The City seeks to identify an accounts payable automation solution to enhance the efficiency of a centralized AP division responsible for manually processing approximately 36,000 invoices annually across more than 20 departments. The options would streamline invoice manual data entry, reduce manual errors, accelerate processing times, while also maintaining accuracy and compliance with organizational policies. The options should be able to integrate seamlessly with PeopleSoft, the City’s existing ERP software, provide robust reporting and audit capabilities, and offer features including but not limited to enhanced security measures to prevent fraud and duplicate payments. The ultimate goal is to improve workflow efficiency, reduce manual entry errors, reduce operational costs, and support the organization's financial management objectives.
