OBTs, as the name implies, are web-based tools that offer the opportunity to book various aspects of travel that are in compliance with a company\u2019s travel policy. Users can reserve hotels, rental cars, flights and more through this tool that is compatible with desktop, tablet and smartphone platforms.<\/p><p>There are many advantages to utilize OBTs from a traveler perspective, including a lower transaction cost than arranging travel through a live agent. The ease of use also allows the traveler 24\/7 access, self-management such as making travel updates, tracking of travel and integration with various expense platforms a company may use. In addition, OBTs often include information regarding your trip such as any health-related information, attractions, dining, entertainment at or near your destination.<\/p><p>Acendas Travel utilizes two different OBT options in building a managed travel program for its clients: Concur and Deem.
