In traditional corporate travel processes, the employee forwards the travel request to an assistant or agency, they find options and present them to the employee, if the employee doesn't like it, the process starts over. This "ping-pong" traffic is both a waste of time and a source of stress. The new generation of employees (Gen Y and Z) want to plan their business trips just as they plan their own vacations. Kurumsal.pro's Self-Booking (SBT) module gives the employee this freedom while protecting the company's budget and policy limits.
Why Self-Booking?
Self-Booking is the ability of an employee to make their own flight, hotel, and car reservations within the framework of rules determined by the company without needing an intermediary. This method is a rapidly spreading trend in the world and provides three main benefits to companies: Speed, Satisfaction, and Savings.
Controlled Freedom
The system doesn't tell the employee "buy whatever you want". It says "buy whatever you want from those that comply with company policies". The powerful rule engine running in the background filters options that exceed limits or contain prohibited suppliers or drops them for approval.
Advantages of Self-Booking
Time Savings
Since there is no intermediary, the process is completed in seconds. The employee sees availability instantly and makes a decision. The trouble of waiting for emails ends.
Employee Satisfaction
An employee who can choose their own seat, meal, or hotel room is more satisfied with the travel process. They feel valued.
Cost Advantage
Studies show that employees who plan their own travel use the company budget more carefully and tend towards more economical options ("Visual Guilt" effect).
Error Prevention
The employee knows their own name and date of birth best. Thanks to the profile-based system, data entry errors drop to zero.
Frequently Asked Questions
Should employees receive training?
Our system is as simple and user-friendly as popular travel sites (B2C). Usually a 15-minute demo or a short guide is sufficient.
How do we prevent them from buying expensive tickets?
You can define rules such as "Ceiling Price" or "Lowest Price + %X" in the system. Options outside the limit are either not shown at all or fall automatically to manager approval when selected.
Is there mobile app support?
Yes. Thanks to Kurumsal.pro's mobile application, employees can make reservations, request changes, and give approvals even when they are on the road.
