Optimising Cost Management and Streamlining Procurement Processes
Implementation of an expenditure indexing system in the renovation sector

Problem

Renovation projects are characterised by difficulties in financial management. The problems include:
Lack of centralised documentation: Invoices are scattered across various locations (emails, vehicles, messaging apps), which makes management difficult.
Lack of cost transparency: Difficulties in tracking purchases of building materials.
Limited control over returns: Inadequate monitoring of return deadlines, leading to financial losses.

Solution

Implementation of an Intelligent Expenditure Indexing System. The project involves:
Automating the invoice reading process using OCR technology.
Classifying products and recording them in a structured format.
Using a semantic AI search engine to search for information in natural language.

Key elements of implementation

Document digitisation:

Each invoice is converted into data containing information about the product, price, shop, date and return deadline.

Semantic search engine:

It enables you to quickly find answers to questions, such as those regarding the costs of specific materials over a given period.

Automation of return deadline notifications:

The system alerts you to upcoming deadlines, minimising the risk of losses.

Business value

  • Greater transparency: Provides a full overview of purchase history and prices.
  • Waste reduction: Eliminates waste associated with unused materials.
  • Faster decision-making: Streamlines procurement processes, boosting team efficiency.

Results

  • Centralised management and comprehensive recording of purchases.
  • Greater control over costs and suppliers.
  • Eliminating financial losses from unused materials.
  • Optimised project team performance.
