Business Travel Services

We offer a true and comprehensive business travel management service that not only includes reservations but also the strategic vision and management that ensures an ever improving, evolving service offering. We also pride ourselves on offering the "best of both world's" namely the industry's highest calibre business travel consultants coupled with the world's leading online self-booking technologies.

 


SPECIALISED BUSINESS TRAVEL SERVICES

YOUR TRAVEL TEAM

Nobody enjoys the call centre experience and in an industry where relationship building is key we find the concept unacceptable. How can you build a beneficial connection with a supplier if you never speak to the same person twice, what do they know about your exact needs?

By working with TMG Corporate you will receive:

  • A compact team of travel experts personally managing your account on both a day to day basis but also at a strategic development level
  • A 'one stop shop' for all your business travel requirements
  • Someone at the end of the phone/ email who knows your name, demands and exact needs of your company
  • An industry leading Service Level Agreement
  • Friendly, highly skilled professionals at your service 24 hours a day, 7 days a week

We pride ourselves on the quality of our employees and in an industry where high levels of staff turnover abound we are delighted, and proud, to report that our business travel consultants and management team have been with us for on average over 10 years.

This not only allows us to offer a high level of continuity to our clients but also ensures that our business travel teams are full of experience not only in the provision of business travel services but also providing the highest levels of service to which our clients have become accustomed.

As a company we hold the Investor in People accreditation as a sign of our ongoing commitment to recruiting, developing and retaining the best people.

ONLINE BOOKING SUITE

For well over 10 years now online booking has been proclaimed as the future of business travel. Although the initial expectations of online 'take-up' have proved to be well wide of the mark at TMG Corporate we have been quietly and diligently investing in online booking technology for the benefit of our clients.

We're not bandwagon jumpers and don't chase the latest fads, our approach to technology is to thoroughly review our options and only invest in options that are going to provide a true and demonstrable benefit to both us as a business and our clients. As such, we now offer a comprehensive suite of online booking tools that have been developed with the business traveller in mind.

Simple to use yet highly powerful an online environment that offers your bookers access to all the options, rates and fares whilst also managing the booking process in a manner that strictly sits within your corporate travel policy and authorisation process.

We'll provide full and ongoing training on our tools, via Webex or at your premises- whichever is your preference. You will also be safe in the knowledge that your account management team is just a quick and simple phone call away should you need any advice or have a booking query and we won't charge you any arbitrary fees for seeking online support!

For those companies looking to move their bookers away from a traditional travel procurement approach (by phone to their travel team) to exploit savings opportunities then we have highly sophisticated, highly tested change management techniques that lead to significantly increased levels of online adoption that are, crucially, sustainable.

We hold regular Webex demonstrations of our online tools allowing potential users to see their power in action to find out about the next session or for a personal demonstration please contact our online team.

SMARTPHONE RESERVATIONS

In line with our stated commitment to develop and implement the latest technology we have listened to the wishes of our clients and recently launched our Smartphone hotel booking tool.

Put simply, TMG Corporate clients can now make accommodation reservations direct from their Smartphone (iPhone, Blackberry etc). All reservations made via this method, as with all bookings made through TMG Corporate, will be strictly within the 'constraints' of your business travel policy.

This new solution is perfect for travellers 'on the go' who may need to make last minute hotel bookings. If a scheduled meeting goes on way beyond expectations your travellers can login to the booking tool and search for the nearest hotels via GPS and secure their room for the night straight away.
