Local governments are the heartbeat of our communities, managing budgets, maintaining services, and ensuring accountability. But behind the scenes, many finance departments are overwhelmed by outdated, manual accounts payable (AP) processes that slow them down, and stretch their already limited resources. If you’ve ever had to chase approvals, manually input vendor data, or reprocess a misfiled invoice, you’re familiar with the frustration.
That’s why you won’t want to miss the opportunity to register for the upcoming webinar on August 21st at 10am MT. We’re introducing the new Caselle + Revver AP integration, designed specifically for the public sector. This isn’t just a software update, it’s a smarter, faster way to manage invoice processing. With automation and AI built in, the integration helps local governments streamline workflows, reduce costs, and refocus staff time on what matters most.
Manual invoice processing is expensive, time-consuming, and error-prone. Many cities still rely on workflows that include printing emailed invoices, physically routing them for signatures, and then rekeying the same data into their ERP. In one case encountered by Revver, this manual process took up to 17 days for a single invoice to reach approval. Multiply that by hundreds of invoices each month, and the costs add up fast, not just in dollars, but in lost productivity.
Industry benchmarks reveal that processing a single invoice manually can cost between $7.75 and $20. For a government office processing 200 invoices per week, that translates to well over $75,000 per year in processing costs alone. This doesn’t account for the opportunity cost of time your staff could spend on budgeting, forecasting, or serving constituents. Manual processes often come with hidden liabilities too, misplaced documents, late payments, and audit headaches due to missing records or inconsistent tracking.
This is where the Caselle + Revver integration makes a powerful difference. Once an invoice is received, whether by email or folder upload, Revver’s Smart Extract AI reads and extracts all essential data, including vendor information, invoice number, department, and due date. From there, the system automatically routes the invoice to the appropriate approvers and pushes it into Caselle’s Pending Invoices module, with all metadata populated and ready for verification. No retyping. No lost paperwork. Just fast, efficient processing.
Clients who have implemented the integration report immediate results. One city reduced their invoice processing time from 15 days to just 3, without increasing headcount. Another AP clerk who previously managed everything manually said the automation now saves her hundreds of hours, time she can now spend on more strategic or community-facing work. This level of efficiency isn’t just about convenience; it leads to real financial gains, improved vendor relationships through timely payments, and better compliance through built-in audit trails and access controls.
One of the most reassuring insights you’ll glean from the webinar is that this technology doesn’t require you to be an AI expert or radically overhaul your entire infrastructure overnight. You can start small. Begin by auditing your current AP process to identify time drains, then implement automation where it has the highest impact, invoice processing. With Revver’s pre-built templates, intuitive workflows, and seamless Caselle integration, local governments can see results within weeks.
Automation also improves data accuracy and dramatically reduces the risk of human error. Rather than relying on staff to manually enter invoice details or remember approval protocols, the system standardizes and secures the process. And because Revver is purpose-built for the public sector, it meets security compliance standards and includes robust privacy protections, none of your data is used to train AI models outside your account.
Another major benefit is visibility. With automation in place, finance leaders gain real-time access to invoice status, pending approvals, and processing timelines. That level of transparency can dramatically improve responsiveness during audits or budget reviews, and it strengthens vendor trust when payments arrive on time, every time.
This isn’t about replacing your team. It’s about enabling them to do their jobs more effectively. Jesse Wood, CEO of Revver, said it best:
“You don’t realize how big a change this is until you experience it. The time adds up fast.”
That sentiment was echoed by Eric Seljaas, who has worked with over 200 cities and municipalities. As he noted, the shift from paper and manual steps to intelligent automation is one of the most impactful changes a city can make, without needing to increase budget or staff.
To support local governments in taking this step, Caselle and Revver are offering a limited-time promotion. Cities that act now can receive two free user licenses through December 31 and save 30% on licensing and implementation if they sign up by August 31. Combined with guided onboarding and white-glove support, this offer makes it easier than ever to modernize your AP workflow.
If you’re ready to see how it works, we invite you to join our upcoming webinar on August 21st at 10am MT. You’ll get a live demonstration of the Caselle + Revver AP integration, hear real-world success stories, and have the opportunity to ask questions directly to the product teams. Whether you’re a finance director, AP clerk, or IT leader, this session will show you how automation can help you move faster, work smarter, and save more.
This isn’t just about technology. It’s about transforming the way your finance team works, saving time, cutting costs, and focusing more on what really matters: serving your community.
