| Serrala | Legacy | Serrala FinanceSuite Accounts Payable | AP Automation | ERP Financial Management | n/a | 2007 | 2007 |
Apex Tool Group implemented Serrala FinanceSuite Accounts Payable in 2007. The deployment targeted AP Automation to centralize accounts payable functions within the corporate finance organization.
Serrala FinanceSuite Accounts Payable was configured to handle core AP modules including non-inventory invoice capture and processing, minimal inventory invoice handling, employee travel and expense report processing, and 1099 management. Payment execution capabilities were operationalized for weekly check runs and for initiating wire and ACH payments, aligning payment workflows with the finance team's operational cadence. The implementation supported reporting and spreadsheet based reconciliations used by clerical staff.
Operational coverage centered on the finance department with throughput of approximately 1,100 invoices per month, and included vendor correspondence, problem resolution, and maintenance of postage and supply procurement processes. The project notes indicate training on SAP, Concur and PTS Dolphin for a concurrent system conversion, implying planned data migration and interface planning between Serrala FinanceSuite Accounts Payable and the incoming systems. These activities suggest the Serrala deployment functioned as a primary AP Automation layer during transition and required coordination for transactional handoffs and data integrity.
Governance emphasized routine payment controls, weekly payment run procedures, and clerical stewardship of AP files and 1099 records, with staff responsibilities documented around processing and exception handling. No implementation partner is recorded, and operational responsibilities included both transactional processing and administrative support for the finance facility.

In 2018, Apex Tool Group implemented GEP SMART Spend Analysis as part of a broader adoption of SMART by GEP to support its source-to-order procurement capabilities. The implementation is recorded under Analytics and BI and targeted Apex Tool Group's global procurement organization to centralize spend visibility and reporting.
The deployment used GEP's cloud-native, SaaS SMART platform and focused on spend analysis functionality alongside associated source-to-order modules. Functional capabilities implemented include spend analysis, strategic sourcing, contract management, procure-to-order purchasing and related procure-to-pay workflows, with supplier management, invoicing and savings project tracking incorporated to provide end-to-end procurement visibility.
Apex Tool Group executed an explicit integration to its SAP ERP, performing its own SAP connectivity to feed transactional and master data into GEP SMART Spend Analysis. The platform was positioned to interoperate with major ERP systems and to serve global procurement processes across manufacturing, sourcing and purchasing functions.
Governance and rollout emphasized digitizing key business processes within the global procurement organization, with the stated objective of driving procure-to-order efficiencies. The vendor materials and customer selection rationale highlighted ease of use, a unified single-platform approach, and cloud hosting that removes on-premise infrastructure and support burdens as primary factors in the decision to deploy GEP SMART Spend Analysis.
