission.
