How Storm Saves Time with Digital Expense Management
Learn how Storm Digital saves time and boosts efficiency with digital expense management.
Talking with Hendrik Wimmenhove, Finance Manager at Storm Digital (now part of Accenture Netherlands).
About Storm Digital
Storm Digital is a leading growth marketing agency based in the Netherlands, providing digital marketing services for high-profile clients such as ABN Amro and KLM. With a team of over 100 employees, Storm Digital is focused on delivering innovative marketing solutions while maintaining efficient internal processes.
The Challenge: Cumbersome Expense Claims and Delays
As Storm Digital grew, the number of expense claims for travel, business lunches, and overnight stays increased significantly. The manual process of collecting receipts, filling out Excel forms, and submitting them for approval was time-consuming and inefficient. Consultants were frustrated with the complicated process, and the finance team struggled to handle the growing volume of claims. As a result, employees faced long waits for reimbursements, and the finance department was overloaded during peak times.
The Solution: Automating Expense Management with Klippa
Storm Digital turned to Klippa to automate and simplify the expense management process. With Klippa’s mobile app, employees can now submit their expense claims directly from the field, capturing receipts with just a photo. Managers approve claims quickly, and the finance department seamlessly processes them with just a few clicks, thanks to integration with Exact Online. This automation eliminated the need for manual entry, drastically reducing administrative effort and time.
Why Klippa Was Chosen
Storm Digital chose Klippa for two main reasons: First, the ease of use offered by the mobile app, which allows employees to submit claims simply by taking a photo. Second, the guidance provided by Robert-Jan, co-founder and product specialist at Klippa, who supported them throughout the implementation process. His expertise and advice helped ensure a smooth and efficient rollout.
“Klippa’s solution not only simplified the expense process but also gave our team peace of mind. The integration with Exact Online was seamless, and the advice from Robert-Jan was invaluable in making the implementation smooth.”
