HRG Launches Service for Marine, Offshore and Workforce Travel Sectors

Hogg Robinson Group has launched a new specialist service designed to help clients in the marine, offshore & energy and workforce travel sectors move their employees and contractors between geographic locations worldwide.

HRG Logistics provides clients with control over complex travel arrangements and the ability to drive further value from budgets through cutting-edge technology, global support and advice from expert consultants.

The HRG service provides a complete package to control and manage travel programmes through a suite of fully integrated proprietary technologies including:

- The HRG Global Fares Database, which identifies the most efficient ticketing option and provides a straightforward fare sourcing and booking process. The tool offers travel managers access to the global range of the best available marine and offshore fares.

- HRG Crew Booker, which simplifies complex crew rotations and allows travel managers to request, confirm and store itineraries in one place, as well as easily make changes at any time.

- The HRG traveller tracking tool which enables travel managers to locate travellers quickly and easily during a crisis, as well as create customised reports to better understand travel activity and spend.

The service is supported by HRG's extensive global presence with an international system of dedicated 'Centres of Expertise' in various cities including Houston, Bergen, Dubai, Singapore and Perth, staffed by highly-trained logistics and corporate travel management teams.

In addition to the centralised HRG Global Fares Database, each Centre of Expertise and supporting service team can provide help with passports and visas, charter flights, baggage limits, meet and greet services and accommodation.

"HRG Logistics enables us to bring our technology and international network of experts together as one package to deliver a unique and effective approach to highly complex logistics management," said Tony Berry, HRG's Director of Industry and Fare Distribution. "The majority of our dedicated consultants have 10-20 years of experience, giving us an unrivalled understanding of the requirements and intricacies involved in developing and managing bespoke travel solutions for the marine, offshore and energy and workforce industries."

HRG Logistics offers 24/7 support and crisis management assistance through its global network of service centres, even in remote and inhospitable locations.
