A DataServ Case Study
Nidec Motor Corporation, a global manufacturer of motors and control equipment, had grown into a complex organization with over 100,000 employees, 300 subsidiaries, and roughly 6,000 suppliers. In 2005, the company was manually keying at least 85% of its invoices across multiple ERP systems, creating heavy labor demands, paper-intensive processes, and difficulty maintaining accurate vendor information. Nidec turned to DataServ for an accounts payable automation solution.
DataServ implemented its Invoice Processing Machine and AutoVouch™ pre-ERP three-way match solution to automate invoice capture, matching, and approval workflows. The results included 99.9% invoice data capture accuracy, about 82.5% touchless invoice processing, elimination of manual data entry labor, and improved visibility, compliance, and payment punctuality. DataServ also helped Nidec standardize and scale AP processes across organizational changes and decentralization, freeing the AP team to focus on higher-value work.
