Case Study: Blaenau Gwent Council achieves greater AP control and profitability with FISCAL Technologies

Blaenau Gwent Council achieves greater control and profitability with FISCAL’s forensic solution

Blaenau Gwent Council, a local authority processing over 110,000 invoices annually, faced significant pressure to pay suppliers quickly while preventing costly errors and fraud. To gain greater control over its accounts payable processes, the council sought a sophisticated, budget-conscious solution to integrate with its existing financial systems and turned to FISCAL Technologies for its forensic solution.

Implementing FISCAL's forensic software provided the AP team with powerful tools for continuous monitoring and in-depth analysis of invoice and supplier data. The solution delivered immediate and measurable results, identifying duplicate payments that more than covered its own cost within the first four weeks. The council achieved increased control, reduced risk, and ensured timely, error-free processing, saving thousands of pounds and protecting its working capital.
