Corporate travel programme tracking service launched
A new management information service has been introduced by online corporate booking firm GetThere.
Customised Reporting is designed to give procurement and travel managers a quick and easy way to measure and track the performance of their global travel programme, according to GetThere.
Tailored for each customer, combined or consolidated management information is available on a global, regional, country or individual site basis. Companies are able to view both pre-ticketing travel patterns and final travel spend.
Floyd Widener, European vice president of GetThere and corporate travel at Sabre Travel Network, claimed Customised Reporting would enable corporate customers to better manage their programmes by using their own performance indicators and profitability metrics.
He said: “Corporations can now develop action plans to optimise their own performance in areas such as online adoption, travel policy compliance or leveraging supplier agreements.
“We can analyse and consolidate statistics regardless of who the TMC partner is and which GDS is used. Furthermore, we have the ability to do this for travel booked both online and offline.”
The add-on service comes in two offerings: Synopsis Reporting, which provides a set of standard report templates, and Synopsis Custom Reporting, which offers fully customisable reports. A top line summary with more detailed information behind it is also available.
