SUCCESS STORY | AP AUTOMATION

Jabil: automating 2 million invoices annually

Jabil is a diversified global electronic manufacturing business with $27.3 billion in revenues and 260,000 employees worldwide. We collaborated with their team to standardize their AP workflows, automate invoice processing, and provide a single real-time view of vendor invoices across 3 shared services centres. As a result, Jabil has achieved over 70% straight-through invoice processing rates for selected vendors, with an average of 40% across all suppliers. The company also reports a saving of 2000 hours generating vendor statements of account annually.

Going digital enabled us to be more flexible and agile... We were able to quickly redirect vendor invoices from one mailbox to another to balance workloads, and we introduced SmartEye cloud invoice capture to reduce the number of paper-based invoices being processed.

SUCCESS STORY | CASH AND LIQUIDITY MANAGEMENT

Krones: Enhanced liquidity planning

The KRONES Group, headquartered in Germany, plans, develops, manufactures, and installs machines and complete lines for the processing, filling, and packaging of beverages and liquid food. When they were planning a transformation from a filling line supplier to a turn-key solution provider they turned to Serrala software for manufacturing companies to help radically improve their liquidity planning. Our solution has allowed KRONES to plan liquidity more accurately, more granularly, and more quickly. Criteria can now be set by the Finance department without IT support, making adapting to new realities easier. Intelligent automation also makes handling high payment volumes simpler – along with scaling to meet growing business volumes. Since they first engaged us in 2007, our progressive updates have helped keep them at the head of the field.

As Serrala constantly develops the portfolio further including new products for the order-to-cash and procure-to-pay cycles, this ensures that the solutions are future- proof and help us with future challenges.
