We are happy to announce that Concur, a global leader in employee spend management, has chosen Hurley Travel Experts to be a fulfillment agency for their on-line booking tool Cliqbook. Employee spending has a huge impact on your bottom line. Aberdeen Research has found that travel & entertainment expenses typically account for between 8% and 10% of total operating expenses. And the biggest challenge facing finance executives and travel managers is the lack of compliance with T & E policies. On average, approximately 20% of T&E spend is out of policy. You can save costs on employee spending in three important ways: 1) Control the spending when it occurs 2) Drive efficiency within the transaction 3) Reduce the operational cost Visibility is key. By using a product like Concur and Cliqbook you can see where the spend is taking place, who is spending it and who is in or out of compliance with a travel policy. You have complete visibility from the beginning of a purchase through to the final invoice and reimbursement. Forward thinking organizations are solving the entire problem - either today or in stages. Concur delivers a unified solution that solves the whole problem. Concur's solution can improve compliance by over 38%, cut travel booking costs by 62%, reduce expense report processing time by 42%, and cut operational costs by 40%. A Gartner Group study reveals that "a 5% reduction in operating costs has the same P&L impact as a 30% increase in sales!"
As part of the Concur package, subscribing companies and their travel fulfillment agency use Cliqbook, their online booking tool, to book travel and report and manage travel expenses. To see if Concur and Cliqbook are an option for your organization, contact Denise Meiler at Hurley Travel Experts (207.874.7400) and click here for more details.
