Successful Launch of Concur 2.0
Kudos to the project team for the successful launch of Concur 2.0!
This much-anticipated upgrade, two years in the making, was driven by extensive data analysis and feedback from UC San Diego's Tritons. The strategic goals focused on improving client experience and process efficiencies, leading to a more intuitive workflow with reduced data entry and increased transparency. Since its launch on April 8th, 2024, Concur 2.0 has facilitated 5,000 requests and 12,000 expense reports, streamlining travel and expense reconciliation.
The projected annual impact is significant: reducing over 520,000 clicks and saving 724 hours, eliminating approximately 77,000 account code mismatches and saving 6,000 hours, and preventing around 1,000 chart string validation errors, saving 16,000 clicks and 50 hours. Executive Director Heather Vinograd and Director Nikki Giaquinta expressed their gratitude to the project team and Triton community for their contributions. Concur 2.0 reflects a commitment to tailored solutions and ongoing collaboration with campus clients.
