DUBAI, 04 November 2008 – BCD Corporate Travel, one of the world’s largest global travel management companies, was chosen as the winner of the annual Innovation Award at this year’s Business Travel Show in Dubai, Oct. 20-21. The company had been nominated for its proprietary solution, TripSourceTM: NetSearch, which integrates Webonly fares into clients’ managed travel programs via the agent’s desktop environment. The Innovation Award recognizes innovation, ingenuity and true leadership in the business travel industry; the winner is selected by Business Travel Show visitors and members of the travel industry. BCD Corporate Travel was announced as the award winner in a special ceremony at the Business Travel Show’s evening event. Greg O’Neil, senior vice president and managing director, Growth & Emerging Markets, for BCD Travel accepted the award on behalf of the company. O’Neil said: “The Innovation Award is a great honor, and reflects the interest shown in BCD Travel’s TripSource: NetSearch, over the course of the Business Travel Show. This solution responds to corporations’ need to make often fragmented inventory available to travelers without sacrificing the benefits of a managed travel program, especially in emerging markets. TripSource: NetSearch enables greater productivity for our clients by reducing the time that travelers and travel arrangers spend searching for fare quotes from multiple sources. The search and purchase functionalities deliver consistency, compliance and savings objectives.” The award caps a year of strong growth and successful strategy for BCD Corporate Travel in the Middle East. The company’s commitment to innovation, technology and outstanding customer service has quickly achieved results, with significant new client wins, a widely recognized brand and a unique approach to streamline operational processes all playing their part. In some markets, BCD Travel growth has exceeded 200 percent over 2007. “BCD Travel has established itself as a leading business travel specialist in the Middle East,” said O’Neil. “We have invested significant resources to facilitate streamlined and comprehensive service across multiple markets for our customers. In addition to TripSource: NetSearch, for example, clients can also take advantage of DecisionSource®, which delivers managed travel data throughout the reservation lifecycle to improve business practices, and TripSource: Profile Manager, a Web-based, automated traveler profile system that is fully synchronized with the client’s reservation system, online booking tool and other data sources.” |
