In 2021, BUILD implemented Tipalti Invoice Management and Bill Processing System. The nonprofit deployed the Tipalti Invoice Management and Bill Processing System as a web-embedded AP Automation solution on its website to centralize invoice intake and streamline bill processing for its finance organization.
Configuration focused on invoice capture, a supplier self-service invoice portal, optical character recognition for data extraction, standardized bill processing queues, and structured approval workflows to enforce routing and validation. The implementation established a centralized invoice repository, role-based access controls, coded approval tiers, and automated routing for exception handling and invoice validation workflows.
Operational coverage centers on BUILD finance and accounts payable functions across the United States, with the embedded Tipalti Invoice Management and Bill Processing System handling supplier submissions directly through BUILD.org. Governance work included formalizing invoice routing policies, configuring approval matrices and access controls, and documenting bill processing procedures to align the AP Automation solution with BUILD accounting processes.

In 2020, BUILD deployed Hubspot Live Chat on its public website as the primary conversational interface. BUILD implemented Hubspot Live Chat in the Chatbots and Conversational AI category to support communications, donor engagement, and supporter services across its U.S. operations, with the application instrumented directly on site pages to capture inbound inquiries and initial contact details.
The deployment focused on live chat workflows and automated chatflows typical of the Chatbots and Conversational AI category, including scripted bot prompts for routing, canned responses for repeat questions, and capture of contact information for follow up. Configuration emphasized chat routing to communications and program teams, transcript retention for case handling, and standardized script templates to enforce message governance and consistent supporter experience. Operational ownership was kept centralized within BUILDs communications function, which defined escalation paths and agent handoff rules while training staff on conversational scripts and response SLAs.

In 2020, BUILD deployed Google Workspace (Formerly Google G-Suite) as its primary Collaboration platform. The deployment is organization wide for BUILD, a United States based nonprofit of about 200 employees, and the organization's website indicates active use of Google Workspace services.
Google Workspace (Formerly Google G-Suite) is provisioned to provide cloud hosted Gmail and calendaring, Drive with shared drives for team content, Docs, Sheets and Slides for collaborative authoring, and Google Meet for video collaboration, with the Admin console used for tenant administration. This configuration supports standard Collaboration functional workflows including user provisioning, group based access control, document sharing and real time coauthoring. Mobile device management and identity management are handled through Google Workspace administrative services consistent with a SaaS cloud architecture.
Operational scope appears to cover core staff functions including program teams, development and operations, where shared drives and Google Groups centralize file access and mailing lists, and email accounts are bound to the BUILD domain. Governance and policy enforcement are implemented through the Admin console with delegated administrative roles and group level policy controls to align access with organizational roles. Publicly observable signals on BUILD's website reflect an implemented, cloud native Collaboration footprint using Google Workspace (Formerly Google G-Suite).
