Two experts, a man and a woman in a lively discussion.

Process optimisation and automation – if we all do it together we can achieve more

Both the housing and energy sectors are confronted with similar challenges and growing economic pressures. So both sectors are increasingly looking for ways of increasing their efficiency. A promising approach is to systematically optimise, digitalise and automate joint business processes.

As a corporate customer bank for the housing sector, Aareal Bank not only has a comprehensive network of business and development partners but also has access to many decades of experience in the automation of housing industry and energy sector payment processes. This know-how is bundled in particular in First Financial Software GmbH, a joint venture of Aareon Group GmbH and Aareal Bank AG.

Automate error-prone standard processes, use the chances that digitalisation offers, optimise your business processes and create room for strategic tasks:

  • Link your accounts at Aareal Bank with your ERP system. Do it using virtual account numbers of Aareal Bank and the products of the BK01 solutions family of First Financial Software GmbH so as to achieve an integrated, automated and individually-adjustable optimisation of payment management. This goes to render processes in the housing and energy industries more efficient, cost-saving and transparent and links them across sectors.
  • Network the payment processes between housing and energy companies. To do this, use your Aareal accounts in conjunction with the BK01 solutions of First Financial Software GmbH. The outcome: optimised data exchange between account and ERP system, process efficiency, transparency and increased customer loyalty.
  • Digitalisation along the entire meter-to-cash process chain: along with our partners we support you – from the digital reading of the meter through AI-supported claims management to the payment process at the level of the bank account. Improve your energy costs appreciably, increase cross-company process efficiency and raise the satisfaction of all actors – from business partners to final customers.
  • Use artificial intelligence to automate error-prone processes in claims management and use personalised customer communication to reduce dunning levels. The solution supplied by our subsidiary collect.AI aids your efficient design of these business processes and raises your claims management to the next level.
