挑战
这家成立于 1977 年的全球制药公司在货运发票验证流程中面临着重大挑战。该公司每月有数百批货物,与其货运代理签订了全球长期价格协议。然而,发票验证过程中的错误正在影响其物流和会计团队的生产力和效率。物流团队必须手动检查每张发票并将其转发给会计和财务部门审批。这个劳动密集型过程涉及一个大型团队,使他们无法专注于更关键的任务。收到的发票中有超过 4% 是重复的,并且完全手动的验证过程使得寻求批准、处理付款以及跟进供应商以获得正确的发票变得极其困难且耗时。该过程很容易出现错误,导致由于未经检查的发票与初始报价不符而导致多付款。发票核对流程也缺乏标准化和透明度。由于缺乏记录发票及其状态的综合存储库,审计过程效率低下且复杂。
关于客户
该客户是一家成立于 1977 年的全球制药公司。该公司是行业领导者,拥有 14 家生产工厂,并在 80 多个国家/地区设有商业机构。该公司专门生产皮肤科、呼吸科和肿瘤科相关产品。该公司每月有数百批货物,与其货运代理签订了全球长期价格协议。该公司的物流和会计团队此前面临着劳动密集型且容易出错的手动发票验证流程。
解决方案
该公司实施了 GoComet 的 GoInvoice 自动发票核对模块,以提高发票验证流程的效率。该解决方案结合使用光学字符识别技术和上下文语言处理,自动将发票与原始报价进行匹配并拒绝重复发票,确保无差错验证。该技术节省了发票处理过程中高达 65% 的时间。当发票和报价不一致时,模块会自动通知供应商,省去了物流和财务团队人工跟进的负担。这使得该公司能够将验证发票所需的 75% 的劳动力转移到其他关键任务上。该模块还根据预定义的容差级别自动批准发票,从而实现更快的批准和更快的付款周期。 GoInvoice 成为一个整合的在线存储库,用于跟踪所有发票和付款。该平台允许用户在每张货运发票上添加时间戳记,从而使审计透明化。该模块还提供分析报告,突出显示供应商在发票准确性、付款周期等方面的整体表现。

Airport SCADA Systems Improve Service Levels
Modern airports are one of the busiest environments on Earth and rely on process automation equipment to ensure service operators achieve their KPIs. Increasingly airport SCADA systems are being used to control all aspects of the operation and associated facilities. This is because unplanned system downtime can cost dearly, both in terms of reduced revenues and the associated loss of customer satisfaction due to inevitable travel inconvenience and disruption.

Vehicle Fleet Analytics
Organizations frequently implement a maintenance strategy for their fleets of vehicles using a combination of time and usage based maintenance schedules. While effective as a whole, time and usage based schedules do not take into account driving patterns, environmental factors, and sensors currently deployed within the vehicle measuring crank voltage, ignition voltage, and acceleration, all of which have a significant influence on the overall health of the vehicle.In a typical fleet, a large percentage of road calls are related to electrical failure, with battery failure being a common cause. Battery failures result in unmet service agreement levels and costly re-adjustment of scheduled to provide replacement vehicles. To reduce the impact of unplanned maintenance, the transportation logistics company was interested in a trial of C3 Vehicle Fleet Analytics.
