Overview

Carrera Management (“Carrera”), a prominent property management company, had established a reputation for excellence in managing residential properties throughout the city. With a vast portfolio of properties to oversee, Carrera faced numerous challenges in streamlining their operations and enhancing efficiency. One of the key areas that required improvement was their accounting process, which heavily relied on paper cheques and manual tasks.
