Platform
One structure for the way business travel is run.
Travel is easier to control when the request, the approval, the arrangement and the report follow the same path. This is how 13 Weeks Travel organises that work. The service is the team that carries it out with you.
Example workflow
From request to record, in one place.
Travellers request. Approvers decide. The desk arranges. Finance receives the record.

What sits behind the workflow.
Each part of corporate travel management, connected in one structure.

Travel requests
Purpose, dates, route and arrangements asked for in a consistent way.

03
Approvals
A decision recorded before flights, hotels or ground transport are confirmed.
-

Policy controls
Your standards applied to the request, with exceptions shown to the approver.

-
08
Traveller support
A known contact when plans change, from departure through to return.
Managed with you, not left with you.
The platform is the way the work is held together. Your travellers and approvers use a clear process. 13 Weeks Travel arranges the journeys, supports people while they are away, and brings expenses, receipts and reporting back to the business.
- Requests stay attached to a purpose and an approver.
- Policy is visible before spend is committed.
- Flights, hotels and ground transport sit on the same trip.
- The record closes with cost, documents and a report.
