Case Study: SiteMinder achieves 50% faster month-end close and real-time financial control with Workday

SiteMinder gains finance efficiency and furthers expansion with Workday

SiteMinder is a global hotel guest-acquisition platform (AU$100M+ ARR, 35,000 hotels across 160 countries) that outgrew its finance systems as it scaled. Rapid international expansion left a fragmented chart of more than 1,500 accounts, Excel-based consolidations, no expense workflows, limited coding segments and a 20-day month-end close, creating FX “noise,” control gaps and inhibited strategic decision‑making.

SiteMinder implemented Workday Financial Management (including Expenses and Procurement) to create a single, automated enterprise platform. The change delivered real-time consolidations, fully automated AP and expense processing, self-service reporting and dashboards, stronger multi-currency controls and auditable workflows — cutting month-end close by more than half, improving security and freeing finance to focus on strategic insights.
