In2 Project Management automates invoice validation for a water corporation using Nanonets
The client, a water corporation spending circa $10 million AUD per year on external maintenance, needed to audit invoice accuracy across 72 invoice formats and 3500 line items per month — a scale that exceeded what manual spreadsheet review could handle, leaving discrepancies undetected.
How it works
Common implementation structure
How this type of workflow is generally built, generalized across documented cases — not tied to any one vendor's stack. Click any stage to read what happens there. Specific products that implement these stages appear in “Tools commonly seen” below.
Stage 1 · Invoice intake from multiple sources
Invoices are received from SAP Ariba System, third-party supplier invoices, and Sharepoint.
Tools used
NanonetsNanonets Pre-trained Invoice ExtractorABN lookup web services
Outcome
Nanonets enabled identification of a $30k discrepancy between SAP Ariba portal expenses and extracted invoice data, surfaced cost inconsistencies across suppliers for the same equipment, and validated supplier ABN numbers — described as fundamental in saving cost.
What failed first
The team's manual approach of collecting invoices and building spreadsheets could not scale to the volume and variety of invoice formats, leaving verification gaps and discrepancies unaddressed.
