Case Study: Barwon Coast achieves faster, more controlled invoice processing with ProSpend

How ProSpend allowed him and his team save time, and gain better visibility and control

Barwon Coast, a committee managing a coastline in Victoria, Australia, needed to address inefficient invoice entry and approval processes. Their manual workflows were costly and consumed excessive time from both the finance team and managers, hindering their mission to reinvest revenue into protecting the natural environment. This challenge led them to seek a solution from vendor ProSpend.

By implementing the ProSpend expense management platform, Barwon Coast automated its accounts payable processes. This provided better visibility and control over invoicing and budgeting for managers. The solution had a measurable impact, roughly halving the finance team's time spent on accounts payable and freeing up staff to take on additional responsibilities like payroll. Barwon Coast also plans to adopt ProSpend's Virtual Cards to further increase efficiency and control.
