“Sargent and Spectrum Digital shared a common goal of reducing manual efforts, ensuring reliability, and enhancing the overall customer experience.”
Objective
With an increased volume of purchase invoices being processed manually over two sites, Sargent were looking for an automated solution that would not only take up less of their time but ensure a reliable and accurate service. Recognising the need for a streamlined and efficient process, Sargent forged a strategic partnership with Spectrum driven by the shared goal of reducing manual efforts, ensuring reliability, and ultimately enhancing the overall customer experience.
Challenges
- Manual input, labour-intensive processes.
- Too much time taken processing invoices.
- Business is split over two sites.
The Solution
After an evaluation of Sargent’s current software, the solution to their issues became clear to Spectrum Digital.
In implementing an Accounts Payable automation process through the integration of IRIS and Therefore software into Sargent’s Sage 200 finance systems has allowed the company to capture, extract and match invoice data in a timely and accurate manner.
This streamlined approach has saved time and enhanced their financial operations, allowing Sargent to allocate resources more effectively and focus on delivering exceptional service to their customers.
