Five Guys will achieve rapid ROI through tangible operational savings:
- Automated processes through intelligent data acquisition, capture, extraction, and coding of invoice data from any format
- Improved visibility into utility bill management performance and insights into opportunities for improvements and savings
- Validated, trustworthy data and automated identification of billing errors and usage outliers
- Mitigated risk of late fees and opportunity for early-pay discounts with streamlined approval workflows and notifications
- Scalable automation capabilities that will continue to support Five Guys as they grow and expand
“We chose Goby’s cloud-based technology suite for its sophisticated utility bill management process, which will replace the time-consuming, manual tasks our accounts payable team members previously dealt with,” says Larry Hart, V.P. Finance and Accounting at Five Guys. “This will empower our team with trustworthy data and allow them to focus more on value-add projects; their user-friendly interface will increase productivity and visibility into our utility bill management processes, dramatically transforming our utility bill process and reporting capabilities.”
