Case Study: Feu Vert achieves a 6-day reduction in invoice processing time with Esker's cloud-based AP automation

Reducing Invoice Processing Time By Six Days With Cloud-Based Automation

Feu Vert, a European leader in automobile equipment and maintenance with 462 stores and over 2,200 suppliers, struggled with a largely manual accounts payable process that consumed time and resources. The company sought to improve productivity, increase on-time payments, strengthen supplier relationships and free staff to focus on higher-value work.

By implementing Esker’s cloud-based AP automation integrated with its Sage ERP, Feu Vert eliminated most manual data entry and enabled 88% of invoices to be processed without human intervention. Results included a six-day reduction in invoice processing time (from 17 to 11 days), better invoice traceability, the ability to absorb a 15% increase in invoice volume, higher AP confirmation rates, and improved staff productivity and supplier relationships.
