IT services major Wipro has launched a ‘Travel & Expense (T&E) Management as a service’ solution on Microsoft’s Azure cloud platform for the B2B segment, with general availability release due in December 2015. The solution will provide accurate, simplified and scalable processes for users, administrators and finance functions across an enterprise.
Wipro’s ‘T&E Management as a Service’ solution will allow for easy travel ticketing, accommodation booking and ground transportation booking. It will also use data analytics on travel patterns for detection of frauds and duplicate claims.
Large organizations with extensive business travel requirements typically have a large team to manage employees’ business travel related bookings and reimbursements. The T&E process is a time intensive and complex process with a non-intuitive engagement style that doesn’t always adapt to enterprise and user needs.
“Wipro believes in innovation that helps businesses achieve better outcomes. With our T&E Management as a Service solution, businesses can achieve up to 60% reduction in total travel & expense management costs and improve the experience for their employees. Microsoft was an exceptional partner in helping us realize our idea,” said TK Kurien, Chief Executive Officer at Wipro.
“Wipro’s ‘Travel & Expense Management as a Service’ solution will provide a simple and efficient process to enterprises, leveraging the scale and performance of Azure. It is a great example of a mobile-first cloud-first world application,” said Scott Guthrie, Executive Vice President, Cloud & Enterprises business, Microsoft.
