GUARDIAGRELE, Italy, September 23, 2010 /PRNewswire/ — Sure costs, fast service, leaner procedures: these are the three main advantages guaranteed by the TARGET BUY(TM) model for managing your business travel.
Designed and developed by the Abruzzo-based company SENECA (http://www.senecaspa.com), TARGET BUY(TM) is an innovative system which simplifies the organisation and pricing systems of business travel, targeting both direct and indirect costs.
TARGET BUY(TM) allows customers to precisely set the required cost target for each type of service in absolute values, whether ticketing, hotels or other BT services. The target price is defined in collaboration with the Seneca experts, using accurate methods including predictive statistical models based on the observation of costs and direct and indirect, both internal and external, customer variables.
Having defined the tariff – the “target buy” – the company has the certainty of its costs, and will be debited the set target buy for each type of services, throughout the year, with no surprises. Thanks to this innovative system, therefore, companies can manage their business travel in a leaner manner, immediately assessing budgets and reducing control times and authorisation processes.
In contrast to TARGET BUY(TM), traditional models involve the purchase of the services generally after the customer has checked the prices and other conditions, such as timetables, carriers, hotel categories and so on.
With TARGET BUY(TM), the company has a constant control and prior knowledge of the costs of every trip, and the services can be directly requested without the need for prior evaluations of the various available solutions.
Administrative control is made easier, and the authorisation and quotation checking procedures are much leaner.
