The Big Ten Conference Adopts ExpenseWire.com.

January 23, 2008 – ExpenseWire.com announced today that the Big Ten Conference will be among the latest organizations and corporations to adopt ExpenseWire.  Founded in 1896, the Big Ten has sustained a comprehensive set of shared practices and policies that enforce the priority of academics in student-athletes' lives and emphasize the values of integrity, fairness and competitiveness.

“This will greatly help with our expense reimbursement processes. I foresee the reimbursement cycles to be noticeably shortened, “ remarked Brad Traviolia, Big Ten Conference Deputy Commissioner. “ExpenseWire’s automated process will definitely make a difference.”

Andrew Vaeth, CEO of ExpenseWire.com, confirmed that this is a very important collaboration for ExpenseWire also. “We are thrilled to be able to work with such a significant organization, not just as fans of their member institutions, but also in light of the fact of what the Big Ten does.” He added, “We will have the opportunity to help them streamline their processes, and this will enable them to focus even more on the important work they do.”
