Expense Management – Insourcing Talent
A Big Box Consulting Company

The Challenge
A big box consulting company needed to partner with a firm that could bring leveragable expertise in Business Travel Expense Management, to help identify much needed savings opportunities for one of their key clients. The consulting company was short on “Talent” and expertise to identify Travel category opportunities. Their end client was in need of short-term and sustainable savings across six expense categories.

The Approach
BottomLine Group was hired, based on its “Talent” and expertise to partner on the Travel category opportunity. BottomLine Group utilized a comprehensive T&E Diagnostic Tool to review all the category opportunities across Purchasing, Process and Behaviour.

The Result: Talent Leveraged to Drive Business Travel Saves
BottomLine Group was able to enhance the original savings opportunity by 600%, elevating Travel (at 18%) to one of the top categories. The big box consultant and the end client were thrilled with the recommendations and are now seeking implementation support.
