This fragmentation makes leveraging a travel program data aggregation and auditing solution mission-critical. What Are TMCs (Travel Management Companies)? TMCs, [travel management companies](https://www.amexglobalbusinesstravel.com/), are companies that help manage various businesses with their travel programs and eliminate potential hassles with bookings and overspending on lodging and airfare for employees. #### There can be key scenarios that may result in an organization having multiple TMCs. They include: - **Mergers and acquisitions** - These lead to overlap within the supply chain which quickly results in multiple TMCs, numerous policies, and duplicate contracts.  - **Business expansions and growth** - Especially when expanding into multiple countries, offices are likely to engage with in-country agencies and travel suppliers to manage a best-in-country program with rich content that supports their local travel needs.  - **Fragmented teams** -  This is common amongst companies who have multiple entities and or locations, leading to fragmented teams and little-to-no structure in place when it comes to managing contracts and suppliers. With the rise in remote work in 2020 and 2021, more and more companies likely have fragmented teams. As a [travel manager](https://blog.traxo.com/travel-management-technology), it’s up to you to sift through redundancies and determine how to manage multiple TMCs. Identifying ways to streamline your corporate travel program is a crucial part of protecting your organization’s travel and your sanity! After all, fragmented data from multiple TMCs can be just as challenging as fragmented data from multiple airlines, hotels, or car rental companies.  Consolidating and analyzing data on a monthly or quarterly (or even more frequent) basis is a time-consuming endeavor, regardless of your level of expertise with Excel. This can be especially difficult when merging data from multiple TMCs and supplier sites.  ### Downfalls to manually managing data from multiple TMCs: - Program compliance is fragmented. - Comprehensive duty of care coverage is sacrificed. - Financial reporting is inaccurate and savings opportunities are missed. - Travel managers’ time and efforts are misused. - It’s impossible to identify user behavior patterns. - Training your travelers to book compliant travel can be more challenging. On top of these problems, you also have to deal with inconsistent data. Every TMC handles data reporting a bit differently, which makes it hard to normalize and combine data manually. To make matters even worse, you still have to standardize and combine your “for biz” supplier data with your TMC data to get close to complete visibility. Still, manual data gathering is never comprehensive or completely accurate, leaving you with risky travel program blindspots.  ### Common travel management company data quality issues: - Varying formats - Missing data for specific fields - Mismatched currencies and incorrect conversions - Data provided at different intervals - Language barriers & spelling discrepancies While these issues may be the reality that travel managers face today, there is an easier path forward. Let’s explore the benefits of automated, pre-trip data aggregation. ### Imagine a single record of complete corporate travel booking data automatically consolidated for when you need to: - Dive into your monthly budgets - Run a cost analyses - Identify trends in traveler behavior - Prepare an upcoming supplier RFP - Locate travelers quickly in a crisis The benefits of data consolidation are boundless. Corporate travel managers can finally [continuously audit](https://www.traxo.com/solutions/travel-program-compliance) their corporate travel program and address non-compliant bookings before travel occurs, regardless of how many TMCs, OBTs, or suppliers travelers use. Regain time in your busy day and refocus your efforts on the vital aspects of your program including comprehensive [duty of care](https://blog.traxo.com/how-to-support-duty-of-care-with-travel-leakage-data), [price assurance](https://www.businesstravelnews.com/Management/Traxo-Partners-to-Bring-Corp-Rate-Assurance-to-Off-Channel-Hotel-Bookings) and [securing competitive rates](https://blog.traxo.com/travel-data-visibility-empowering-supplier-negotiations).
