About BAS Consultancy

BAS Consultancy is a strategic consulting firm specializing in financial services. The company focuses on helping organizations optimize their financial operations.

To save its own time and costs, BAS Consultancy automated the expense claim and invoice processing procedures with Klippa SpendControl. This resulted in faster and more accurate financial administration processing, leaving employees with more time for more valuable tasks.

Pain points of a manual process

Previously, processing expense claims and invoices was done entirely manually, leading to an overwhelming amount of paperwork and challenges for the team.

Ronald Vader, CFO of BAS Consultancy, described the old process as follows: “The old process was like a fishing contest, where the invoice was placed in the tray and we had to wait until we caught something.” Invoices and expense claims piled up and were processed less accurately because of the high workload.

This situation quickly became a major burden for BAS Consultancy, as this process was not only inefficient, but also difficult to scale. In assessing the situation, BAS Consultancy identified the following pain points: 
Lots of paperwork and time-consuming processes
Piles of invoices and expense claims, sometimes even losing them
Reduced approval accuracy due to high work pressure
Lack of oversight
Dissatisfied employees due to delays in the reimbursement of expenses

Why Klippa SpendControl?

BAS Consultancy sought a solution to address these problems. They researched automated solutions for expense management and invoice processing and considered three providers.

Klippa turned out to offer the most advanced solution and the contact was particularly pleasant. In addition, Klippa offered seamless integration with Exact Globe, allowing data to be synchronized directly with the accounting system.

Another decisive factor was that Klippa was the only provider that could process both invoices and expense claims in one solution, which Ronald Vader says was an important reason for choosing Klippa.

How BAS Consultancy automates their accounting with Klippa

A quick and easy implementation process allowed the BAS Consultancy team to quickly get up and running with Klippa SpendControl. It was crucial for the sales staff and consultants to be able to claim expenses anywhere and in an easy way, especially since they are often on the road.

Klippa provided the ideal solution for this with a system equipped with OCR technology and a Google Maps integration to quickly submit mileage claims.

The process for submitting expense claims now involves three simple steps:
A photo is taken of the receipt with the built-in camera function. For travel expenses, employees can even use the integrated Google Maps functionality.
A description is added and Klippa’s OCR technology automatically fills in the relevant data, such as the total amount and VAT.
The expense claim is submitted after the data is checked and forwarded to the appropriate person for approval.
The invoice processing process is also automated using Klippa SpendControl, and it works as follows:
The invoice is submitted via the app, web environment, or the Klippa mailbox through an automatic email forward.
The data is recognized and the relevant fields are filled in automatically thanks to Klippa’s advanced OCR technology. 
The approval flow is automated with multiple approval layers and smart business rules to ensure the invoice gets to the right approver.  
All data is synchronized with Exact Globe.
This process ensures quick and accurate processing, while BAS Consultancy maintains real-time visibility into the process through Klippa’s clear dashboard.
