Verian's Cloud-based Purchasing Solutions Augment Symitar Accounting System to Drive More Savings for Members

Charlotte, N.C. (PRWEB) - Grow Financial Federal Credit Union (Grow) recently selected Verian’s cloud-based, purchase-to-pay suite to revolutionize purchasing processes and reap significant savings that will be passed on to members. By automating the purchasing cycle, Verian will help Grow replace manual procedures with electronic processes that are much faster, more accurate and completely visible from start to finish.

Grow will be implementing Verian’s Purchase Manager and Invoice Manager, as well as budgeting tools to

  • Support growth by tracking projects with real-time data
  • Increase efficiency by eliminating time-consuming, disjointed manual processes
  • Reduce risk by implementing a comprehensive system to see all spending and approvals

“Verian’s in-depth knowledge of our industry and partnership with Symitar make them an ideal fit for us,” said Dan Moser, Associate Vice President at Grow Financial Federal Credit Union. “We are very excited to partner with them to transform our purchasing so we can offer our members even more in return.”

Grow was founded in 1955 by a small group of military personnel and civilian employees of MacDill Air Force Base with their first store in a broom closet in the base of an office building, open only during lunch hours. By 2006, the credit union expanded to 17 stores in the Tampa Bay, Fla., area, growing to $1.6 billion in assets and a total membership of 179,000, which lead to the name change of Grow Financial. In 2013, Grow expanded into their first out of state location in South Carolina with a new store in Columbia, S.C., and later in 2014 opened two additional locations in Columbia, S.C., and two new stores in Charleston, S.C.
