RainMaker Software, Inc., a Microsoft Gold Certified Partner and leading full service provider of Financial, Practice Management and Business Intelligence software for mid-large sized law firms announced a partnership with Chrome River, a new expense reporting and management service provider for professional service organizations. Now available to RainMaker clients, this online expense management service provides comprehensive, rules-based workflows that streamline the expense recording, approval and cost recovery process.
Developed specifically for law firms, Chrome River's intuitive web-based software integrates with all RainMaker's financial management systems to provide numerous benefits related to billable and non-billable expenses, including:
| • | Automation - business process engine provides
automatic routing based on firm-specified business rules
to streamline the entire expense tracking and management
process. |
| • | Improved Cost Recovery - allows for automatic capture of billable versus non-billable expense and attachment of scanned back-up receipts for quick and easy invoicing. |
| • | Reduced Costs - automation reduces soft costs associated with manual administrative tasks (e.g. preparing reports, comparing against policy). |
| • | Compliance - workflows developed to support firm business rules and processes (e.g. expense routing & approvals), along with prompts and reminders, ensure proper handling. |
| • | Customer Satisfaction - helps firms to meet client-defined billing requirements. |
| • | Employee Satisfaction - intuitive design and ease-of-use make expense tracking and processing easier, and staff reimbursements faster and more accurate. |
"When developing the Chrome River application for law firms, our goal was to apply our business process and rules engines to dramatically reduce the complexities that firms experience when it comes to expense management," said Alan Rich, Founder and CEO of Chrome River. "We've thought through every aspect to provide maximum flexibility while maintaining efficiency, from allowing multi-matter billing with independent descriptions, to accommodating multi-language and multi-currency firm environments."
"Our partnership with Chrome River continues our commitment to providing RainMaker clients with value-added services to make their business operate more efficiently. Chrome River's expense management offering will be especially useful for our clients that have a lot of attorney travel," said RainMaker President, Jim Hammond.
