Advito, BCD Travel’s consulting arm, has integrated its Total Trip Insights travel program consolidation app and Gate4 Insights carbon emissions management app into Concur Travel and Expense, the company announced.
With the integration, both applications now are available in the SAP Concur App Center and connect to Concur via an API that enables data to flow from Concur into Advito’s analytics suite. That means “our clients can now effortlessly obtain valuable insights into their travel program’s global emissions, overall costs, supplier performance, leakage, trip purpose and more,” Advito global practices and sales principal Olivier Benoit said in a statement.
The Total Trip Insights tool can bring in Concur Expense data alongside agency data and data from other third-party sources to show a comprehensive analysis of a travel program, according to Advito.
The Gate4 Insights tool, which Advito launched last year, is based on an ISO-certified calculator for carbon emissions that takes in such factors as aircraft type and radiative forcing when determining emissions, with the certification meaning companies can use the data in annual financial and sustainability reports, Advito said. Earlier this year, Advito announced a partnership with Tripkicks to provide messaging to travelers booking in Concur regarding sustainable flight options based on the Gate4 methodology.
