Case Study: Network of Community Ministries cuts AP processing time by 90% with Bill.com

Network of Community Ministries cuts payment processing time by 90% with BILL

Network of Community Ministries, a Texas nonprofit serving more than 32,000 people each year, was struggling with paper-based financial processes as community demand grew. Its small finance team, led by CFO Lee Ann Mills, was spending too much time handling vendor payments, rent assistance checks, and expense paperwork instead of focusing on strategic work. The organization needed a faster, more scalable way to manage accounts payable and expenses, and turned to Bill.com’s BILL platform.

Bill.com implemented BILL Accounts Payable and Spend & Expense for Network of Community Ministries, along with integration to QuickBooks Online Advanced. The results were dramatic: manual payment processing dropped from about 20 hours a week to less than a couple of hours, cutting AP time by 90%. Bill.com also helped improve visibility, speed approvals on the go, simplify receipt capture, and make budget reallocation easier, allowing the nonprofit to respond more quickly to urgent community needs.
