What service-based companies should look for in a travel provider



The success of service-based companies relies on helping clients become more agile, streamlined, and strategic. You earn, and keep, clients’ trust by consistently delivering at the quality level they expect. And that’s precisely how a travel partner can help organizations like yours.

Just as your potential customers evaluate whether you’re the right choice to meet their objectives, you’ll want to exercise the same due diligence when choosing a software and services company for travel and expense.

Ask yourself the following questions and use the answers to guide your selection:

Is the booking tool easy to use for everyone?

Nobody wants to use clunky tools when booking their travel itineraries. One sign that booking software is easy to use is the online adoption rate. The higher the rate, the more travelers are using it.

Does the booking tool use AI to personalize search results for travelers?

Having travelers scroll through pages of irrelevant options is time consuming. Check if artificial intelligence (AI) is at the core of its booking technology. With AI driving the search, travel bookers can get customized search results based on factors like past searches and booking preferences, hotel features, and company policy. So, the best choices for each travel itinerary show up at the top of the page.

Do they have a user-friendly mobile app?

If so, make sure it meets your company’s requirements and it helps travelers effortlessly handle their travel itineraries. Travelers should be able to receive timely travel alerts when there’s a change in flights, conveniently track and submit expenses, and access real-time support with a few simple taps.

Do they have a history of satisfied customers?

Dig into the track record of the travel provider you’re considering. How many customers do they have and how happy are they? Check platforms like Trustpilot and G2 to read reviews. And make sure they’re able to provide appropriate service for your employees whether they’re a contractor or CEO.

Are they integrating travel and expense processes in ways that save your travel arrangers time?

As someone in the services field, you help your clients excel. Your travel partner should do the same for you. Look for a provider that helps your teams work more efficiently with technology that integrates booking, service, and expensing into a unified fluid experience.

And with streamlined trip approval workflows and proactive suggestions to navigate travel disruptions, employees can avoid challenges and retain client trust by showing up consistently.

Can the travel provider support business growth?

If you aim to stay ahead of the curve, it’s a good idea to enhance your travel program throughout every growth phase. Go for a travel partner that provides you with global support, a vast marketplace of travel providers, and a dedicated account manager with travel tips. They can help in shaping and tweaking a long-term strategy tailored to your unique objectives, so you can adapt and evolve alongside your clients.

How do you manage travel when clients come and go?

Travel frequency can fluctuate greatly in the services sector, depending on client load. What's effective now might not be suitable in six months. Make sure your chosen travel provider offers a flexible platform with adaptable functionality that can accommodate your evolving requirements.

Considering time is money for service-based organizations, the travel partner should help you optimize costs

Do they provide you with great discounts and perks on flights, hotels and car rentals?


Your travel provider should be able to optimize their volume of travel suppliers to bring you additional savings on business trips, along with added amenities like complimentary breakfast at the hotel. A good benchmark is about 20% savings on top air routes.1

Do they provide you with data-driven insights?

One of the benefits of centralizing your travel planning is having useful data to act on. Look for a travel provider that turns consolidated data from travel itineraries and credit card use into visual reports, dashboards, and benchmarking statistics to use in supplier negotiations and budget meetings.

Do they use advanced technology to save you money behind the scenes?

Opportunities to save shouldn’t end after a business trip is booked. With machine learning driving the booking platform, it searches for lower prices after booking. If lower prices are found, you can get significant savings for hotel rooms and flights.

Make sure they help you care for your people so they can care for your clients

Does the booking tool have self-help features?


Whether they're a full-time consultant or a contractor, travelers often require speedy responses to simple questions like, "What time is hotel check-in?”, “Can I bring a carry-on?” or "Can I get my boarding pass?” Look for a travel provider that offers a virtual agent - that allows them to ask questions in plain language and get quick responses. With instant chat readily available, they can spend less time waiting on hold and more time focusing on clients.

Will your travelers be able to talk to an actual person for assistance?

Make sure your travel provider offers live support agents to assist travelers on complex issues or itineraries, as well as self-service. Having both options means travelers can be supported 24/7 – from laptop to phone – in a few simple taps.

Will the travel provider help keep your travelers safe?

Some travel providers provide you with an automated trip approval system that notifies managers when travelers try to book a trip to a high-risk destination. Other providers help you create a risk-averse travel policy. You can also get access to a risk map that lets you quickly pinpoint a traveler’s location and communicate with them when there’s a safety threat. You’re in good hands when you can find a travel provider that offers you all those capabilities.

Will your booking tool help encourage compliance to your travel policy?

A good user experience is key to making that happen. With machine learning built into the booking platform, travel bookers will find the flights and hotels that comply with their travel policy (and personal preferences) in their search results. Look for a travel provider with a booking tool that makes it intuitive to book a trip within travel policy guidelines. Having visual cues and alerts in the tool to naturally guide travelers toward smart choices is also a plus.

Will they help you reach your company’s sustainability targets?

With sustainability features in the booking tool, travelers can stay on top of the carbon impact of their booking decisions. Green flags and emission data can help steer them toward carbon-smart choices. Also, having reporting tools that help you monitor carbon emissions for flights, trains, hotels and car rentals will enable you to track against your sustainability targets.

From easy bookings to emission data, there are so many ways you benefit from a travel partner that leads in software and service. So, now that you know the main advantages, dive deeper into AI-enabled travel software and how it can help your business.
