Case Study: Louisiana-Pacific Corporation achieves faster, cost-saving travel and expense management with SAP Concur

How Is Better Travel and Expense Management Saving Time and Money for a Global Building Materials Company

Louisiana‑Pacific Corporation (LP) is a global maker of engineered wood products with 24 mills and multiple offices across the Americas. With frequent employee travel between sites and a history of disparate expense tools, LP needed a streamlined, mobile-friendly travel and expense system to reduce administrative burden, improve compliance, and cut costs.

LP adopted cloud‑based SAP Concur solutions (Concur Travel, Concur Expense and Concur for Mobile), integrating automated receipt capture, single sign‑on and vendor connectivity to simplify reporting and approvals. The change cut receipt processing time by 50%, shortened month‑end travel and expense processing from three days to one, enabled 24/7 mobile access, improved compliance and sped up approvals—freeing employees to focus on customers and operations.
