SUCCESS STORY

Amey

Amey is an infrastructure company working with over 15 local authorities including  Birmingham, Sheffield and Staffordshire. They also partner with clients including Highways  England, BAA, United Utilities, Network Rail, and MOD. Overseas Amey works with the  Metropolitan Transport Authority in New York as well as Australia’s Roads and Maritime Services

Amey elected to implement this self-service model whereby all bookings require approval. In addition, all Air bookings required authorisation from an Executive Director so different levels of authorisation were built into the system. We needed to cover a  system that included multiple approvers so that the absences of the approver could be covered. Certain projects gave travel administrators the authority to book without authorisation as long as they were making bookings for others.
