Case Study: Bystronic achieves streamlined travel & expense management and 6% cost savings with TripActions

TripActions Frees Up Bystronic’s Time for Customers

Bystronic, a manufacturer of sheet‑metal cutting and bending machines, struggled with a disjointed travel and expense setup that pulled employees away from customer work. Using separate systems (American Express GBT for travel and SAP Concur for expenses) created manual workflows, poor reporting, hidden fees, and lengthy receipt processes that wasted time and reduced visibility.

Switching to TripActions’ unified travel, corporate card, and expense platform — including TripActions Liquid and mobile apps — automated policy controls, simplified expense submission, and delivered real‑time dashboards and traveler tracking. The result: 6% net savings on travel, 95% policy compliance, ~91–92% mobile adoption, 96% customer satisfaction, 98% of expenses on Liquid cards, and significant time savings for employees and managers.
