Case Study: Tanger Outlets achieves complete control of SEC reporting and in-house XBRL tagging with Workiva

Tanger Outlets - Customer Case Study

Tanger Factory Outlet Centers, based in Greensboro, NC, operates dozens of outlet shopping centers across the U.S. and Canada. Its SEC reporting team wanted to retain full in‑house control over report development and filing—including XBRL tagging—but their existing software couldn’t handle XBRL and relying on outside vendors caused delays and loss of control.

Tanger adopted Wdesk (Workiva) to create, EDGARize, and XBRL‑tag filings internally; the cloud‑based, familiar interface plus comment/blackline/milestone tools and dedicated customer support streamlined change management and remote collaboration. The result: complete control over SEC reporting, faster, more consistent and professional filings, and strong ongoing support.
