Bringing Efficiency to Travel Management Managing corporate travel spend for mid to large scale enterprises can be a challenging task. Common problems related with corporate travel include: • Travels approved after the fact • Travelers not adhering to corporate travel policy • Unknown travel spend • Employees spending too much time booking their own travel • Lack of resources to negotiate contracts • Travel approvals not related to current budget The ATRIIS Spend Management solution enables enterprises the ability to address these issues head on, bringing new oversight and total efficiency to travel management. Through intelligent process and planning, we’re able to drive unprecedented performance for our clients.
Driving More Spend Under Management Even with best-in-class enterprises, managed travel tool adoption rates are below 60%. Consequently, at least 40% of travels are unmanaged in most enterprises. ATRIIS introduces e-procurement practices to corporate travel management and every business travel (regardless of whether it is booked online or through a travel agent) much like purchasing office supplies goes through our spend management solution. Introducing procurement practices to travel management increases savings of total annual travel spend by some 11% on average (Business Travel News, April 2009).
PROCESS - The Way It Works ATRIIS addresses the two primary aspects of corporate travel: travel spend management and planning.
Travel Spend Management • ATRIIS handles the life cycle of a business trip end-to-end. • The process starts with booking the trip flights, hotels and rental cars as well as optional peripherals (for example conference registration fees, etc.)
• When itinerary planning is complete, the employee goes to the checkout page, where trip description and additional business information required for approving the trip is submitted. • After completing the approvals required for the trip a purchase order is issued, and the itinerary items of the trip are purchased. • ATRIIS also handles any changes required for the trip en-route, these may require additional bookings, re-issue of tickets and approvals. • When the trip is complete and the traveler returns home an expense report is created containing all reimbursable items purchased. The employee adds incidental expenses and submits the report for approvals and processing.
PLANNING - End to End Solution With ATRIIS travel procurement reports and our consulting services, executives gain insight into travel spend and are able to set forth a travel procurement strategy, which is then translated into a granular travel policy to be enforced by our management solution.
