Redesign your travel programme to reduce risk and add value

Redesign your travel programme to reduce risk and add value

The Covid-19 crisis has impacted all businesses from micro start-ups to multi-national giants, disrupting supply chains and preventing the smooth movement of both products and people. 

Business travel largely froze during the height of the crisis and throughout various lockdowns. Prior to the pandemic, however, the number of trips was on the rise, with companies acknowledging its vital role in helping to develop their businesses, close important deals, form relationships or tackle issues in person. 

The Covid crisis has been a humbling experience for all, but through its disruption there is the opportunity to make improvements. Businesses need to ensure their future travel programmes protect staff, reduce risk and focus on value. In this CIPS Download paper, produced in partnership with Egencia, we explain the steps that can be taken to attain that ambition.
