You wrote the policy. You briefed the policy. You even made the PDF look pretty. But here’s the question, is anyone actually following it?
What is Policy Compliance?
It’s the measure of how closely bookings and travel behaviour align with the agreed corporate travel policy. It covers everything from supplier choice and advance booking windows to fare class and cabin type.
Why it matters
- Low compliance drives higher costs and missed savings
- It undermines supplier agreements and volume commitments
- Creates inconsistent traveller experiences
- Weakens procurement’s influence inside the business
Who benefits when it’s fixed
- Buyers: Accurate, reliable data for decision-making
- Suppliers: Confidence in projected volumes and better pricing models
- TMCs: Fewer exception processes and booking errors
- Travellers: A smoother experience with clearer guidance
The Consortium POV
Policy compliance is more than a KPI ,it’s a reflection of whether your program works in the real world. We focus on building alignment between traveller needs, supplier capabilities, and policy design so compliance becomes the natural choice, not the forced one.
Takeaway
A policy no one follows is just a document. Let’s turn it into a framework that people respect and results you can prove.
