Lanyon, Inc. (www.lanyon.com), the leading, independent provider of content management and distribution technology to the global hotel and travel industries, announced today the launch and expansion of its corporate travel management software solution known as RFP Control Center.
Already used by several major consortia, the expanded corporate RFP Control Center solution will include a wealth of additional functionality required by corporate travel managers to support their RFP bid processing. Key features include: Rating bids against key criteria to reveal conformity to corporate guidelines; the ability for the corporate travel manager to control hotel and chain contact lists; email and notifications with these contacts; customized file export capabilities; robust reporting; renegotiation process control including bulk rate updates and pseudo city code validations.
In creating and expanding this industry-leading solution, Lanyon interviewed travel management leaders across the Fortune Global 500. 'Our goal was to address the most critical functionality needed by travel managers as they drive value through their RFP bid process,' stated Chris Wichers, COO for Lanyon. 'The Lanyon solution enables travel management companies and consortia, and now multi-national corporations, to better manage and administer their programs centrally and on-line while leveraging Lanyon's global database of over 35,000 hotels.'
