Why The CHE Companies Chose Vic.ai

The opportunity

Founded in 1998 and based in North Carolina, Custom Home Exteriors and CHE Commercial are also known as The CHE Companies. CHE serves the residential and commercial exteriors industry with siding, roofing, and gutter solutions, with a focus on precision, care, and dedication to excellence.

The CHE finance team had some AP automation in place with their ERP, NetSuite, however, their current use of NetSuite fell short of expectations, leaving critical tasks unaddressed. The team still had to enter invoices manually, which was inefficient and error-prone. Purchase order (PO) matching was also entirely manual and consumed significant time and resources. When POs didn’t match, resolving these issues required further manual intervention, further delaying the process. 

With increasing invoice volumes came more bottlenecks and operational strain, making their current level of automation unsustainable. CHE leadership knew they needed to eliminate these manual pains and realize more automation across the entire operation.

The solution

After carefully evaluating potential vendors, CHE chose to uplevel its AP automation with Vic.ai. The team will benefit from AI-powered invoice processing, PO matching, and analytics. A seamless integration with their ERP, NetSuite, means a more efficient, end-to-end process for overall invoice management. 

“We are thrilled to partner with Vic.ai to transform our accounts payable processes, achieve a high level of no-touch processing, and use modern workflows to correct PO mismatches. The Raleigh team is great to work with, and we appreciate having local resources to support our journey. We look forward to seeing the impact of Vic.ai’s innovative solutions on our operations,” says Josh Menold, CFO at CHE. 

Beyond reducing manual work and errors, this evolution will empower the team to focus on more strategic initiatives and provide CHE leadership with more financial control and visibility.
