SANTA BARBARA, CALIF., Feb. 24, 2010 - Apartment management company LumaCorp Inc.has cut spending on maintenance, repair and operating supply procurement for its 21 properties since implementing Yardi Procure to Pay™. LumaCorp achieved its goals with Yardi Procure to Pay. This solution integrates online supply catalogs from Yardi SiteStuffwith Yardi PAYscan™, which converts paper invoices into electronic transactions in LumaCorp's Yardi Voyager™ property management and accounting system. Online approval routing is automated. "We offset the cost of implementing Procure to Pay within three months just by eliminating the cost of transporting invoices by courier," said Kathy Whitman, LumaCorp's executive vice president. "The new products and process changes will continue to drive significant cost reductions and let our staff members devote more time to revenue-generating activities." LumaCorp also elected to take advantage of Yardi's Application Service Provider hosting service so it can access Voyager as software-as-a-service. With ASP hosting, Yardi serves and maintains the Voyager application and database for LumaCorp from its data center, assuming responsibility for all application updates, network security, hardware, bandwidth, and infrastructure, allowing LumaCorp to focus on its principal business. "LumaCorp has always been a leader among multifamily property managers in deploying leading-edge technology. We are happy they chose Yardi as their technology partner to continue that legacy and execute their current cost-cutting initiatives," said Terri Dowen, Yardi senior vice president of Sales.
