Case Study: EcoLube Recovery achieves streamlined accounts payable and audit-ready purchase orders with ProcurementExpress.com

How ProcurementExpress.com has Streamlined EcoLube Recovery’s AP Process

EcoLube Recovery (ELR), an environmental services company that re-refines used oil and recently expanded into construction work, faced significant AP pain from having no formal PO process—employees submitted orders by email, verbally, or spreadsheet—forcing Accounts Payable specialist Julia Harper to print backup POs, search for old emails and hard copies, and spend excessive time matching invoices. To solve this, ELR implemented ProcurementExpress.com, a cloud-based purchase-order system.

ProcurementExpress.com delivered a searchable, permanent PO archive, role-based permissions and approval controls, in-app comments and notifications, and project/cost coding options. The vendor’s solution eliminated routine printing, streamlined invoice matching and corrections, enabled weekly audit reviews instead of ad-hoc chasing, and centralized all POs in one place; ELR now issues all POs through ProcurementExpress.com and plans to adopt its budgeting features to track project costs in real time.
