What is a managed travel programme?
What’s the difference between a managed and unmanaged travel programme?
7 Benefits of switching to a managed travel programme
- Centralised reporting: gives access to all types of booking data, expense management, department spend, reimbursement, and more. This enables your business to make data-driven decisions for future travel.
- Easy booking: provides an overview of popular 3rd party booking platforms accumulated on one platform—at rates you won’t find anywhere else. TravelPerk’s online booking tool has the world’s largest inventory to choose from.
- Everything under one roof: book, cancel, change, get support, view itineraries, get directions, all from one mobile app
- Travel policies: need to be adhered to for your travel programme to scale. A managed travel programme ensures exactly that.
- Expert consulting via in-house travel specialists: managed travel programme teams can provide insights and ideas to optimise your travel spend and make cost savings while maintaining a best-in-class travel experience.
- Vendor and invoice consolidation is tricky with unmanaged programs. Chasing down VAT receipts, juggling invoices, and managing expense reporting for airfares are just a few on the list.A TMC handles all of this when you opt for a managed travel programme while benchmarking spend goals and making travel process enhancements along the way.
- Risk management: ensures you’re looking after your employees as best as possible the second they step outside your (digital) offices. Crisis management features deliver real-time alerts on locations important to your travellers and deliver a duty of care to your team.
