Case Study: Stinson Morrison Hecker achieves paperless, automated accounts payable and major staff reductions with Emburse (Chrome River INVOICE)

Stinson Morrison Hecker - Customer Case Study

Stinson Morrison Hecker, a 300+ attorney law firm, faced a fully manual, paper-based accounts payable process that relied on clerical data entry and hand-carried approvals. Seeking a paperless solution to enforce firm policies, improve reporting and vendor spend visibility, and streamline approvals, the firm selected Emburse’s INVOICE automation to replace their time‑intensive, error‑prone workflow.

Emburse implemented INVOICE in a two‑phase rollout with built‑in routing rules, training, and integration with existing systems, achieving firm‑wide go‑live in eight weeks. The solution eliminated about 46,000 sheets of paper and 18 boxes of annual storage, enabled invoice tracking from entry through payment, cut data‑entry time within two weeks, and reduced AP staffing from seven employees plus a supervisor to one employee—delivering faster approvals, better reporting, and significant cost and headcount savings.
