Case Study: Travel and Transport achieves real-time travel spend visibility and improved policy compliance with Information Builders

Travel and Transport Launches SaaSBased Travel Management Solution

Travel and Transport, one of the world’s largest travel management companies, faced a common industry problem: corporate travel teams lacked a single source of truth for both major bookings and incidental expenses, leaving them without timely visibility into employee travel spend and policy compliance. Its data subsidiary, Data Visualization Intelligence (DVI), set out to solve that gap.

DVI built Vantage Point, a SaaS big‑data analytics platform that combines booking, expense, credit‑card and financial data and uses Information Builders’ integration, data‑quality and WebFOCUS visualization tools to deliver reusable InfoApps, maps, mobile dashboards and proactive alerts. The result: real‑time oversight, improved policy compliance, stronger supplier negotiations and more efficient purchasing—driving estimated travel cost reductions of roughly 3–7% within the first years of use.
