What do you need to know as a global business traveller?
The global travel landscape has seen a dramatic change in recent years and few industries or sectors have felt this more than those for whom business travel is an essential part of their working lives.
Getting from A to B, and back again, in a timely manner can literally be the difference between closing a deal, or not.
Clarity makes your business, their business. Obviously, they let you do all the actual business, but they take care of the rest…
You do the business. They do the rest.
They’re here to get you, the global business traveller, and your business moving.
With Clarity providing fully managed solutions for their global business travellers, they ensure each and every business travel need will be conveniently located in one place… Delivered through the use of their industry leading and seamless technology, while being supported by the best and brightest business travel professionals.
They understand that when it comes to business travel, the devil really is in the detail. So, what should you consider before planning your next business trip?
Choose a sector specific partner.
While most business travel management companies are generalists, Clarity is a sector specific specialist. We tailor our services to each type of global business traveller.
They understand that certain professionals have slightly different requirements. Whether you’re in the energy, resource and marine sector, head off to the far corners of the globe at a moment’s notice, or are in the construction, manufacturing and infrastructure sector at home, they’ve got the travel solutions for you.
In the ERM (energy, resource and marine) sector, they know that it’s absolutely essential to get your crews to where they need to be, whatever the circumstances. That’s why they’ve got access to exclusive offshore and marine fares, which always ensure you get the best deal booked in time.
Or perhaps you’re in the manufacturing, construction and infrastructure industry at home. If so, you’ve been driving the recovery of our economy after several years of unprecedented challenges. That’s why Clarity is here to be the trusty right-hand person to lean on, ensuring that you and your teams get what they need when they need it.
Whether that be rooms on short notice for shift workers, car parks with no height restrictions or even something as seemingly simple as ensuring all your workers have a belly full of warm food before their gruelling day on site.
In short, they’re always here for you.
Choose a single provider.
As a global business traveller, the last thing you want to do is be reactive and if you’re operating across the world then the chances are that each location will have its own little nuances that can easily get in the way.
Clarity has a global network consisting of 105 different agencies worldwide, spanning 90 different markets. Their network ensures that wherever you are, you always have what you need.
The best bit? They ensure that (wherever possible) everything is pre-booked. This not only guarantees a smooth smooth journey but also consistency in each and every aspect of your trip.
As your travel management company, they’ll provide you with:
- Plane tickets – They book nearly 45,000 flights every month at Clarity, from straightforward domestic bookings that can be self-booked using Go2Book, to more complex itineraries where they recommend speaking to their travel experts to determine the most cost-effective route and ticket type for your corporate flights.
- Train tickets – They provide you with business rail travel management and direct booking access to the entire UK rail network, London Underground, Eurostar travel and International rail.
- Hotels – Their comprehensive portfolio of business travel hotels are continually expanding; due to two main advantages; content management and a diverse customer portfolio.
Coordinating travel – be it from a booking, policy or consolidation perspective – can be timely and expensive if you’re using multiple providers.
That’s why at Clarity, they bring everything you need together, in one convenient and simple travel solution.
Make use of technology to ensure a smooth journey.
Finally, we cannot stress enough the importance of technology. This may seem like a given in an increasingly digital world, but it is how the technology is used that defines its usefulness.
That’s why Clarity use a bespoke management information tool that allows you to select key information from a range of reports, quickly and efficiently to gain greater control of your travel spending.
When are people travelling? How far in advance are they booking? How are they booking and what rates are being achieved? These are all questions that the Go2Insight app has the answers to!
Their suite of technology also includes:
- Go2Book – The online business travel booking system.
- Go2Track – The tracking tool that improves the duty of care for travellers.
