Wipro Ltd. (NYSE:WIT), a leading global information technology,
consulting and business process services company, today announced
the launch of a ‘Travel & Expense (T&E) Management as a
Service’ solution, on Microsoft’s Azure 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.
The Wipro ‘T&E Management as a Service’ solution will
enable organizations across industry sectors to carry out the
process of travel-related reimbursement and reporting with ease and
scalability. This productized service on Azure is an
example of how Wipro can help reimagine core enterprise
processes and engineer intuitive services and
solutions that provide breakthrough
productivity to win in the mobile-first cloud-first
world for our customers.
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’s ‘T&E Management as a Service’ solution will create
an intuitive, easy-to-use, cloud-based mobile and web application
with enterprise and third party API (Application Program Interface)
integration to make this process seamless and efficient. It will
provide intuitive performance and insights similar to that offered
by popular social apps. The application will allow for easy travel
ticketing, accommodation booking and ground transportation booking.
Besides the solution will make it simple to capture and report
expenses and enable accounting to be better aligned with corporate
policies and norms. It will also leverage data analytics on travel
patterns for detection of frauds and duplicate claims.
“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 and
Member of the Board, Wipro Ltd.
“Microsoft and Wipro have been working together closely to bring
Wipro’s solutions to Microsoft Azure so as to provide trusted
solutions to enterprise customers. 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.
