State and local governments face complex challenges regarding travel and expense management. 

These priorities require a strategic, forward-looking approach, from standardizing and simplifying procedures to controlling costs, increasing transparency and maintaining strict regulatory compliance. Travel and expense are often high-risk areas within government organizations, as non-compliance with policy can lead to significant, unexpected costs. While digital transformation plays a key role, it’s not just about implementing a new solution – it’s about empowering agencies to achieve their goals more effectively, efficiently and equitably.
