Itemize, the leader in Agentic Automation for Finance Operations, has successfully deployed its AI-powered Accounts Payable (AP) automation solution at Arguijo Corporation, a construction and infrastructure services firm. The implementation replaces paper-driven, fragmented workflows with intelligent, line-level data extraction and direct ERP integration—delivering dramatic gains in speed, accuracy, and real-time visibility.
Construction and infrastructure firms like Arguijo historically rely on labor-intensive, paper-heavy AP processes involving physical handoffs, shared drives, and manual data entry across multiple teams. These workflows create bottlenecks, coding errors, and delayed visibility—issues that Itemize’s agentic AI platform eliminates through proprietary line-level data capture and seamless ERP integration.
"With Itemize, we no longer pass PDFs or printed invoices from the mailroom to project managers, and then back to accounting for manual entry," said Jon Hibler, CFO of Arguijo Corporation. "My team no longer digs through shared drive folders or paper packets to reference budgets or POs. Itemize reads the data directly from our systems and presents only the line items and codes with available budgeting. Processing is faster, errors are down, and we finally have the visibility we need. Automation has fundamentally improved the speed, accuracy, and control of our operations."
"Jon has been an exceptional partner," said Samuel Ridderhof, SVP of Delivery at Itemize. "He approaches AI as a practical way to transform how his team works. His willingness to rethink processes and lean into automation has been central to the success of this rollout."
