Company Overview
A large U.S.-based utility provider serves more than 600,000 customers and manages a broad network of vendors that support critical operations. This results in a high volume of invoices processed through the Accounts Payable function.
The Challenge
Manual processing burden
Invoice cycle times extended up to 8–9 weeks
Inconsistent formats
Hundreds of vendors using different invoice structures
Low extraction reliability
Existing systems failed to capture key data fields consistently
Operational inefficiency
Heavy reliance on manual entry and validation
The Solution
CEI implemented an AI-driven invoice processing solution using Azure-based OCR and document intelligence capabilities. The system automatically identifies vendors and extracts key invoice data across a wide range of formats. The solution integrates directly into Accounts Payable workflows, eliminating manual input and ensuring consistent handling of vendor invoices.
