Panasonic Gains Global Expense Harmony with MXP
Panasonic Industry Europe streamlined travel and expense processes with MXP, enhancing efficiency, compliance, and sustainability through a centralised digital solution.

Context
Panasonic Industry Europe set out to modernise and streamline its travel and expense processes by moving away from fragmented, manual systems. With a strong focus on improving operational efficiency, the company prioritised implementing a digital workflow that could support end-to-end visibility and enable consistent, controlled expense management.
The challenge
Before adopting MXP by Mobilexpense, some of Panasonic Industry Europe’s offices (particularly smaller locations) relied on local, manual processes to manage expenses. These setups often involved handing over physical documents and receipts directly to finance colleagues, which lacked standardisation and scalability.
As the business continued to grow, the need for a more structured, digital, and efficient solution became increasingly clear.
The solution
To address the need for structure, automation, and cross-entity consistency, Michael and his team turned to MXP. With pre-trip approval and expense capture all integrated into one platform, the company could streamline travel spend and ensure compliance.
“A big advantage is that Mobilexpense reflects every step of the process—travel arrangement to expense management. All the elements are there. The platform is also flexible and responsive to our changing needs.”

Key capabilities:
- End-to-end flow from travel request to expense management
- Country-specific configuration (e.g. employees automatically receiving Bescheinigung A1 in Germany)
- Smart compliance checks for policy violations and missing receipts
- Integrations with existing travel and HR tools
The results
Panasonic’s team now spend far less time manually reviewing expenses thanks to automatic flagging of inconsistencies.
“Now, only 10% of the submitted expenses are required to be manually checked.”

Panasonic experienced:
- Significant reduction in manual pre-checks
- Enhanced confidence in travel visibility and compliance
- Flexible setup to accommodate different regional needs
Looking forward
Michael sees an opportunity to optimise its travel and expense operations (not just from a cost-efficiency perspective) but also with a growing focus on sustainability.
CO₂-related topics have become increasingly relevant, especially in the context of improving and modernising travel policies.
