Fantastic edition of AP Matters Magazine arrived in the mail today. Lavante was feature in the AP Automation article quite a bit.
Here are a few of the words about us from the “Future” of automations section… “Lavante, which operates in a paperless environment…has grown rapidly since the development of its on-demand strategic recovery portal and is now expanding to offer a self-service vendor portal that enables vendor on-boarding, updating of critical data, and uploading of documents for shared visibility across a client’s entire enterprise; and TIN management services, which automate the process of collecting and matching a vendor’s W-9 form and its tax identification number, or TIN, with the IRS. The company is developing additional portal-based features for future release.”

IAPP should incorporate a forum at the annual conference to showcase new technologies that are applicable to Accounts Payable Professionals. The AP Matters article was eye-opening. I have heard about Lavante. Your services are higly regarded by many of my colleagues, but the article makes me want to learn more about what you do. I think many service providers offer more than the we, as buyers, really know.
IAPP is conducting a series of tours available to all forum attendees at FUSION2010. They’d love to hear from you: http://www.iappnet.org
We will be part of the “AP emrging technology tour” and we will be highlighting v.2 of our TIN management tool as well as new profit recovey functionality. -tf
