Case Study: Pernod Ricard achieves real-time expense control and faster reimbursements with Rydoo

When “Convivialité” Rhymes With Digitization and Ease of Use

Pernod Ricard faced a burdensome, paper-based expense process that left finance teams without a real-time view of spending and weak controls over corporate credit cards. CFO Romain Benoist sought a cloud-based, easy-to-use mobile solution to reduce manual inputs, improve approval controls and speed up reimbursements—so Pernod Ricard selected Rydoo’s real-time expense management platform (mobile app, OCR capture and cloud integration).

Rydoo implemented mobile receipt capture with OCR, automated workflows and a seamless integration to Pernod Ricard’s JD Edwards ERP, eliminating double entry and much of the paper handling. The change gave finance real-time visibility into spend, sped up processing and reimbursements, dramatically reduced employee time spent on expenses (some had been spending ~30 minutes daily), and delivered broad adoption across the company—Romain reports faster paybacks and highly positive user feedback.
