Amex GBT Consulting has launched Travel Toolbox, a digital travel management platform of self-service tools specially designed for small and medium-sized enterprises {SMEs} to elevate their travel strategy. It can help them optimize their travel programs, manage costs, drive sustainability and improve traveler well-being, according to the company’s website.
In a Q&A on the website, Sara Andell, director of consulting strategy, made the following points:
- Travel Toolbox represents Amex GBT’s commitment to making professional-grade travel program expertise available and affordable to businesses of all sizes.
- The product is an innovative digital platform of DIY tools designed to make the extensive knowledge of Amex GBT’s consulting team readily available – and also automates many previously complex processes.
- It was created to be a simple and user-friendly, self-service environment where clients can access specialist insights, build and optimize their own travel program, and do it at their own convenience.
- Travel Toolbox provides an adaptable solution that meets these organizations at different stages of their travel management maturity. It presents valuable data in an easy, actionable format, giving them the ability to:
- Understand their travel program’s true impact.
- Track meaningful KPIs other than cost.
- Support traveler well-being.
- Make more informed, strategic travel decisions.
The goal, said Andell, is to enable smaller companies to approach business travel with the same level of sophistication as larger ones, regardless of their budget or resources.
