    Traxo Integrates Data Flow with Everbridge

    Traxo has launched a product integration with safety and risk management provider Everbridge, feeding off-channel booking data into the Everbridge platform. With the integration, data from Traxo—which can detect and normalize data from booking confirmations from more than 1,000 points of sale—automatically streams into Everbridge, so users can see which travelers are affected when emergency events arise.

    How Travel Managers Can Adapt to Global Growth

    A SAP Concur blog post says travel managers are shifting from 'command and control' to 'enlightenment and empowerment' in response to changing employee expectations, emerging technologies and rising global mobility. It recommends five priorities: data and analytics, evaluating new technology, traveler safety, employee satisfaction, and driving value.
