In Dragør municipality, the former CFO Morten Højberg Vestergaard, the current CFO Bjarne Schultz Jensen, and the rest of their team had a good idea. Together, they decided to investigate whether new technology, such as artificial intelligence, could solve several of their challenges. The team initiated an investigation of various suppliers of automatic bookkeeping. After thoroughly researching the market for possible solutions, the choice ended with Kaunt. Since then, Kaunt has been responsible for automatic invoice handling in some of the municipality's processes.
The right solution
Katrine Wulf Jensen, financial consultant in Dragør municipality, says:
"The digital journey is an extensive journey, to begin with, and it has naturally required a certain degree of configuration on our part to get ready to exploit Kaunt's full potential. It's still new to me, but Kaunt's user interface itself is both easy to get hold of and extremely user-friendly."
In 2020, Dragør Municipality began to see positive results through its collaboration with Kaunt. Currently, the daycare sector is benefiting the most from the digital transition the municipality is experiencing. Implementing automatic bookkeeping has given the daycare manager in Køjevænget more energy, more time to focus on his other responsibilities and better control of the financial functions.
Jette Rohardt Sommer, the daily leader at Køjevænget, also speaks positively about her experience with Kaunt:
“First of all, you save a lot of precious time with the system. During busy periods, I often forgot how much time I would spend obtaining the correct booking numbers. At the same time, I get a pleasant feeling of going to my computer to pay the bills, as now there are only a few documents that I have to deal with, whereas previously I would see it as an unmanageable task.”
Dragør Municipality now understands that artificial intelligence, such as Kaunt, is not difficult to work with. On the contrary, it is a concrete tool that can lead to reduced costs and create better working conditions for the employees in the municipality.
"We are more than convinced that the solution from Kaunt can lead to cost savings in our municipality as soon as it becomes part of our daily operations. In general, we see great opportunities in the future to increase efficiency through technology. Kaunt is just the first step on a longer, more comprehensive technological journey for us", says CFO in Dragør Municipality Bjarne Schultz Jensen.
