FCm UAE Strengthens Capabilities in Region

FCm Travel Solutions UAE has launched a new suite of client products and services in the Middle East.

FCm UAE has aggressively strengthened its capabilities in the region this year, introducing an online booking tool, new client reporting capabilities and corporate card solutions as part of a wide range of initiatives to further streamline travel for customers.

General manager FCm Middle East Andrew Boxall said FCm’s suite of business travel tools would cater for the small to medium and mid to large client market in the UAE and provide customers with enhanced travel data for tighter control of their travel spend.

“In this increasingly cost-conscious environment, companies are seeking greater visibility of their travel spend for analysis and financial management, which we can provide through our multi-national client reporting solution called Clientbank,” Andrew said. “Clientbank reduces the time, complexity and cost involved in managing corporate travel across the world. In addition our strong local reporting suites will deliver comprehensive travel data at a regional level.

“Our corporate customers are also more focused on leveraging the global purchasing power of FCm’s worldwide network as a way of sourcing more competitive deals on their air travel and accommodation. Part of our strategy for the Middle East has been to deliver special travel offers, which have been very well received.”

FCm UAE’s new range of products and services includ:

• FCm Advantage (in-house travel club for FCm clients)
• Clientbank (FCm’s multi-national client reporting solution)
• Strong local reporting suites
• Online booking tools
• Full visa assistance for clients
• Payment solutions through corporate cards
• Special travel offers for both the leisure and corporate markets
• The introduction of business consolidation plans for regional clients

The launch to market of FCm UAE’s new products and services coincides with a record performance for the company’s operation in Dubai during the past year.

FCm Dubai grew the business by an estimated 80% over six months setting new records for growth on a monthly basis in the first half of 2010.
