What are the pitfalls and benefits of each approach to business travel?
Unmanaged Corporate Travel Arrangements
The unmanaged approach to business travel can be extremely costly. Imagine the amount of time spent trying to find the best rates across multiple booking channels for each itinerary in your travel program. A significant drain on your resources, it's also incredibly challenging for your travel manager to juggle your company's travel policy and business travelers' preferences.It can also have a knock-on effect on the quality of your business trips. Overstretched travel managers will have to make quick decisions resulting in arrangements that leave corporate travelers stressed out and unsatisfied. Plus, it's tough for individual organizations to avail of the contracted rates that a traditional TMC or OBT can access.
