Unified Global Data Source Across All Systems
The Challenge:
A Complex Data Landscape:
- Operations spanned multiple countries with invoices in 14 different languages.
- Three active and separate ERP systems, leading to fragmented data sources.
Limited Resources:
- The Sustainability team comprised 1.5 full-time employees
- No access to dedicated developer resources.
Entirely Manual Processes:
- Team leaders manually deciphered and captured data from complex utility invoices, some containing 5 to 20 meters, into spreadsheets.
Uncertainty in Reporting:
- Difficulty in aligning data correctly for carbon accounting and visualizations due to varying formats, units of measure, and terminologies.
The Solution:
Reduced Tasks:
- GLYNT.AI laid out the streamlined workflow, demonstrating end-to-end automation and compliance
- Teams forwarded utility bills for energy, water, and waste in PDF format, directly to a centralized system, eliminating manual data entry.
Automated & Granular Data Collection:
- Automated processing broke down complex, multi-meter invoices into granular data.
- Harmonized data across different languages and units of measure for unified reporting.
Customized Outputs:
- For seamless ingestion into the company’s carbon accounting software
- Detailed, meter-level data for the procurement team to manage expenses effectively.
Automated Translations:
Documents in foreign languages were automatically translated during processing, ensuring consistency.
Monthly Reporting:
Established fully automated, monthly sustainability data flows, reducing the stress of last-minute reporting.
