In 2020, CDB Group implemented Ocerra AP Automation to address AP Automation requirements within its finance function, following vendor research and a specific April 2020 engagement. The project was driven by a non negotiable requirement to post invoices to the ledger while invoices remained pending approval, enabling P and L recognition prior to business approval rather than waiting until payment authorization.
Ocerra AP Automation was configured to deliver an AI driven data extraction engine that captures invoice data, maps GL codes, determines tax rates and applies supplier payment terms, while automatically attaching PDF invoices during export. The deployment used role based configuration to present only relevant settings to approvers and finance staff, and the workflow module provided standardised approval routing and auditability so users could see who viewed, updated or approved each invoice.
The implementation included integration with the customer ERP for invoice posting, with Ocerra monitoring the classification and extraction during the first one to two months to accelerate steady state operations, and enabling invoices to be posted to the ERP in two to three weeks after sign up. Operational integrations also included connectors for business intelligence and reporting through Power BI and Excel, and the solution automated the prior manual steps of importing and attaching PDFs as part of daily processing.
Governance changes focused on embedding the invoice approval workflow across the business, enforcing audit trail visibility and reducing ad hoc follow up to approvers. Outcomes reported by CDB Group included headcount related cost savings as AP staff were redeployed to other areas, materially fewer manual entry errors due to AI extraction, faster approval cycles with approval turnaround effectively halved, and improved visibility for analysis of cost by customer, supplier and category using the AP Automation data.

| Cloudflare | Legacy | Cloudflare CDN | Content Delivery Network | IaaS | n/a | 2019 | 2019 |
In 2019, CDB Group deployed Cloudflare CDN to front its public website. Cloudflare CDN functions as a Content Delivery Network implemented as a reverse proxy, providing edge caching, HTTP request routing, TLS termination, and static asset delivery to serve web content from Cloudflare edge locations rather than directly from the origin web server.
The implementation scope is the corporate website and related public-facing assets, with Cloudflare CDN configured and managed via the Cloudflare dashboard by internal web or IT administration. Operational configuration includes DNS routing to Cloudflare to direct user traffic to the CDN edge and standard Content Delivery Network controls such as cache control headers and origin pull delivery to manage how content is cached and refreshed.
