“Navigating The New Normal”

 Why You Need a Travel Management Company

Whether you are a small business or a global conglomerate, the corporate travel landscape has never looked so foreign. In fact, an astounding 96 percent of travel managers surveyed by SAP Concur felt that their companies were not adequately prepared to tackle the travel problems posed by the COVID-19 pandemic.

To successfully navigate this new terrain of unexplored opportunities and challenging pitfalls, businesses must first find the right tools and strategic partners for support.  We can provide both of these: innovative tools and expert partnership. Below we’ve outlined a few key reasons why working with us is critical to the recovery of your travel program and to helping you meet your business goals.

Mitigate Risk and Keep Travellers Safe

The biggest concern to the future of corporate travel is to ensure the safety and wellness of employees.  The corporate traveller must feel safe as they return to the road.  You must build Trust and Confidence in your travel program or its potential recovery will be significantly compromised.

Uniglobe provides essential tools for your company’s compliance with duty of care responsibilities.  Manage your company’s liability by insisting travellers book through your private program online in a controlled and safe environment.

Uniglobe Travel can help you manage risks and support your program with end-to-end processes to ensure traveller safety.  Including:

• E-travel Advisories
• E-travel tracker dashboard
• E-travel tracker map
• E-travel reports and traveller contact details

Uniglobe Travel has also created easy to access Covid-19 Information pages on our website that guides employees on the road through the new travel journey and outlines the most recent requirements and restrictions.

Manage Traveller Experience

Establishing clear safety parameters provides a strong base for creating travel experiences that meet the needs and expectations of each and every traveller. We can provide a consistent but flexible approach to creating a smooth and comprehensive experience.

We focus on delivering exceptional service and engaging travellers using a range of technologies and methods including:

• Multichannel reservations and online technologies, including personal traveller advisor support
• Automated unused ticket management
• 24/7 traveller support
• Quality Control on all reservations

Increase Efficiency through Technology

Today’s travel managers will be tasked to do more with less. Many organizations now have smaller support teams or reduced hours while facing added travel restrictions and advisories to evaluate. This is a daunting reality to consider, but investing in the right tools and technology can help streamline workflow.

Let us assess your current tools and recommend services you will need to meet the expectations of the new normal.
