The Texas A&M University System is currently piloting a new travel and expense system, Emburse Expense (Chrome River). This will be implemented across the A&M System from January to May 2025.
In our previous communication, we provided the opportunity to attend the Emburse Expense Overview and Feedback Sessions. These sessions were attended by more than 5,000 participants and provided valuable feedback used to finalize the application's configuration.
Currently, we're piloting the application with a small but representative set of users. If all goes as expected in the pilot phase, we will begin the Systemwide rollout during the week of Jan. 27 and continue through mid-April. This is a phased approach, so please review the implementation schedule to understand the date of go-live for your respective college, school, division or System member.
Training will be provided during your go-live week. Also, you will receive a new credit card during, or just before, your scheduled training week. It will be distributed by the implementation coordinator for your respective unit. You can begin using your new card as soon as you receive it. New "One" card transactions will feed into the cardholder's profile in Emburse Expense. The existing cards will remain active until mid-April and will continue to feed into Concur during this transitionary period.
In addition to the training provided during the week of go-live, resources are available online and offer guidance for cardholders or delegates as they learn and use Emburse Expense. In addition, the new application offers interactive user-guided walkthroughs and a chat feature.
