Top Challenges

  • Massive Deduction Volume: Kraft Heinz handled over $4B in annual deductions (15% of total revenue), making invalid claims hidden and nearly impossible to find manually.
  • Revenue Leakage From Delays: Recovery rates plummet from 80% to 20% when disputes drag toward the 90-day industry average, leaving millions on the table.
  • Exhaustive Manual Data Chasing: Analysts wasted countless hours logging into 100+ portals to manually gather fragmented deal sheets, invoices, and proof-of-delivery files.
  • Inability to Scale Across Retailers: Trade deductions were difficult to scale because major retailers like Kroger and Albertsons used completely unique formats, workflows, and promotion rules.
  • Complex Processing Bottlenecks: Missing a single document stalled the multi-check validation process, forcing analysts to manually route and coordinate exceptions across Sales, Logistics, and AR.
