2016 U.S.-Booked Air Volume: $54 million
Principal Online Booking Tool: Concur
Principal Expense Supplier: SAP
Consolidated U.S. TMC: Carlson Wagonlit Travel
Viacom's U.S.-booked air volume rose 11 percent in 2016,
according to a BTN estimate. This increase coincides with the media and
entertainment company's continued efforts to expand its footprint in
international markets. At the same time, the company has worked to globalize
its managed travel program. Viacom has consolidated its U.S. business with
Carlson Wagonlit Travel; it put a global travel management company RFP out to
bid in 2015. BTN has not uncovered the outcome of that tender. The company
rolled Concur Travel out to U.S. employees in 2015. Viacom continues to use SAP
for expense reporting both in the U.S. and international markets.
