Building a Personalized Travel Program

Many companies realize the importance of building a structured travel program to save costs and maximize their investment, but are not ready to commit to a fully managed program. Travel Incorporated is here to help guide you towards the most appropriate levels of compliance that suit your current corporate culture and cost savings objectives.

Cost-Savings

Cost Savings

Understanding Your Business. TI starts by listening to your needs and undertaking an analysis of your travel spend, traveler behavior, and company culture. We consult to identify immediate areas of cost savings, and we encourage traveler engagement through simple, relatable communication.

Self-Service-tools

Self-Service Tools

Enabling the Self-Service Traveler. We work to gradually shift your travelers’ buying behavior and decisions by incorporating self-service tools for online booking, mobile itinerary management, and alert notifications, putting the power in your travelers’ hands.

Real-Time-Data

Real-Time Data

Data that is Actionable. You need the ability to access your travel spend information without having to wait for a monthly or quarterly report to be sent to you. TI provides real-time graphical analytics at your fingertips for no additional charge – available to you when you need it.

Strengthening – Managed Travel Program

Travel programs with a defined travel policy have set a solid structural foundation, and are prime to focus on specific cost savings initiatives. Online adoption must go beyond air bookings and include increasing hotel attachment for the majority of overnight stays. Understanding your travelers’ buying patterns will dictate the areas of further cost-saving opportunities and expand your preferred partner programs. Travel Incorporated technology automates quality control and improves efficiency across all booking channels, reducing your cost at every step.

Value-Calculators

Value Calculators

Real-time, graphical data analytics is available to help you understand your travelers’ current booking behaviors and identify opportunities for further year-over-year savings. TI provides tools that include “what if” scenarios through value calculators to help you gauge the impact by simple shifts in travel behavior. Whether it is increasing 7- and 14-day advance purchase, or benefitting from our automated reissue of unused ticket claims, Travel Incorporated has the tools you need to not only set your goals but to track and deliver the savings.

Preferred-Partner-Discounts

Preferred Partner Discounts

Preferred partner agreements play a key role in tailoring your travel program and are not only about the discount you can receive but how your choices complement your corporate culture. TI works with you to identify benefits to traveler loyalty programs, highlighting hotels near all corporate offices, and offering ridesharing options. Having the right relationships matter, and Travel Incorporated will be your guide.

Balancing-Cost-and-Culture

Balancing Cost and Culture

Unless you have a completely mandated program whereby you only reimburse expenses when booked within policy, the traveler, in the end, will dictate the effectiveness of your program. Travel Incorporated encourages compliance by providing the self-service traveler with the digital technology and tools they expect, while providing you the tools to easily track their compliance. Taking the partners, policy, and traveler-specific requests into consideration unifies your program and is the foundation for success.

Maintaining – Optimized Travel Program

Mature travel departments typically have full-time resources in place and efficiently manage a cost-effective program. In most instances, the focus is maintaining current levels, yet further opportunity for global consolidation, improved duty of care, and long-tail savings should be considered. Travel Incorporated assists by taking a holistic view of your global program, proactively identifying shifts in spend, enhancing traveler safety, and identifying unique savings opportunities.

Global

Today’s global travel program faces a myriad of challenges from consistency in reporting, traveler satisfaction, and cultural nuances, to quality and standardized service levels across each region. Travel Incorporated is your single hand to shake for all your global needs. Your Global Client Success Manager ensures your regional service delivery and local content is in place, while overseeing the consolidation of your global data with consistency while providing regional detail by country.

Duty-of-Care

Duty of Care

Traveler safety and security is not an option, it is a social responsibility. Once your program is defined, communication and ease of access for all travelers around the world is required. Travel Incorporated provides relevant alerts identifying you are either near or directly impacted by an emergency. Your travelers can have visual street views and mapping to the nearest consulate or hospital – all through their mobile device.

Long-Tail-Savings

Long-Tail Savings

Most optimized programs have secured healthy preferred partner discounts for their air, hotel, and rental car vendors, yet are always searching for opportunities to extend further cost savings. Travel Incorporated brings best practices in policy considerations for food and beverage limits, new vendor partners for consideration in rideshare or off-airport parking, and opportunities to reduce the risk of fraud. Today’s travel industry is in constant change, and TI stays ahead of the curve.
