TRAVEL agencies and TMCs can now access a new set of services and technologies that will raise business competitiveness, improve access to relevant hotel content and save time for travel consultants.
The Amadeus Hotel Optimisation Package portfolio of solutions has two main draws: profit optimisation and content optimisation.
One of its prominent solutions is the multi-GDS Business Intelligence solution Amadeus Hotel Dynamic Saver, which helps travel agencies and corporate travel managers maintain high savings standards and ensure hotel contract compliance. Key capabilities of the Amadeus Hotel Dynamic Saver include Last Room Availability, identification of rate squatters and automatic future comparison of negotiated and public rates to ensure the best deals for buyers.
According to Amadeus, this tool has “consistently identified average achievable savings of 10 per cent on total hotel spend for travel agencies and corporations”, which translates into annual savings of up to US$1.6 million on hotel spend for a typical Fortune 500 company.
The package is also able to integrate content from specific hotels and hotel aggregators at the point of sale.
As well, the package includes the Amadeus LinkHotel customised service, which enables seamless integration of specific hotels that are requested but not bookable on the GDS, and a tool to drive contract compliance.
