Travel Project seeks efficiencies and improved user experience
by Michelle Saport |
The Travel Project is a comprehensive re-examination of UA's travel program with the goal of streamlining our processes, by making them more user-friendly and creating a process that will allow access to airfare, lodging, and transportation discounts to save UA money, and improve travel reporting capability.
Three cross-university work teams were formed by leadership from each main campus: Implementation Group, Focus Group and Oversight Group.
The Implementation Group has been learning configuration capabilities for UA's new Concur travel system and vetting recommendations on how to configure Concur for UA to the Focus and Oversight groups. An in-depth review, restructure and rewrite of UA travel regulations are in progress to address issues and streamline the travel process. Collaborative meetings are being held with the travel project groups to review draft regulation and process change recommendations.
