extraction, and coding of invoice data from any format -
Improved visibility into utility bill management performance and
insights into opportunities for improvements and savings -
Validated, trustworthy data and automated identification of billing
errors and usage outliers -
Mitigated risk of late fees and opportunity for early-pay discounts
with streamlined approval workflows and notifications -
Scalable automation capabilities that will continue to support Five
Guys as they grow and expand
“We chose Goby’s cloud-based technology suite for its sophisticated
utility bill management process, which will replace the time-consuming,
manual tasks our accounts payable team members previously dealt with,”
says Larry Hart, V.P. Finance and Accounting at Five Guys. “This will
empower our team with trustworthy data and allow them to focus more on
value-add projects; their user-friendly interface will increase
productivity and visibility into our utility bill management processes,
dramatically transforming our utility bill process and reporting
capabilities.”
“This is a great opportunity to introduce cutting-edge technology that
will streamline and simplify operations at one of America’s favorite
burger chains,” says Chris Happ, CEO of Goby. “We’re proud to add this
highly-admired brand to our portfolio and excited for them to begin
