How Smart Companies Save Money is a concise guide to expense management. The book provides a simplified approach to controlling costs at companies and organizations, including descriptions and illustrations of twenty-five specific savings tactics.



Jack Quarles, the author, draws on over fifteen years in the expense management field. During that time he has served large companies, small organizations, non-profits, and churches and delivered tens of millions of dollars in savings. He explains that saving money is not difficult if approached with the right understanding.



The book begins by explaining the strategic importance of controlling costs. Companies that do everything else right - but let their expenses get too high - may lag their competitors or even fail. Smart companies simplify their approach to saving and make a consistent practice of applying the tactics described in the book with vivid examples.
