Case Study
University of New Mexico
The University of New Mexico (UNM), founded in 1889, sought to eliminate manual tasks in its expense and invoice management process, which was paper-based and time-consuming. Prior to implementing Emburse Chrome River, the process could take up to two weeks, requiring physical transportation of documents for signatures and manual filing. By switching to Emburse, UNM streamlined workflows, automating compliance checks and using PCard integrations. This cut processing steps in half, reducing reimbursement time by 75%, saving 35,000 hours annually, and cutting paper usage by 800,000 sheets. These improvements resulted in a significant reduction in administrative burden and carbon footprint.
