FCM boosts platform capabilities through launch of online booking tool in UK

Global travel management company FCM is reshaping the corporate travel business through a slew of proprietary client solutions debuting in the UK over the coming months.

Alongside the global rollout of its highly anticipated omnichannel technology, FCM platform including access via the new mobile App, the company has revealed it is launching FCM Booking, an innovative alternative to traditional OBTs. This latest development represents another exciting milestone in FCM’s evolving technology journey and firmly positions it as a leader in the tech travel space.

According to FCM Global Managing Director, Marcus Eklund, the company’s technology expertise is borne through an ambitious strategy focusing on user experience and flexibility, while taking full advantage of the significant investments it has made in recent years.

“By prioritising the delivery of user centric tech, we are able to provide a standout service to our clients that addresses their pain points, provides exceptional flexibility and personalisation while providing an incomparable online experience through innovative tools like FCM Platform,” said Eklund.

With FCM Platform’s open-platform solution, clients can choose from recommended APIs to deliver desired feature and functionality requirements on a market-by-market basis – like HR feeds, duty of care providers and booking tool selection – this will soon include FCM’s own proprietary option.

As the newest component of the wider platform offering, FCM Booking has been developed to hit the sweet spot for companies who value user experience balanced with control of key elements around their travel policy. Piloting of FCM Booking is underway in the UK with plans to start onboarding new customers later this year.
