Corporate Travel & Expense Management Forum: Spring 2010 | ||||||
Where: Hesperia London Victoria Hotel Theme for day - Re-engineering the Buying Process Session one - 'The Changing Face of the Travel Transaction' VAT changes, APD increases and the unbundling of product costs are all making cost allocation of the travel transaction ever more complex and difficult to account for. The panel will explore how best to understand and untangle this process. Session two - 'Who delivers What Management Information?' This session looks at the various sources of management information for both travel and meetings: from cards through TMCs to the suppliers themselves. Who supplies what and how can this data be organised to best suit a companies reporting needs? Session three - 'Comparing and Benchmarking Suppliers: How, Why and When?' The panel will consider the increasing benefits of regular reviews of suppliers in a buyers market, the dynamic of competition and 'cost versus value' together with the new tools for comparing an ever more complex array of products and services. Session four - the Buyer Speakeasy ... which, as always, is expected to be a very lively affair, following on from the discussions above. The day will close at 1615.
