SINGAPORE - Media OutReach - 17 March 2020
- Business travel is becoming essential to organizational growth, with the
Global Business Travel Association predicting that work-related travel
expenditures will surpass US$1.7 trillion by 2022. However, booking hotels and
flights, worrying about unavailability, and spending a tremendous amount of
time consolidating travel expenses can put employees off.
Companies have to restructure
their corporate travel programs so that employees can feel more productive on
trips. What would work is a streamlined corporate travel management interface
for planning, booking and expense recording, which emerging services provider
EzBizTrip has an innovative solution for.
More productive trips by saving
time and costs
For small and medium-sized
enterprises, which the corporate travel platform wants to reach out to, trip planning and claims submission can
stretch employees to their limits.
"On average, business travelers
spend at least 20 minutes trying to file and manage their expenses from a
three-day work trip," shared Takaya Tomose, Chief Executive Officer of
EzBizTrip, who has reached out to travelers from Singapore, Vietnam and
Indonesia. "I attend business trips about 180 days in a year and I've always
felt that arranging the trip and sorting my travel expenses wasted my precious
time. That amount of time would be more useful if spent on doing actual work
and being productive."
Apart from sending trip requests
to their management teams, corporate travelers can create itineraries on
EzBizTrip with a Smart Suggestion system. Underpinned
by recommendation engines, the system provides travelers with personalized
results that allow them to book swiftly and with certainty. They can also accurately record and submit all
expenses on the go by snapping a photo of receipts and uploading them onto the
platform. Furthermore, travelers can easily keep track of their expenses
through automated expenditure reports and ensure they do not go beyond the
budget.
The business travel platform also
rewards employees with products and services after redeeming points earned from
cost savings when they use the program. By encouraging smarter savings through
rewards, companies can better manage budgets for corporate trips and overall
financial spending.
Corporate travel management
services offered by platforms like EzBizTrip support a growing trend in the
employment sector which was once a niche activity. Only time will tell when
such a solution is adapted to meet the needs of different travelers, such as
those on educational trips and medical missions.
