Hogg Robinson has launched Fraedom, an
integrated technology and Software as a Service (SaaS) business.
Operating independently within Hogg Robinson Group, Fraedom is
focused on offering its clients simple and inexpensive software
based solutions.
“SaaS technology offered by Fraedom
already operates across a wide variety of non travel markets,
helping companies and individuals gain instant control and
visibility of their purchasing and expenses,” said David
Radcliffe, Chief Executive of Hogg Robinson Group. “Having learned from our
experience in non travel areas, we recognise there is a gap in the
broader corporate and unmanaged travel market for a simple to use
integrated end-to-end solutions process. One of the first new
innovations from Fraedom, is a simple, easy to use and inexpensive
service which offers a one stop process from initial online
booking, through to the reclaiming and payment of expenses. So it
made sense to launch Fraedom at the UK business travel show.”
“Fraedom will be aimed primarily
at the non managed and individual sector within the overall travel
market, whilst HRG global travel management will continue to focus
on the managed sector within the corporate travel space. Both
companies operate completely independently of each other, although
of course our clients will have the benefit of choosing which
division best suits their needs,” added Radcliffe.
HRG,
Hogg Robinson
