tangro IM and Ammann Group: Perfect mix for more efficiency
The Ammann Group is proof that a long-established company can be as innovative as a recent start-up. The Swiss-based company has been successfully supplying the construction industry for over 143 years with cutting-edge products such as mixing plants, compaction machines and pavers.
This combination of longevity and continuous optimisation also characterises the international firm's approach to IT: Ammann is constantly on the look-out for solutions that deliver genuine added value. That's why, for the last two years, the company has been using tangro for automatic invoice verification.
The Ammann Group's head office in Langenthal (Switzerland) receives an average of 50 000 invoices every year – mostly paper invoices sent by post. Processing them manually was not only laborious and time-consuming, but also unnecessarily held up by complex release processes. This is because in addition to traditional repetitive manufacturing with standardised purchasing and release processes, the company with its 3000 employees is also engaged in international plant engineering and construction, which involves a constantly changing list of suppliers all over the world, making invoice verification even more complex.
