Fyle and Sensiba LLP have partnered to help organizations by reducing time to submit receipts by almost 50% and empowering finance teams with real-time spend analytics.

NEWARK, Del., November 6, 2023 /PRNewswire/ Fyle Inc, the expense management platform, has partnered with Sensiba LLP, a “Top 100 Accounting Firm” specializing in tax, audit, and consulting services, to automate and deliver expense reporting and credit card reconciliation solutions.

Fyle’s ability to integrate with all credit cards to provide real-time feeds, and its robust two-way integration with Sage Intacct and QuickBooks Online, made it easy for Sensiba to select Fyle as a technology partner. When employees spend on their cards, they’re notified immediately via text, email, or Slack. They can then reply to the message with a picture of the receipt and Fyle matches it to the right expense instantly.

This partnership compliments and expands Sensiba’s software and service practices that already include Sage Intacct and outsourced accounting. It enables AI expense management to deliver spend insights and offer more control to finance leaders.

“We have been working to build a world where not a single second is spent managing expenses. Administering staff expenses isn’t core to anyone’s role, but it’s time-consuming and frustrating”, said Yashwanth Madhusudan, CEO, Fyle. “We look forward to working closely with the Sensiba team to bring the combined best-in-class solution to businesses in the US.”

“Fyle’s AI-enabled expense management eliminates time consulting and delayed expense reporting while delivering spend analytics to finance,” said Kevin Shives, Partner, Sensiba. “It can be used standalone or alongside financial management solutions like Sage Intacct and QuickBooks Online. By partnering with Fyle, we can help a broader range of businesses manage their expenses, categorize financials, and develop scalable processes for controlling the spending across a company. Strong financial operations have to start with a strong foundation of processes, technology, and people. ”

Sensiba, one of the region’s top 20 accounting firms, announced today the expansion of its BlackLine implementation capabilities and the move from Alliances Partner to a BlackLine Gold Solution Provider.

Together, Sensiba and BlackLine will help mid-market companies transform their existing finance and accounting (F&A) departments into true modern accounting organizations, with Sensiba adding BlackLine’s cloud-based financial close and accounts receivable automation solutions to the product portfolio it offers to current and prospective customers.

While enterprise resource planning (ERP) and business intelligence (BI) systems collect, track and analyze business data, they do not automate account reconciliations and other critical F&A processes. BlackLine’s platform arms solution providers with a solution to offer clients that replaces manual spreadsheet-based processes and helps improve data accuracy, visibility and control.

“We see a need within our mid-market client base for more automated and transparent processes, and BlackLine provides a rapid, 90-day implementation approach and predictable costs,” says Consulting Partner Kevin Shives. “As a BlackLine Gold Partner, we can better help our clients save time, reduce risk and operate more strategically.”

As part of its capabilities expansion, Sensiba has appointed Brandon Raborn as its BlackLine Practice Lead. Raborn has nearly a decade of experience facilitating the design and implementation of BlackLine solutions that support and streamline the day-to-day tasks of finance teams. Raborn, a CPA, works with clients of all sizes from mid-market organizations to Fortune 500 companies across various industries, with an emphasis in energy, retail, banking, technology, insurance, and manufacturing.

“I’m delighted to join Sensiba because we share a vision of how BlackLine can help our clients save time and improve their controls by eliminating manual close processes,” Raborn says. “BlackLine’s Modern Accounting Playbook Implementation Methodology provides a deliberate adoption path that allows companies to unlock value quickly with core functionality in account reconciliations, task management and bank matching, and expanding its adoption to further support their business strategy.”

“BlackLine is thrilled to expand our partnership with Sensiba. Their deep accounting and business consulting knowledge pair perfectly with BlackLine’s financial operations management platform and Solution Provider Partner program. Together we are looking forward to helping customers streamline and automate their close.” – Jess Tan, RVP, ISV/Cloud and Solution Providers at BlackLine.
