Case Study: Bunge Brazil achieves up to 30% cost savings and 50% fewer AP FTEs with OpenText Vendor Invoice Management for SAP Solutions

Bunge Brazil streamlines accounts payable operations with automated invoice management

Bunge Brazil, the South American arm of global agribusiness Bunge Limited, needed to centralize back‑office functions into a shared service center and overcome partially outsourced, manual accounts payable (AP) processes that were slow, error‑prone and resource intensive across more than 100 sites.

Using OpenText Vendor Invoice Management and Invoice Capture Center for SAP Solutions, Bunge automated invoice capture, routing and approvals with deep SAP integration and RPA. The deployment centralized processing, enabling about 12,000 invoices per month with 50% fewer FTEs, delivered 20–30% cost savings, cut AP resource needs by half, accelerated approval/payment cycles by ~20% and raised on‑time payments from 78% to nearly 97%.
