Case Study: Astotel automates invoice verification and saves time with Phacet

How does Astotel automate invoice verification

Astotel, a Parisian hotel group with 18 properties, faced the significant operational challenge of manually verifying that invoice prices matched their negotiated contracts. This time-consuming process, managed by the procurement lead with Excel and PDFs, was prone to human error and led to costly price discrepancies for items like food products across different hotels. They turned to the vendor Phacet and its AI tool to automate this invoice verification.

The solution from Phacet automatically identified pricing anomalies by comparing invoices against negotiated price lists. This implementation had an immediate impact, saving the procurement lead up to two hours of work daily and up to two days per month. For a single supplier, Phacet helped uncover nearly €5,000 in annual billing errors, leading to substantial cost savings and a more secure, efficient procurement process for the entire hotel group.
