The challenge
Where the work was getting stuck.
Karldischinger Group, a full-service supply chain provider with ~1,000 employees across 16 European locations serving pharma, food, and automotive sectors, managed financial processing across a complex multi-entity, multi-currency environment. Invoice matching, cost allocation, and compliance reporting were handled manually by finance teams at each location, creating reconciliation bottlenecks at period end and inconsistency in compliance documentation — particularly for GDP-regulated pharmaceutical transport and cold-chain logistics.
The solution
One intelligence layer across the workflow.
Stargo Stardox Agentic AI was deployed across Karldischinger's finance function with a unified invoice processing engine that ingests supplier invoices, cross-references purchase orders and delivery confirmations, and posts matched transactions automatically. For regulated sectors, the Stardox Agentic AI validates compliance documentation — GDP certificates, temperature logs, chain-of-custody records — and flags gaps before period close. Finance teams at each location work from exception queues rather than raw transaction backlogs, and group-level consolidation is automated.
"Month-end used to mean all-hands on deck across every location. With Stargo, we close faster, with fewer errors, and our compliance documentation is airtight. That matters enormously in pharma logistics."
