Opportunity
Although their project delivery was modern and efficient, Lipman’s internal procure-to-pay (P2P) processes were stuck in the past. The accounts payable team was overwhelmed with manual invoice handling, and the lack of automation across procurement and finance slowed everything down.
Jobpac, their ERP of choice, offered a solid foundation but limited visibility and no digital workflows. Vendor onboarding was prone to errors and delays. Lipman needed a smarter, more scalable solution to match the pace and complexity of their projects.
“We were coming from a place where everything was entirely manual… The Efficiency Leaders tool had the best extraction rate by far… This integration with JobPac has positioned us ahead of the pack and allowed our team to refocus on higher-value tasks.” – Andrew Lander, Financial Controller

Solution
To modernise their systems without disrupting core operations, Lipman implemented the RapidP2P Suite by Efficiency Leaders. The rollout focused on automating key areas across procurement and finance, fully integrated with their existing Jobpac ERP and Eftsure.
RapidP2P Modules Deployed:
- RapidAP (Accounts Payable)
- RapidVO (Vendor Onboarding)
- RapidVP (Vendor Portal)
The combination of Jobpac and RapidP2P created a best-of-both-worlds system. Jobpac provided the project-centric framework construction teams rely on, while RapidP2P layered in automation, flexibility, and real-time data exchange. Eftsure was also integrated for secure, efficient vendor onboarding and payment verification.
Outcomes Achieved
Lipman now processes up to 3,000 invoices a month with minimal manual input. The AP team has reclaimed valuable time, and oversight across procurement and vendor compliance has improved dramatically. With automated workflows in place, payment risks have decreased and processes once slowed by admin are now running at full speed.
Staff report that the system is easy to use and quick to adopt. The support provided by Efficiency Leaders has been consistently strong, ensuring a smooth transition and ongoing success.
Most importantly, Lipman has created a finance and procurement function that’s future-ready—automated, scalable, and aligned with the fast pace of construction delivery.
