Business Travel Suite (BTS) is a new-gen connectivity solution aiming at facilitating rates, availability, and booking data transmission between Travel Management Company (TMC) systems and hotel CRS, PMS, addressing the specified aspects: 

What benefits BTS brings to TMCs?

1. Reduction of Manual Costs and Errors:

   • Streamlined Workflow: Automate the reservation process, reducing the need for manual intervention. TMCs can save time and resources by eliminating manual data entry and processing.
   • Error Minimization: With automated data transmission, the chances of human errors, such as incorrect rate input or booking discrepancies, are significantly reduced. This leads to smoother operations and enhanced customer satisfaction.
   • Cost Efficiency: By reducing the need for manual handling and rectification of errors, TMCs can allocate their resources more efficiently, resulting in cost savings and improved profitability.

2. Accurate Rates and Availability via API:

   • Real-time Information: Retrieve rates and availability directly from the hotel systems in real time through APIs. This ensures that TMCs have access to the most up-to-date information, leading to accurate and reliable booking data.

   • Timely Updates: Instant rate updates from the hotel systems means TMCs can offer clients the latest rates, discounts, and promotions, resulting in improved competitiveness in the market.

   • Rate Parity: Maintain rate parity across distribution channels, as the rates obtained via API directly reflect the hotel's pricing strategy, eliminating rate discrepancies and customer confusion.

3. Enhanced Data Transmission and Performance:

   • Seamless Integration: Our product offers a seamless integration with TMC systems and hotel CRS/PMS. This results in smooth data transmission without interruptions or delays, ensuring uninterrupted booking processes.
   • Improved Stability: Experience stable and consistent performance with our reliable API connections. Eliminate downtime and system crashes, allowing TMCs to operate with confidence even during peak booking periods.
   • Minimal Latency: Enjoy minimal data transmission latency, enabling quick response times for rate and availability inquiries. This leads to improved customer satisfaction and higher conversion rates.

4. Consistent Hotel Static Content and Data Mapping:

   • Unified Data Structure: Ensure that hotel static content and data mapping remain consistent across all TMC systems connected to the product. This consistency enhances user experience by presenting uniform and accurate information.
   • Reduced Integration Efforts: TMCs don't need to develop custom data mapping solutions for each hotel CRS/PMS. Our product provides standardized data mapping, reducing integration complexities and accelerating time-to-market.
   • Reduced Maintenance Burden: The product's consistent data structure minimizes the need for constant updates and adjustments, reducing the maintenance efforts for TMCs and ensuring data accuracy.

What benefits BTS brings to hotel chains/ properties?

1. Reduction of Manual Costs and Errors:

   • Operational Efficiency: Automate the reservation process between hotel chains and TMCs, reducing the need for manual intervention and streamlining operations.

   • Error Mitigation: Minimize human errors associated with manual data entry, resulting in smoother bookings and fewer discrepancies.

   • Resource Optimization: Hotel chains can allocate staff resources to more strategic tasks instead of managing manual reservations, leading to improved productivity.

2. Accurate Rates and Availability via API:

   • Real-time Updates: Provide accurate, real-time rates and availability information to TMCs through APIs, ensuring consistent and reliable data exchange.

   • Competitive Edge: Hotel chains can offer up-to-date rates and availability, attracting TMCs and travelers with the latest offerings.

   • Rate Parity: Maintain rate parity across all distribution channels, preventing inconsistencies and safeguarding customer trust.

3. Consistent Hotel Static Content and Data Mapping:

   • Unified Presentation: Present consistent hotel static content and data mapping to TMCs, creating a unified and reliable user experience.

   • Simplified Integrations: Hotel chains benefit from standardized data mapping, reducing the complexity of integrating with various TMC systems.

   • Reduced Maintenance Efforts: Maintain data accuracy without the need for constant updates, resulting in minimized maintenance efforts and enhanced data integrity.

4. Leveraging Smart Cache for Reduced Server Consumption:

   • Distribution Cost Savings: Hotel chains can significantly lower distribution costs by utilizing the smart cache feature, reducing the strain on server resources.

   • Efficient Resource Allocation: The smart cache optimizes data retrieval, ensuring that only necessary data is transmitted, freeing up server capacity for other critical operations.

5. Protecting Corporate Negotiated Rates with Rate Access Code:

   • Rate Security: Hotel chains can safeguard corporate negotiated rates from unauthorized access by using rate access codes. This protects special rates and maintains confidentiality.

   • Compliance Assurance: Ensure compliance with corporate agreements and prevent rate leakage, fostering trust with corporate clients and partners.

   • Enhanced Control: Hotel chains can exercise greater control over the distribution of negotiated rates, preventing misuse and maintaining rate integrity.
