Travel Management Companies

Travel management companies today face a constantly evolving market that has put a question mark on their existing systems and practices. Business uncertainty has grown due to the economic slowdown and increased security threats around the world. In addition to that, access to digital technologies has changed the needs and expectations of customers. Travel management companies need to rise up to these challenges to retain their competitiveness and profitability.

Digital technologies such as big data, cloud and social media provide travelers new ways to research about a destination, make purchases online and voice their feedback. Travel management companies need to respond to these changes effectively by enhancing their presence across online and social media channels, and creating a personalized experience for customers across these channels.

Leading travel companies in the world adopt WNS’ Business Process Management (BPM) solutions to help them align their processes to the new market realities and harness digital technologies for business effectiveness. WNS combines deep domain experience in the travel industry with analytics capabilities, state-of-the-art technologies and process excellence to create solutions that drive agility. This enables our clients to manage market changes, increase operational efficiency, and improve customer satisfaction and decision-making.

Flexible and Innovative Commercial Models

WNS has provided industry leadership by bringing to the fore new, innovative commercial models that place the business interests of clients at the center of the engagement. We understand that a one-size-fits-all policy does not work as our clients’ business realities are different. Our flexible approach extends to different aspects of an engagement—scope, pricing, scale and the extent of risk-sharing.

Client-centric Engagement Model

At WNS, we understand that no two clients are alike and therefore, we do not follow a cookie-cutter approach to providing solutions. Our cultural engagement philosophy is to focus on ‘extending our clients’ enterprise’ by being a part of their extended operation. This approach ensures cultural and strategic alignment, and improved focus on our clients’ business outcomes.

Analytics and Big Data

Travel companies have a huge amount of data at their disposal which gives them ample opportunity to draw valuable insights on markets, customers and internal operations. WNS creates effective data-driven solutions for travel management companies by harnessing and analyzing data from structured and unstructured sources. This enables our clients to make fact-based decisions for better business results.
