The Travel Challenge

With headquarters based in New Zealand and extended operations branching to four corners of the world, company staff and corporate personnel often found themselves requiring travel to specific locations, at short notice and within tight time frames. With the need to create elaborate travel schedules, this additional workload began to drain the companies resources and time, which is why Southern Spars decided to bring an expert on board – Corporate Traveller – helping to invest considerable attention, knowledge and energy into effectively managing their comprehensive travel needs.

The Solution

Since partnering with Corporate Traveller, Southern Spars have been able to offload the task of developing tailor-made travel plans, helping their staff and personnel to effectively meet their clients’ needs, promote products, communicate product updates and deliver services successfully both in New Zealand and across the globe. Throughout the process, Southern Spars was supplied a dedicated travel manager – responsible for organising and overseeing their account and delivering a personal travel management service. With continual reports generated by Corporate Traveller highlighting travel patterns, spending and missed savings, Southern Spars were then able to formulate successful company solutions as well as identifying and achieving further company savings.
 

The Results

Successfully partnering together for the past two years, Corporate Traveller has provided Southern Spars with a systematic approach to meeting all of their travel needs, as well as...

• Learned travellers favourite routes, stopovers and accommodation preferences
• Prompt assistance with urgent or complex travel enquiries
• Built a strong rapport not only with the travellers but also with the company as a whole
• Provided access to the widest range of travel options
• Supplied 24 hour emergency assistance for all travellers
• Provided effective travel solutions for unforeseen challenges.

I really value having a dedicated Corporate Traveller Travel Manager to look after my travel, which at times can be very last minute. Our Travel Manager knows all my likes and dislikes and is able to sort out all my travel arrangements with ease. Having the 24 hour service is crucial too when plans change last minute while overseas. Nothing is ever a problem.
