CWT Program Manager Center wins Innovation Award at Business Travel Show

Carlson Wagonlit's Program Management Center, a web-based central gateway providing travel managers and buyers with easy access to the information and performance metrics they need to optimize their travel program, recently won a 2008 Innovation Award at the Business Travel Show held in London. The distinction was made in the Travel Services Category.

Developed exclusively by CWT, the CWT Program Manager Center has enabled more than 10,000 travel management professionals in nearly 100 countries to simplify and prioritize their activities and more effectively manage their travel program since its launch in April 2007.

Customizable dashboards, zoom-in and zoom-out capabilities by geography and by organizational hierarchy, carbon emissions reporting, traveler health and safety alerts, and an interactive map for locating travelers in the event of an emergency are among the key functionalities of this multi-lingual, multi-currency program management tool.

Commenting on the award, Loren Brown, CWT executive vice president, Technology and Product Management, said, "We are particularly honored to receive this award, since the voting was done by travel management professionals. When you see the CWT Program Management Center, you can't help but be impressed by the depth and flexibility of its content and its functionality."
