No other company knows growth more than Monrovia. Founded in 1926, this wholesale plant company has been an industry leader in the introduction of healthier and more beautiful plants.
As their company thrived and evolved, so did their needs. They were soon in the market for a reliable travel and expense management solution to help them keep up with their expense reports and accounting. As proprietors of a saving environment, their expense management system had to be paperless, smart, and efficient.
The Problem – Challenges in Expense Reporting
At Monrovia, it is in their nature to care for the environment. So, the move to automate their expense management system was grounded on the virtues of sustainability and being eco-friendly. They partnered with Concur to help them provide a paperless expense reporting solution that suited their needs as a private company with nurseries all over the country while operating with their partner garden centers throughout the US and Canada.
However, challenges arose starting from the initial setup, with the platform presenting ease-of-use issues on top of the low-efficiency performance. Since the organization has large amounts of data to go through, speed and efficiency are key. Because of these, they encountered errors and user complaints that caused delays and costly mistakes that could add up and significantly impact the company’s overall performance in the long run.
Furthermore, there were also challenges in the reporting system itself. They found that there are only a few available reports, and considering their needs, these were inadequate.
The Solution – Taking Out the Guesswork and Maximizing Efficiency
With Concur providing challenges that clogged up what should have been a smoother workflow, Monrovia decided to make a switchover to Gorilla Expense. This time, the organization knew what worked for them and what didn’t—and Gorilla Expense was quick to comply.
According to Hilda Haddad, Controller, Monrovia, the switch to Gorilla Expense was triggered by the inefficiencies brought by inadequate reports and the overall speed of getting things done in this new automated system. However, what drew them to Gorilla Expense was not only the solution is provided, but also the clean platform, pricing, and customer service.
Usually, switchovers can be a pain in itself and companies would often end up sticking to inefficient systems rather than go through the pains of introducing a new program once again. However, with Gorilla Expense, the transition was quick and smooth.
The initial setup was quick and easy, with the implementation effectively managed by Gorilla Expense’s team. Any concerns on the project were quietly dispelled from the get-go and everything came online as planned and on
schedule.
One of the key benefits achieved is user profile management. The admin users have access to more functionality where they can impersonate users and help them if they have questions or issues. Managing scenarios after someone leaves the company is easier. Aside from this, multiple levels of approvers allowed more detailed auditing, and the split feature made things easier. This made it possible for Monrovia to finally fast-track expense reporting processes while minimizing errors at the same time.

Operating on behalf of Toyota Motor Corporation since 1985, AirFlite has been a leading name in the private aviation industry, setting new standards with its full service, fixed-base operation, offering the best in 24/7 private aircraft services and storage. Delivering service, quality, and reliability, AirFlite is looking to extend its operations to greater heights by improving productivity for its pilots and crew and achieving operational excellence by ditching its manual and tedious expense reporting system.
The Problem – Manual, High-Volume, Error-Prone & Time-Consuming Expense Reporting Process
AirFlite’s manual expense tracking procedure was tedious and hindered the efficiency of the team. Their operations involved international flights with frequent visits to their base in Japan. Pilots had to plan a detour in advance so they could submit and sign their expense reports before embarking on another trip.
Submitting expense reports on time and keeping track of T&E spendings had become a challenge, leading to inefficiencies and thereby affecting the employee morale. It had become pivotal for AirFlite to automate their expense reports and lessen the burden of expense management from pilots and managers.
The Solution – Taking Expense Reporting Process to New Heights with Gorilla Expense
AirFlite wanted to switch to a seamless and efficient expense management system that could automate their T&E expense reporting process and accounting. That’s when they switched to Gorilla Expense. With its advanced and easy-to-use features, Gorilla Expense turned AirFlite’s chaotic process to an efficient, quick, and easy process without major disruptions, making things better and easier for everyone.
Additionally, the pilots love the flexibility in being able to complete their expenses on the road (or the skies). They also love how easy and simple the application is to use. Because of the availability of expense data at the manager’s fingertips, getting more visibility into the T&E spend on a periodic basis, the manual work with expense reports reduced greatly at AirFlite.
Ever since AirFlite switched to Gorilla Expense, they have seen a visible improvement not only in their expense reports but also in their time and cost savings.
Gorilla Expense understands that pilots travel the most and it is necessary for them to have a flexible expense management system at their disposal so they can focus on soaring to great heights without taking detours.

Your employees travel to grow your business but forget to submit their expense reports on time, thereby preventing companies from getting real-time data on all company spending patterns from distinct locations. Before your organization is prevented from real-time updates, switch to Gorilla Expense.
Gorilla Expense introduces Decentralized Reporting, a feature that allows employees across an organization to report their expenses directly without relying heavily on a centralized department or individual. Designed to streamline and expedite expense reporting, this feature revolutionizes the way information is collected, verified, and shared. It also distributes responsibilities and empowers stakeholders of the organization by improving reliance on centralized approval systems.
In this blog, we will understand the aspects of decentralized reporting which include:
Empowerment: In a decentralized system, employees are given the authority to report their expenses such as travel expenses, meal expenses, office supplies, and more. This helps in reducing the bureaucracy and delays associated with centralized approval systems, thereby empowering the employees truly.
Efficiency: With a decentralized approach, expenses can be reported and approved more quickly since they don’t need to go through a central department for processing. This can lead to faster reimbursements for employees and a more efficient financial process.
Responsibility Distribution: It distributes the responsibility for managing expenses across different individuals or teams to prevent bottlenecks and reduce the workload of a single department that is responsible for processing expenses.
Transparency: This feature promotes transparency as employees directly submit their expenses and related information, leading to better accountability and compliance with the organization’s expense policies.
Policy Adherence: While empowering employees to report their expenses, it’s important to have clear expense policies in place. These policies provide guidelines for what expenses are eligible for reimbursement and help maintain consistency across the organization.
Data Accuracy: Using automated tools, such as mobile apps or online forms, can help reduce human errors in expense reporting. These tools can validate data and calculations, improving the accuracy of reported expenses.
Analytics and Insights: Organizations can gain insights into spending patterns, identify potential areas for cost-saving, and make informed decisions based on the aggregated expense data.
Central Oversight: While the process is decentralized, it’s still important to have a level of central oversight for compliance, auditing, and policy enforcement. This oversight helps maintain consistency and prevents misuse.
From eliminating single points of failure to enabling secure and tamper-proof reporting mechanisms, decentralized expense reporting brings multiple benefits to an organization.
Explore a solution like Gorilla Expense, which harmoniously integrates both decentralized reporting and centralized control for streamlined expense management for your organization.
