See how Microsoft Partner InSpark streamlined expense approvals, enhanced security, and ensured compliance with Klippa SpendControl and seamless Microsoft Entra ID integration.
About InSpark
InSpark, a Microsoft Gold Partner and award-winning leader in digital transformation, cybersecurity, and identity management, helps organizations securely transition to cloud, AI, and advanced security frameworks. Based in Amstelveen, Netherlands, the company was recognized as Microsoft’s Global Security & Identity Partner of the Year for its commitment to compliance-driven digital solutions.
To maintain its high security standards, InSpark needed a spend management solution that integrated seamlessly with Microsoft Entra ID. Their goal was to automate user provisioning, ensure real-time role-based approvals, and eliminate manual intervention in expense workflows — all while staying fully compliant.
After a thorough evaluation, CTO Robbert Kelder selected Klippa SpendControl as the only solution capable of meeting these demands. Klippa’s Entra ID integration enabled dynamic user provisioning and fully automated approval workflows, solving InSpark’s challenge of managing complex, role-based approval structures that other solutions could not support.
Robbert explains, “Our previous solution was simply not secure. So far, you were the only ones in the market that met our requirements.” He adds, “Since the implementation, we have better visibility and control over submitted expense claims.”
InSpark automates expense approvals with Klippa’s Microsoft Entra ID integration
InSpark’s previous system lacked dynamic user provisioning, requiring manual approval setups that were inefficient and prone to errors. Additionally, the existing solution did not meet InSpark’s security requirements, as it operated outside their Microsoft Entra ID-based security framework.
With Klippa SpendControl, InSpark fully automated user provisioning and workflow approvals, ensuring that access roles and approval chains dynamically adapt based on real-time Entra ID synchronization. Employees now submit expenses effortlessly, while managers approve them based on hierarchical and category-based policies — eliminating manual oversight.
Robbert emphasizes, “For employees, it has become easier and clearer to submit their expense claims in compliance with InSpark’s policy.”
By integrating Klippa SpendControl, InSpark gained:
“If you use Microsoft Entra ID, the integration with Klippa SpendControl is simply the best choice for secure and efficient expense management.”

Robbert shares, “For us, it is essential that user management, permissions, and authorizations are automatically handled in the applications. That is the only way we can comply with regulations and operate securely.”
