How a growing Australian business simplified corporate travel with ’ello

The brief:

The firm supports prThe client wanted a simpler, more modern way to manage corporate travel across its growing business.

Its existing process relied heavily on emails, manual approvals and travellers booking through different channels. This made it difficult to maintain consistency, manage travel policy and provide clear visibility over upcoming travel and expenditure.

The brief to ’ello was to provide a single platform that could bring travel booking, policy, approvals, reporting and traveller support together.

The solution needed to be easy to implement, simple for employees to use and flexible enough to scale as the organisation’s travel requirements grew. The client also wanted access to experienced Australian-based travel consultants whenever additional support was required.

What we did:

’ello worked with the client to understand how travel was requested, approved, booked and supported.

The platform was configured around the client’s travel policy, approval requirements, preferred suppliers and traveller needs.

1

Simplified the travel journey

The team identified the steps creating the most delay, including incomplete requests, approval follow-up and policy questions.

2

Created one starting point

’ello became the consistent place for travellers and arrangers to search, request and book travel.

3

Connected booking & support

Policy, approvals, booking information and consultant assistance were brought together within the same travel experience.

The Outcome

The client now has a more consistent, connected and scalable way to manage corporate travel across the business.

Travellers have a simpler booking experience, arrangers spend less time chasing information and managers have greater visibility over approvals, policy compliance and travel activity. Routine trips can move quickly through the platform, while more complex requirements can still be supported by experienced Australian-based consultants.

By bringing booking, policy, approvals, reporting and support together, ’ello has reduced unnecessary administration and created a clearer process for everyone involved.
