<strong>HRG</strong> unveils <strong>the</strong> future of business travel data management<br />
- innovative reporting and mapping tool <strong>HRG</strong> Insight<br />
7 February 2012<br />
Hogg Robinson Group (<strong>HRG</strong>), <strong>the</strong> award-winning international corporate services company, unveiled<br />
<strong>HRG</strong> Insight, its new interactive mapping and reporting tool, at <strong>the</strong> Business Travel and Meeting Show<br />
in London. The tool provides vital travel data such as spend, personnel and high-risk areas, on an<br />
interactive map.<br />
Designed, managed and implemented in-house by <strong>HRG</strong>’s dedicated team of experts, <strong>HRG</strong> Insight will allow<br />
users to drill into <strong>the</strong>ir data graphically, so <strong>the</strong>y can quickly and easily see exactly w<strong>here</strong> <strong>the</strong>ir travellers are,<br />
w<strong>here</strong> <strong>the</strong>y are going to and w<strong>here</strong> <strong>the</strong>y have been. Delivered as an online service, optimised for use on tablet<br />
and mobile devices, clients can access <strong>the</strong>ir global data anytime, giving <strong>the</strong>m <strong>the</strong> freedom to manage, organise<br />
and make informed decisions about <strong>the</strong>ir travel management programme<br />
The highly visual interface deployed in <strong>HRG</strong> Insight is underpinned by a sophisticated database, which allows<br />
users to capture pre and post travel data in one place for <strong>the</strong> first time. This new functionality enables travel<br />
managers to budget more efficiently by giving a single view of all forecast and committed travel spend. <strong>HRG</strong><br />
Insight’s online report library allows each user to set up a range of bespoke reports, such as specific spend in a<br />
certain area or on a range of routes, and can choose <strong>the</strong> date and frequency to suit <strong>the</strong>m; <strong>the</strong>y can also opt to<br />
deliver a report to a group of users within <strong>the</strong>ir organisation.<br />
<strong>HRG</strong> Insight’s highly intuitive map analysis presents travel data in a similar way to an airline route map,<br />
allowing users to clearly and quickly see w<strong>here</strong> <strong>the</strong>ir most popular routes and destinations are. Users can also<br />
access at-a-glance information on hotel data, according to location, whilst fur<strong>the</strong>r customised functionality<br />
makes it easy to drill down to <strong>the</strong> most granular level according to <strong>the</strong> precise information required. From a<br />
security perspective mapping analysis also allows users to see <strong>the</strong> locations of individual travellers and quickly<br />
identify incidents or emerging situations that may place <strong>the</strong>m at risk.<br />
Nigel Meyer, <strong>HRG</strong>’s Group Technology and Data Services Director, said; “<strong>HRG</strong> Insight is a flexible and<br />
adaptable platform that gives us a sound foundation on which we can continue to innovate and adapt to our<br />
clients’ changing needs.<br />
“Data is now being used by decision makers outside <strong>the</strong> sp<strong>here</strong> of travel management, including finance,<br />
procurement and team leaders. <strong>HRG</strong> Insight has been designed to deliver data in a way that accessible and<br />
easy to use for all disciplines to ensure spend is wisely managed and personnel are always protected. With<br />
growing needs for security, compliance and cost control we now have <strong>the</strong> data and <strong>the</strong> platform to meet <strong>the</strong>se<br />
demands head on.”<br />
