Esker has signed an agreement worth approximately $US300,000 with one of Asia’s leading airlines to implement end-to-end vendor invoice automation. As the first cloud-based solution to be deployed at the company, the Esker Accounts Payable on Demand solution will deliver improved process and business efficiencies.

As part of its commitment to continuous improvement and being a pioneering technology adopter, the airline was looking to optimise document processes and automate accounts payable.

Its priority was to implement an on-demand automation solution that could seamlessly integrate with its ERP, require little to no resources on their end, had a solid track record with other regional customers involved in shared services, and featured a template-free recognition technology capable of identifying content from different invoice formats. Esker met the company’s detailed criteria and will begin implementing the solution immediately, with plans for project delivery in early 2013.

“Winning this project is significant for Esker to further establish our presence in the Asian region, particularly with a company that is so committed to innovation and customer satisfaction,” said Jean-Michel Bérard, CEO at Esker.
