Purchasing and Invoice Processing Software supplier Verian has announced a new deployment in Australia with an implementation at Southern Cross Care (SA & NT) Inc. the largest aged care provider in South Australia and Northern Territory with a turnover of $A140 million, 1,300 aged care beds and 1,000 independent living units.

Verian’s cloud-based solutions for Purchase-to-Pay and budget management were implemented for SCC in under four months in partnership with Dataline Group, allowing SCC to begin capturing and managing organizational spend.

Verian’s solution will support SCC’s initiative to elevate procurement to a more strategic function within the organization and drive savings through greater efficiencies and compliance with supplier contracts.

Facing an uncertain funding environment, SCC is leveraging the cost containment aspects of the Verian solution to:

• Ensure impeccable stewardship of all funding
• Track all spending and negotiate better contracts to find new ways to save money
• Develop a function to champion cost-savings behaviour across the organization

“Verian’s in-depth knowledge of P2P has proven tremendously valuable to us,” said Antony Pivato, Director of Finance at SCC. “Through their expertise, we are making our funding go further with a system that our users find easy and intuitive.”

Dataline worked with SCC throughout the buying cycle and will continue to provide on-the-ground support and availability. Verian has worked with Dataline to serve customers in the Australian market for three years.
