How Associa transforms document classification with the GenAI IDP Accelerator and Amazon Bedrock

Associa, North America’s largest community management company, oversees approximately 7.5 million homeowners with 15,000 employees across more than 300 branch offices. The company manages approximately 48 million documents across 26 TB of data, but its existing document management system lacked efficient automated classification capabilities, creating manual bottlenecks and operational delays. Associa collaborated with the AWS Generative AI Innovation Center to build a generative AI-powered document classification system integrated into existing workflows using the GenAI IDP Accelerator on AWS.

  • Built a document classification system with the GenAI IDP Accelerator on AWS.
  • Used Amazon Textract OCR and Amazon Bedrock multimodal classification with Amazon Nova Pro / Nova Lite / Nova Premier.
  • Evaluated full PDF vs first-page-only input and OCR+image vs image-only prompting, then selected the first-page-only OCR+image approach with Amazon Nova Pro for the best accuracy-cost tradeoff.
Improved Unknown document type accuracy from 40% to 85%.
Architecture

The solution uses the AWS GenAI IDP Accelerator in Pattern 2 with Amazon Textract OCR plus Amazon Bedrock multimodal classification. Associa evaluated full PDF versus first-page-only inputs, OCR+image versus image-only prompting, and several Amazon Nova models to select the optimal configuration.
