Case Study: Textron reduces last-minute travel costs with BCD Travel’s Travel Report Card

Textron cuts last-minute travel bookings by 5% with BCD Travel

Textron, an aerospace and defense company, faced a challenge with increased travel expenses that exceeded its budget due to a high volume of last-minute bookings. These costs were particularly concerning for travel programs operating under strict government contracts. To address this, Textron partnered with BCD Travel to develop a new strategy for reducing these costs.

BCD Travel implemented a customized Travel Report Card from its DecisionSource® reporting platform to analyze booking data. This solution provided Textron with actionable insights, which led to a 5% increase in advance bookings made 21 days or more before departure in just one quarter. The measurable impact was a significant reduction in travel costs for the client.
