A study on the adoption of corporate self-booking tools

"As a global leader in the development of corporate travel management solutions, we felt the time was right to step back from the day-to-day and carry out a proper analysis of self-booking tools (SBTs)..."

This analysis would examine how SBTs are being integrated into the business environment, and what companies need to be doing to drive adoption and fully realise the time and cost savings that these solutions can offer. It is clear that SBTs represent the lowest transactional cost method of making travel arrangements for both corporations and their travel management companies (TMCs), but... how can you increase the proportion of your company's bookings channelled through these tools? how much can a corporation actually save through using an SBT? how effective is mandating? how does corporate culture affect SBT adoption? which type of company tends to do better? All these questions and more are tackled in this global research study commissioned by Amadeus and the Business Travel Research Centre at Cranfield University. Based on a survey of over 400 travel managers, this study takes an in-depth look at adoption patterns, obstacles and drivers and identifies key strategies for getting the most out of your SBT and reducing your corporation's travel expenditure.
