Opportunities and Tactics

Shani DeSantis Account Manager Egencia

31 | Egencia Confidential

Opportunities in 2010

1.  Policy and education   Foundation for program success

  Mirror corporate culture

  Guidelines for acceptable spending

  Reinforcement = higher compliance

2.  Negotiating Tactics   Focus on strength and policy management

  Focus on ability to drive spend to preferred suppliers at time of booking

  Incremental revenue opportunities for hotel(s) and/or chains

  Past performance is not always indicative of future behavior

32 | Egencia Confidential

Policy – Tactics for success

1.  Mandate use of corporate agency 2.  Policy will be enforced at time of booking

via online booking tool and/or travel consultants

3.  Policy should apply to all employees, contractors and vendors that are being reimbursed by the company

4.  Implement per diems and city wide spend caps

5.  All non-preferred hotels will be considered out of policy

6.  Approvals required for bookings outside of corporate policy

33 | Egencia Confidential

Importance of Education

Buy-In Education Feedback Compliance

 Management buy-in and executive support is the key to success

 Engage key stakeholders and frequent travelers from the beginning

 Buy-in is an ongoing process

 New employees should be engaged from the beginning

 Important policy changes may require additional education

 Provide a centralized resource for ongoing information – Intranet, website

 Help employees understand that compliance is the key to meeting financial goals

 Make goals realistic to increase compliance

 Consistently reinforce the policy

 Put mechanisms in place to garner continuous feedback

 Leverage reporting and data for additional insight

 Ensure the feedback loop is complete

34 | Egencia Confidential

2010 Negotiating Tactics

1.  Understand market-specific dynamics 2.  Strict policy management and support of negotiated rates

is key 3.  Include amenities into the rate whenever possible 4.  Consolidate wherever possible to increase leverage 5.  Include both full and limited service hotels in the program 6.  Negotiate more favorable terms and conditions 7.  Consider independent hotels

35 | Egencia Confidential

When to consolidate

1.  Analyze total hotel spend in each market and on a regional basis   Consolidate one hotel for every 250 room nights or US $10,000 at a

particular property

2.  Be realistic about consolidation goals   It does not happen overnight… it takes 6 months to see progress

3.  Consider consolidating to one full-service hotel and one limited-service hotel for each market   Properties one tier down = proven savings

4.  Be prepared and have a back-up plan for city-wide sell-outs

Negotiations Strategies

Corey Hance Client Consulting Services Manager Egencia

37 | Egencia Confidential

When not to negotiate

1.  Room night caps per city

2.  Minimal resources to manage program 1. Average hotel RFP = 16 weeks from start to finish 2.  Individual property agreements require maintenance

3.  Travel policy does not have clear guidelines. 1. Will not be able to drive spend to preferred partners

4.  Program is in flux. 1. M&A; divestitures

2. Project-based travel (e.g. consulting firms)

3. Follow 80/20 rule

38 | Egencia Confidential

Lean on your Travel Management Company   The negotiating power of your TMC can deliver strong savings

  TMCs have resources to monitor rates and adjust for seasonality and other changes in demand

  Corporate discount agreements are often negotiated on annual basis. Rates are not dynamic

Market Discount from Published Rate

Downtown Chicago 26% Off Downtown Manhattan 16% Off Arc de Triomphe properties, Paris 35% Off Downtown Toronto 17% Off Heathrow Airport 14% Off

39 | Egencia Confidential

Importance of Monitoring

Combine multiple reports to get a holistic view of hotel spend   Corporate Card Data

  Agency Reporting

  Specific hotel reports
