About

Alstom is a global leader in rail transportation and a major supplier of train control systems for metro projects in India. With a growing presence in South Asia and involvement in high-speed train projects, Alstom maintains complex vendor ecosystems, requiring seamless financial transaction management.

Business Challenges

  • High invoice volume: Over 200 vendor invoices daily, many multi-currency.
  • Manual approval bottlenecks: Bills scanned and circulated via email through multiple departments, delaying payments.
  • Excessive resource dependency: Nearly 300+ personnel engaged in physical processing for South India operations alone.
  • Productivity loss: Around 60% of financial transactions still handled physically.
  • Scattered teams: Distributed purchase and manufacturing units made centralized approval difficult.
  • Our Approach

    Alstom was an existing client of HM. First engagement was very minor work. Client was facing a problem with their existing tool called Attendance Management System. HM supported them to fix the issue with the tool. And we got approved from Alstom as a registered vendor. And then we got a project to give them a solution.

    • Proposed a user-friendly collaborative workflow system – Android application for invoice processing – which brings all parties together with role-based authentication and inbuilt workflow notifications.
    • Flexible workflow based on the type of invoice.
    • Developed a future-adaptable and scalable system to embrace all Units.
    • Devised a project plan to address each module and implemented it in stages.

    Solution

    Our team designed and deployed a user-friendly Android application for invoice processing, built on the principles of role-based authentication and automated workflows.

    Key features included:

    • Collaborative workflow system: Brought together distributed finance, purchase, and manufacturing teams.
    • Role-based authentication & notifications: Ensured the right stakeholders received approvals instantly.
    • Flexible workflows: Adapted to invoice type and hierarchy.
    • Web Twain Scanner SDK integration: Enabled direct scanning of physical documents into the system.
    • Scalable architecture: Future-proofed to support all units and evolving finance processes.
    • Pay Pro Tool: Automated payment receipt generation and dispatch to vendors.

    The system was built by a dedicated team of three Android developers in 2160 hours, with iterative feedback from beta runs for continuous improvement.
