Latest Best Practice Roadmap Report Posted!!

While most of the industry was resting last week in advance of what promises to be an exciting year in business travel, the EXPERT INSIGHT elves were working into the wee hours of 2011 to post the last Best Practice Roadmap report of the year: Course of Action – Update Travel Policy Today.

Careful travel policy development and on-going review is essential to successful business travel management. Based on analysis of nearly 100 business travel policies in force today, the report examines existing business practices to highlight where companies likely need to develop and revise their documents and compliance strategies to best address current industry trends in business travel.

Annual subscribers to EXPERT INSIGHTS should have received the report PDF by email Friday and it is also archived right here on btX for them in the EXPERT INSIGHTS section. Any travel professional who shared a policy with us for the benchmarking can request their copy of the report at AdvisoryServices@aexp.com.

We are also offering a limited trial subscription to EXPERT INSIGHTS through the first quarter to anyone who emails before the end of January. We plan to do even more valuable work with our unparalleled aggregate business data, unique industry insight, and travel program optimization consulting experience to help companies use travel as a competitive advantage this year.

And as always if anyone has any suggestions of industry issues to investigate, please let us know! Here’s to a great 2012!!
