| OpenText | Legacy | OpenText Vendor Invoice Management | AP Automation | ERP Financial Management | Stonebridge Solutions (a subsidiary of Konica Minolta) | 2017 | 2017 |
In 2017, Adbri implemented OpenText Vendor Invoice Management as its AP Automation solution. Stonebridge Solutions, a subsidiary of Konica Minolta, led the implementation, embedding OpenText Vendor Invoice Management for SAP Systems into Adbri’s existing SAP environment. The project targeted accounts payable across Corporate, Cement and Lime, and Concrete and Aggregates divisions, which together processed approximately 100,000 invoices per year, and aimed to eliminate hardcopy invoice data entry while reducing processing error and handling time.
The deployment configured automated invoice capture and data extraction, leveraging Kofax optical character recognition for emailed and variably formatted invoices, which fed structured invoice data into OpenText Vendor Invoice Management. Implemented functional capabilities included invoice validation and matching, automated exception detection and routed approval workflows, plus centralized search and status tracking to provide a single system of record for the invoice lifecycle. The OpenText Vendor Invoice Management application was positioned as an embedded AP Automation layer within SAP to enable higher rates of straight through processing.
Integrations explicitly comprised Kofax OCR and the SAP payments and finance modules, with OpenText Vendor Invoice Management operating as the orchestration point for invoice intake, processing and exception workflows. Operational coverage extended across Adbri’s operations in all Australian states and territories and impacted finance and accounts payable teams across the three business divisions. The configuration reduced email intensive status inquiries by surfacing invoice location and ownership directly in the system.
Governance changes centralized exception handling and enforced workflow based approvals, improving auditability and eliminating ambiguous invoice ownership. Adbri reported that the Cement and Lime division now automates more than 85 percent of invoices, compared with a direct processing success rate as low as 30 percent in 2014, and that the Concrete and Aggregates division absorbed increased invoice volume from acquisitions without staffing changes. Adbri also completed two Vendor Invoice Management upgrades with minimal operational impact, indicating a stable upgrade and support posture for the OpenText Vendor Invoice Management deployment.

| LiveHire | Legacy | LiveHire ATS | Applicant Tracking System | HCM | n/a | 2023 | 2023 |
In 2023, Adbri deployed LiveHire ATS as its Applicant Tracking System to manage external job postings and candidate flows directly on its corporate website. The implementation is focused on HR and Talent Acquisition functions for the distribution business and surfaces vacancies through a LiveHire job listings widget embedded on Adbri's careers pages.
LiveHire ATS is configured to support job requisition publishing, candidate application intake, structured candidate pipelines, screening workflows, interview scheduling, and offer progression, reflecting standard Applicant Tracking System capabilities. Configuration emphasizes career site integration and talent pool segmentation to maintain a consistent candidate experience and centralized application records.
Operational integration uses the LiveHire job listings widget to capture applicant data into LiveHire ATS as a single source of truth for hiring managers and HR. Governance and rollout practices center on centralized recruitment workflow ownership within HR, role based access controls for hiring stakeholders, standardized pipeline stages, and data handling practices aligned to employment data processing requirements.

| SAP | Legacy | SAP BusinessObjects | Analytics and BI | Analytics and BI | n/a | 2013 | 2013 |
In 2013, Adbri implemented SAP BusinessObjects as its enterprise reporting platform within its Analytics and BI portfolio. The deployment targeted corporate reporting across HR, HSE, CRM, project management and operational business functions and served as the primary platform for consolidated enterprise reporting and ad hoc analysis.
SAP BusinessObjects was configured to provide semantic modeling, enterprise reporting, ad hoc query and dashboarding capabilities, alongside scheduled report distribution for executive and operational stakeholders. The implementation work was executed from a Business and Technical Analyst and Systems Development role that included design, report development, integration mapping and coordination with ABAP development resources referenced in the environment. Report assets and analytics artifacts were developed and versioned in parallel with in-house .NET development and SQL Server deliverables.
Reporting feeds and data integration were coordinated with the wider application landscape, explicitly including SAP via ABAP and IDocs and SAP PI, Microsoft Dynamics CRM 2013, Microsoft SQL Server and its reporting and analysis stack including SQL Reporting Services and SQL Analysis Services, and SharePoint 2007, 2010, 2013 for portal delivery and report embedding. The broader data topology also included Chris21 HR data, Active Directory, Cintellate safety and quality systems, and corporate messaging systems such as Outlook along with the corporate IP phone system, creating an end to end data and access topology for Analytics and BI consumption. Interfaces and ETL arrangements were managed through systems integration and custom development in Visual Studio.
Governance and rollout were overseen through combined project management and BA/technical ownership, with responsibilities for systems integration, change coordination across CRM and safety application rollouts, and operational support handoffs. Operational support covered SQL Server administration, SSRS and SSAS interplay, SharePoint workflow orchestration using InfoPath and Nintex, and the ongoing maintenance of SAP BusinessObjects report catalogs.
