Excellence in Technology or Analytics - Corporate
Transparent, efficient and user-friendly, ReloQuest®’s advanced technology brings cutting-edge price comparison for serviced accommodation and hotels into the relocation and global mobility realm.
Online travel agents (OTAs) have changed the way consumers source, book and get the best price for their flights and accommodation – and how suppliers stay competitive. The global mobility and travel community can now benefit from the same level of service, real-time information and cost transparency with the game-changing technology of this award-winning entry.ReloQuest® is an independent cloud-based sourcing platform for the temporary housing, serviced apartment and hotel sector. It is changing how we source serviced accommodation and hotels with its innovative use of cutting-edge API (application programming interface) algorithms, which brings together one of the largest global supply chains in the business and is supported by exceptional, client-focused round-the-clock service. Explaining why ReloQuest® brought the award home in this very competitive category, the judges said, “The site is very user friendly and easy to navigate. It leverages an advanced technology for clients and individuals alike to provide cutting-edge comparison functionality and allows for a superior customer experience.”
People-centred technology
ReloQuest®’s technology brings together multiple serviced apartment providers’ platforms in a way that enables corporate global mobility teams, relocation management companies, travel managers and global people to compare their options in real-time from a huge range of suppliers, and without bias. For Global Mobility teams, ReloQuest®’s technology offers peace of mind on cost, duty of care, compliance and quality and saves valuable time and resources in the tendering and booking process for a wide range of moves, including group. The universal platform is also designed for individual assignees too. Global people can plan, compare, book and now manage their own accommodation, all from approved suppliers. This gives today’s business traveller and assignee the highly sought-after choice and flexibility offered by a standard OTA.Improving price transparency for shared benefits
While both of these clearly impressed the judges, the clincher was how ReloQuest®’s human-centric technology is improving price transparency across the sector to inform the market and offer the best options for corporate clients. The algorithm’s Win/Loss logic feeds back to serviced accommodation suppliers how they compare to their competitors. It delivers invaluable insight on how they can remain customer-focused, and presents the information in a clear and accessible way. ReloQuest®’s technology is also raising standards in global mobility with its predictive functionality and ability to provide limitless data.Both forward-looking and reflective, ReloQuest® provides an overall view of aspects of the business, like budget variance, trends, consumer behaviour, average rates and reservations booked, helping its clients to define their strategic direction and yield management.Impressive client testimonies and continual improvement
As with all award-winning and successful technological innovations, ReloQuest® has people at the heart of the business. Renowned US entrepreneur Zig Ziglar’s motto, included in the entry submission, sums up the company’s approach and its success to date: “You can get everything you want in life if you will just help other people get what they want.” The very impressive range and scope of ReloQuest®’s client testimonies and its continual service enhancements suggest that ReloQuest® is indeed giving people what they want.
