Travel and events solutions specialist Reed & Mackay hasย added meeting booking capability to its platform,ย providing fast access to thousands of covid-19 safeย venuesย as companies return toย in-person meetings.
As companies move from office first to flexible working, they are navigating the challenges posed by a rapid return to in-person meetings against a backdrop of scaled back real estate. Reed & Mackay is meeting this challenge with a cohesive travel and meeting booking solution that brings greater ease of booking, cost control and enhanced duty of care to meeting management.
โOur clientsย askedย us toย centraliseย meeting and travel booking within one platform for a more cohesive experience.ย Offsite meeting space is inย demand; not only doย businessesย need to know that a venue isย Covid-19 safe,ย theyย also need to be able toย adaptย thatย meeting spaceย to a hybrid set up at short noticeย in line with changing restrictions,โย said Julie Oliver, Chief Operating Officer at Reed & Mackay.
The latest enhancement to Reed & Mackayโsย technology ecosystem,ย R&M/Meet, empowers users to book meetingย spaceย quickly and easily,ย securing industry leading ratesย whileย adhering to safety, cost control and sustainability objectives. All without compromising venue quality.
โR&M/Meetย enables Reed & Mackayโs clients to book travel and meeting space through one portal, with centralised payment and oneย view of where travel and meetings are taking place to support a companyโs duty of careโย continuedย Oliver.
