FC Bayern: Streamlining travel expense management and employee reimbursements

FC Bayern is Germany's most successful football club and a global leader in professional sports. With numerous honors, including the UEFA Champions League and 34 German Bundesliga championships, FC Bayern is a fan favorite worldwide.

As a significant number of its employees travel regularly, FC Bayern was challenged by its legacy nonintegrated expense management system. It was cumbersome for travelers to claim their travel expenses and receive timely reimbursement. FC Bayern also had limited visibility into the overall travel spend. Looking to optimize travel expense management, FC Bayern sought to replace its resource-intensive reimbursement process with a modern solution integrated with its existing business ecosystem.

“With the help of Concur Expense, we significantly improved the travel expense claims and reimbursement experience for our people. Our employees now receive their reimbursement much faster, and we have much better visibility into our overall travel spend.”
