IBM Global Financing automates invoice processing with new intelligent data capture solution from Razorsight

FAIRFAX, Va., Sept. 27, 2006 -- Razorsight Corporation, a market leader and innovator of financial business intelligence software, today announced it has been selected by IBM Global Financing (IGF) to fully automate IGF's invoice management operation, helping it reduce processing costs and continue to provide top-level service to its customers.

Razorsight's newly released Automated Invoice Management (AIM) is the only turn-key solution on the market today that offers automation, business workflow, and analytics for a company's management of direct costs, while delivering a return on investment in under 12 months. AIM fully automates invoice management, data extraction, inventory tracking and storage of paper invoices. With AIM, IGF will gain 100% visibility into its invoice data while eliminating the need to manually process significant numbers of paper invoices.

The world's largest IT financier, IBM Global Financing receives over 75,000 invoices a year. Twenty percent of these invoices are paper but require 80% of staff time to process, significantly cutting into lease revenue and preventing the company from meeting the response requirements of its Service Level Agreements. In order to maintain its position as a global leader in IT equipment leasing, IGF made the commitment to automate 100% of its invoicing.

"IBM Global Financing's goal is to completely eliminate manual processing of invoices and to be paperless this year, and we have chosen Razorsight to get us there," said John Davidoski, Manager, IBM Support.

"AIM automates the manual processing of invoices received in any format -- paper, PDF, EDI or fax - and performs audits and analyses on this valuable data, thereby providing vastly enhanced visibility and analytics capabilities. As a result, Global 2000 Enterprises can make better decisions while improving SOX compliance," said Razorsight CEO Charlie Thomas.

"AIM is the only solution of its kind which delivers an ROI in under a year. We have saved our customers billions of dollars and transformed the way they manage, process and audit their direct costs," added Thomas.
