Case Study: Nottingham Students' Union streamlines student expense claims with Advanced Exchequer

Automated System Handles Expense Claims for 20,000 Students

Nottingham Students' Union (UoNSU) faced a significant challenge in managing a high volume of up to 20,000 annual student expense claims for its clubs and societies using a restrictive and cumbersome financial system. They partnered with Advanced to find a solution using Advanced Exchequer, seeking to automate processes and streamline their workflow.

Advanced worked with UoNSU to develop a bespoke mobile app, eXpense365, which was integrated with the union's existing front-end system. This solution automated the expense submission and approval process, allowing students to submit claims electronically at any time. The implementation by Advanced resulted in a 15% reduction in the time and cost to process claims and increased overall efficiency by up to 35%, freeing up the finance team to focus on other strategic activities.
