With interest rates falling in the market, the company was facing diminishing returns on surplus funds.
A very small percentage of their vendors were participating in traditional modes of discounting invoices. This cumbersome arrangement was largely done over e-mails and phone calls.
Our client was keenly looking for a digital platform, where the vendors could log in and discount their invoices easily.
