Taking care of the details and taking the lead with SAP Concur Solutions.

Prior to 2019, the role of travel manager required a lot of tactical thinking and hard work – developing your organization’s travel policies and programs, looking after all travel arrangements, and managing relationships with your TMC and vendors. Then Covid-19 happened, and everything changed. These days, as corporate travel has returned, your job has taken on more of a strategic approach (on top of the tactical responsibilities already on your plate).

So, it’s no surprise that 99% of travel managers say their job will be more challenging in the next 12 months due to:

  • Inflationary impacts increasing costs for the same amount of travel (41%)*
  • Ensuring traveler safety in areas becoming increasingly hostile to marginalized groups (38%)*
  • Pressure to report more on travel emissions (28%)*
  • Travelers booking supplier direct (31%)

In this guide, we look at the issues you’re facing right now:

  • Achieving ROI
  • Driving sustainability and DEI
  • Improving the employee experience
  • Managing multi-channel bookings

And we show you how SAP Concur solutions help you handle it all – including highlighting our latest innovations – to help you be the strategic leader your organization needs.
