Challenge

Brigade’s finance and T&E operations were bogged down by manual, siloed processes. Travel and expense submissions relied on emails, spreadsheets, and a homegrown tool—creating inefficiencies, inconsistent workflows, and an unsustainable administrative load.

The legacy system lacked critical flexibility features like delegation and mobile accessibility, restricting user adoption and scalability. Approval cycles were slow, policy checks were manual, and reimbursements were routinely delayed.

Without integrated validations or automated controls, non-compliant claims slipped through, exposing the business to financial risk and hampering transparency across departments.
