Esker Signs $300,000 Agreement with Leading Asian Airline

MADISON, Wis.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Esker, a worldwide leader in document process automation solutions, announced today that it has signed an agreement worth approximately $300,000 with one of Asia’s foremost airlines to implement end-to-end vendor invoice automation. As the first cloud-based solution to be deployed at the company, the Esker Accounts Payable on Demand solution will deliver improved process and business efficiencies.

“Winning this project is significant for Esker to further establish our presence in the Asian region, particularly with a company that is so committed to innovation and customer satisfaction”

As part of its commitment to continuous improvement and being a pioneering technology adopter, the airline was looking to optimize document processes and automate accounts payable.

Esker met the company’s detailed criteria and will begin implementing the solution immediately, with plans for project delivery in early 2013.
