BTP Automation is an award-winning SaaS enterprise solution for automating the corporate hotel sourcing process. BTP analyzes real-time, actionable data to find inefficiencies and compliance issues for a company. Then fully automates the remedy through corrective actions. This occurs all day, every day, as opposed to the annual, months-long sourcing exercise, which is standard practice. BTP delivers continuous data-driven refinement of corporate hotel programs that consider actual travel patterns and changing market conditions, a first in the business travel industry.
