Case Study: City of Cleburne achieves streamlined AP, saves time and $18.3K with Corpay One

The City of Cleburne rises with the tide of modern payments to upgrade its labor-intensive AP workflow

The City of Cleburne, a municipality running Tyler Tech‑Incode with a four‑person AP team, was overwhelmed by a labor‑intensive paper‑check process—hand‑signing roughly 200 checks per week and performing duplicate manual work. To round out its AP automation strategy and speed supplier payments, the City of Cleburne engaged Corpay One for electronic payment processing and payments automation.

Corpay One implemented an electronic payments workflow that lets the team submit weekly invoice batches, obtain real‑time approvals, and deliver secure ACH/credit card payments to suppliers—eliminating wet‑ink signatures and much of the paper handling. The City of Cleburne reported eliminating double‑work and errors, gaining around 3–4 hours/week in staff time, $18,300 in hard cost savings, $53,000 in rebates to date, and improved vendor relationships and reconciliation support from Corpay One.
