Biz Travel Online Success Webcast Series – ALCATEL
#1: Alcatel
April 25, 2006
5PM CET / 11AM EST
With sales of EURO 13.1 billion and 58,000 employees in 2005, Alcatel, global leader in communications solutions and telecommunications, has operations in more than 130 countries.
“Integrating Travel Procurement requires a good deal of internal preparation, a bit of courage and great partners relations.”
That’s what Alcatel Corporate Travel Officer Cyriaque Benoist says after successfully implementing a self booking tool over several sites for several thousand travellers.
Six months down the road Cyriaque is surprised at the speed at which employees have adopted the tools. The partnership between Alcatel, its TMC and KDS helped them exceed their expectations in terms of touchless rate.
This KDS webinar is a unique opportunity to hear the Alcatel online travel story first hand from the man who made it happen, and get his views on what makes a successful online travel project.
Cyriaque will take us through his process and methodology for the successful deployment of their SBT. We aim to make this an interactive session that focuses on best practice for online travel. Once you have registered for the event please take a few minutes to complete our pre-event briefing form to let us know what topics you would like Cyriaque to address and any questions you would like to put to him.
