“With SAP Concur, travel expenses now take about one week to process, compared to four to six weeks before.”
“Our staff was spending too much time and effort tracking, filing and putting away paper. It wasn’t efficient, and it didn’t give us the transparency we needed to quickly respond to open records requests. We needed a paperless environment where all the information would be at our fingertips.”
"We wanted to find a more flexible and scalable solution, available on the Web and mobile, multilingual, paperless, and capable of being deployed internationally. Already working with an SAP ERP, opting for SAP Concur made it easier to manage interfaces."
"With Concur in place, we had already reduced our internal costs for processing expense reports. We knew there had to be a better way to get taxes back too.”
“Concur can provide the workflow that automatically sends the expense report to the appropriate managers, per policy, so you get an automated audit trail for compliance.”
"In the first quarter this year, we had $37,000 expense savings and $16,000 travel savings, for a total of $53,000—and expect those numbers to continue to rise as we go through the year."
"It’s created efficiencies in ways that we didn’t even really think about."
“We know that we are much better now with Concur, we have data, we can analyze what our employees are using, or how they are doing their expenses, so definitely, Excel spreadsheets were in the past for us, and we are just moving forward.”
"Initially, under the old way, employees in the field would travel to a specific job. They would incur the expenses. They would then have to submit their expense report. The project manager wouldn't see the cost hit the job until two, maybe three of four months later. With Concur Request, the request is created for the car rental, the air fare and the hotel. It then goes to the project manager and they approve those costs prior to the trip taking place."
“When we used a paper-based system, my department was constantly inundated with calls from employees enquiring about their expenses; now we barely get any. It’s better for employees as reimbursement times are very quick, and they no longer need to chase repayment. It means that we have ruled out the need for cash advances. The system never makes mathematical errors and we have eliminated cost centre and General Ledger posting errors. What’s more, we now have access to a huge amount of information that can easily be extracted into various types of reports. We can even run one for bicycle mileage!”
“EDSI is a high-performing culture, and we live by our core values of ‘show up, smile, and support.’ Utilizing SAP Concur solutions has really helped us drive those values, live that mission, be more effective, and be more efficient.”
"Since the release of Concur Expense in 2009, we have not turned back. The innovation and functional advancements [of SAP Concur solutions] fuel our creativity within our travel and expense processes."
“Concur Expense is clearly built with customization in mind, which to us means power – the power to manage our data the way we need to."
“Audit rules help shape the behavior of associates’ spending, and that has saved Unisys a lot of money."
"Thanks to Concur Expense, we are able to limit our employees' administrative workload, which allows them to focus on the more challenging and rewarding aspects of their work."
