# Why use CI Azumano Business Travel?

## Traveler Safety & Security
Different things can go wrong during a trip, from missing a flight or losing a passport to getting into an accident or getting stranded due to a natural calamity. As a business and an organization with a duty of care, preparing for such circumstances helps ensure your traveler’s safety and protects your company from significant losses.
Working with a corporate travel company like CI Azumano Business enables you to prepare for these unexpected challenges and more. Your dedicated travel agent with us uses the most up-to-date continuity and risk management tools to provide you and your travelers with comprehensive assistance until their safe return.
## Travel Spend Visibiltiy
Retrieving your organization’s travel and expense information does not have to be overwhelming, laborious, and time-consuming.
With our travel management solution, you get an integrated platform that gathers all your travel expense reports and other information in one convenient database. When you have all the data you need in one place, analyzing purchasing decisions, expediting expense reimbursements, and creating reports on travel expenditures become a breeze.
That’s not all — our robust travel management reporting suite gives you a closer look at how your travel budget is being spent. Identify areas of spend waste, look for opportunities to drive savings, and make smart organization-wide decisions based on detailed data.
## 24x7x365 Support
Even the most meticulously planned trip can face challenges, like flight delays or cancellations. And with factors like time zone differences and your employees at the office having their own workload to attend to, finding a point person to watch over your traveling group can be challenging.
Your corporate travel agent at CI Azumano can function as an always-on support you can rely on to help solve issues when your employees are traveling. From rearranging canceled flights and finding alternative routes to offering real-time advice on severe weather, they are available around the clock to offer proactive solutions that keep your travelers safe and secure.
# Our Travel Management Services
* #### Corporate Travel Consultant
  When you’re building valuable client relationships, closing deals, and attending important events, getting support from experienced corporate travel consultants is key to driving your business forward.
  At CI Azumano, your corporate travel agent can enhance your and your employees’ travel experience by guiding you through instituting a company travel policy tailored to your organization’s nature and requirements.
  Corporate travel agents can also help by driving travel policy adoption by introducing an automated booking and expense management platform.
  Lastly, they can help by strategizing around supplier sourcing so you can decrease travel expenses.
* #### Corporate Risk Management
  Severe weather, political instability, and public health emergencies can derail business travel plans and put your employees in a tight spot.
  As your trusted corporate travel company, we use modern technology to identify, prevent, and react to any risks or situations your travelers may encounter throughout their trip. We specifically look at region-specific safety warnings, upcoming events, and even global affairs that may affect your traveling group based on their current location for up-to-the-minute safety tracking.
  They will also receive helpful information such as weather updates, travel advisories, and quarantine guidelines to ensure their trip goes as smoothly as possible.
* #### Travel Supplier Management
  Our award-winning corporate travel agents have established a solid network of the best suppliers across states and countries. Take advantage of our acquired data, insights, and experience to build supplier relationships that maximize your travel budget and drive the most meaningful savings. There are also opportunities for you to negotiate below market rates and explore other tactics so you can get the most out of every trip.
* #### Travel Policy Management
  For many organizations, developing corporate travel policies is a challenge — implementing them is another.
  The travel management consultants at CI Azumano are here to guide you in developing a travel policy that’s not only robust and progressive but also convenient for your travelers. On top of that, our customizable suite of tools helps keep every employee compliant, protected, and engaged through 24-hour support.
* #### Integrated Travel & Expense
  With T&E as one of the most significant items in your budget besides labor expenses, it only makes sense for you to find ways to maximize it. The catch is that the processes and policies governing T&E reimbursement in most companies often involve manually working through mountains of receipts, spreadsheets, and exhausting back-and-forth emails.
  CI Azumano Business Travel offers an integrated T&E solution to give you a single platform containing up-to-date and accurate data. The software allows you to painlessly retrieve the information you need, pinpoint preferred suppliers, streamline the management process, and, most importantly, drive employee satisfaction.
* #### Traveler Tools & Technologies
  When running a growing business, the last thing you need is a time-consuming, laborious travel and expense management process.
  With our comprehensive travel hub, you can increase traveler satisfaction and productivity through fast and hassle-free booking by phone, online, or mobile booking.
  You’ll be able to gather all travel details into one online itinerary.
  You can simplify the completion of expense reports.
  You’ll also have the ability to review unusual or non-compliant travel plans before ticketing or the trip itself to prevent problems.
  Lastly, you can approve trips from your desktop or mobile, wherever you are.
## CI Azumano Business Travel is proud to be an SAP® Concur® Elite Partner.

## Benefits of Using a Corporate Travel Management Company
#### Enjoy an Array of Savings
Working with a corporate travel company lets you enjoy significant savings on flights, accommodation, group bookings, events, and door-to-door travel. You get to tap their established expertise and partnerships to easily find preferred suppliers and consolidate your travel plans around them.
Your dedicated agents can negotiate with hotel and airline suppliers for you, organizing favorable and mutually beneficial booking arrangements that suit your needs and schedule.
#### **Improve Your Business Trips’ ROI**
While there is indeed an initial cost to working with a corporate travel management company, it pays itself back by saving you time, allowing you to focus on your core competencies, and optimizing your expenses.
The tools and technologies you gain access to help your organization:
* Understand what your travel spend looks like
* Make data-driven decisions effortlessly
* Arrange flights and accommodations for the best price
* Account for everything down to the last receipt
#### **Travel and Work More Efficiently**
You’re paying your top-performing employees to contribute to your business’s growth — not to use their valuable time for organizing trips and manually recording expenses.
With a corporate travel company supporting you and your travelers, everyone can concentrate their time and energy on their specialties without your travel and expense management falling into disarray. Professional travel agents utilize their tools, connections, and specific skills to create efficient travel plans for you.
#### **Stay Compliant**
A great deal of work goes into business travel compliance, and the slightest mistake can put your organization at risk of issues with tax and immigration compliance, among many others. Consulting with an experienced corporate travel agent gives you the expert advice you need to create or update your existing policy according to current best practices in the industry.
Most importantly, corporate travel management companies use automated tools to ensure your policies are integrated throughout your processes — and supported by your travelers.
