Case Study: Hall & Wilcox achieves streamlined expense and invoice automation, saving 20+ hours per month, with Emburse (Chrome River)

Hall & Wilcox needed a solution that could automate mundane AP tasks and give employees more time for more meaningful work

Hall & Wilcox, a 750‑employee Australian law firm, faced inefficient, manual expense and invoice processes that lacked integration with its financial system (Aderant). The firm needed a cloud-based, mobile-friendly solution with daily credit card feeds, automatic receipt matching, OCR and rules-based workflows to eliminate duplicate data checks and manual validations. They selected Emburse’s Chrome River expense and invoice solution to meet these needs.

Emburse implemented Chrome River with Aderant integration, daily card feeds, Snap & Send/OCR, automated approval and compliance rules, plus Pre‑Approval and Purchase Order controls. The solution streamlined expense and invoice submission and approvals (including email approvals), enabled remote work, improved compliance and eliminated duplicate-data risk, and saved the finance team more than 20 hours per month while allowing the firm to handle higher volumes without added headcount.
