Cardiff University is looking to tender for an Accounts Payable Automation solution to enable a more efficient, cost effective and secure accounts payable process. The university currently processes approximately 130,000 invoices per annum. The invoices are manually entered into Oracle EBS and saved locally. We are looking for a SaaS based AP Automation solution to be implemented in the autumn of 2025, which is capable of processing invoices received via email, capturing and storing invoice data and images, and integrating to Oracle EBS AP Invoice Workbench.
