Case Study: Event Ready cuts expense approval time to under a day with Sage Expense Management

How Event Ready Cut Expense Approval Times to Under a Day

Event Ready, a 10-employee broadcasting support services company, needed a better way to manage fast-moving employee expenses for major sports broadcasts. With frequent travel, hundreds of receipts, multiple company cards, manual reconciliation, and no clear approval visibility, the finance team struggled with budget overruns, slow month-end close, and time-consuming expense tracking. They used Sage Expense Management (formerly Fyle) to address these challenges.

With Sage Expense Management, Event Ready introduced mobile receipt capture, OCR-based matching, structured approvals, automated reconciliation, and direct syncing to QuickBooks Online. The results were significant: over 50% of submissions now come through the mobile app, 95% of monthly reports are approved the same day, approval time fell to under a day, credit card reconciliation dropped from 10 hours to 1 hour per month, and month-end close improved from 3 days to 1 day.
