AI Document Automation: How Madison County Saved $327,000 in Their First Year

When Madison County's administrative staff was drowning in over 50,000 monthly documents

across 12 departments, they knew something had to change. This case study reveals how implementing

our AI-powered document automation system transformed their operations.

Key Achievements:

• Reduced document processing time from 12 minutes to 80 seconds per document

• Decreased error rates from 4.2% to 0.3%

• Eliminated 12,340 hours of manual data entry annually

• Achieved 99.7% accuracy in automated classification

• Saved $327,000 in direct costs in year one

The Challenge:

Madison County's staff was manually processing everything from building permits and tax assessments

to court records and public works requests. With a 22% increase in document volume over two years

and budget constraints preventing new hires, backlogs were growing exponentially.

The Solution:

Our AI document automation platform was deployed across all key departments in three phases:

1. Initial deployment in Building & Permits (Week 1-4)

2. Extension to Tax Assessment and Public Works (Week 5-8)

3. Full rollout across remaining departments (Week 9-12)

The system now automatically:

• Classifies 14 different document types

• Extracts data with 99.7% accuracy

• Integrates with 5 existing municipal systems

• Provides real-time processing status updates

ROI Breakdown:

• Labor cost reduction: $248,000

• Error-related savings: $42,000

• Overtime elimination: $37,000

• Total first-year savings: $327,000
