It’s fair to say,
We do things a little
Differently
Adding Value,
Without Compromise
We are driven by our clients’ need to see long term-value supported by people and technology that deliver benefits to every area of their business. Just as much for those doing the travelling, as for those planning the travel and controlling the costs.
Tomorrow’s technology,
Today...
The Business First Partnership 360 technology suite is designed, built and tested in-house by our travel technology developers, entirely with our clients in mind.
At the heart of our technology are the tools to save you time and money (our fare bench-marking technology never stops – tracking savings right up to the point of ticketing), whilst being easily tailored to our clients’ own in-house travel systems. What’s more, our smart technology synchs with traveller profiles, preferences, and business objectives. Each of our 360 Technology products have been designed to support both operational and practical business travel requirements, however complex.
If efficiency of time, travel safety and value for money are your corporate travel priorities, our unique technology will address them. We take the time to understand what technology services will best suit your corporate travel requirements, and always provide training so that you get the most out of each product.
