  • KPI #1: Spend Under Management — Why Rogue Bookings Are Tanking Your Performance Score

Your data looks perfect… until you realise half of it is missing.

If you can’t see all your travel spend, you’re flying blind and rogue bookings are the storm clouds on the horizon.

But what if that approach is quietly costing your organisation far more than you save?

Why it matters

Low spend under management isn’t just a number problem ,it’s a control problem.

It leads to:

  • Fragmented reporting that makes you chase shadows
  • Inaccurate savings data that kills credibility with Finance
  • Missed volume discounts you’ve already “negotiated”
  • Supplier relationships that weaken over time
  • Zero visibility for ESG or safety compliance (hope you like risk)

 

Who benefits when it’s fixed

  • Travel Buyers: Real negotiating power + clean analytics
  • TMCs: Better service delivery + fewer operational fires
  • Hotel Suppliers: Targeted offers with confidence in uptake
  • Travellers: One-stop booking, proper support, and loyalty perks

 

The Consortium POV

 
No one wakes up wanting to go rogue, they do it because the system doesn’t give them what they need.
We help procurement, TMCs, and suppliers build an ecosystem where what’s managed is also measured, and where your KPI isn’t just a vanity metric, it’s a performance engine.
 
 
Takeaway
 

If you’re not tracking this KPI, start.

If you’re tracking it and it’s under 70%, call us.

Because in a travel supply chain, what’s unmanaged goes unmeasured, and what’s unmeasured leaves money and value on the table.
