Arrangement of Crew Accommodation
PRODEFIS CAP
CAP is a highly automated crew travel management system. The System offers complete support in arrangement of crew accommodation and positioning and in management of respective suppliers.
After the planning is done, the actual work begins. Appropriate hotels and transport companies need to be chosen and bookings and cancellations must be made and tracked.
The underlying activities are very complex, cross-departmental and often require the same data to be managed more than once. Moreover, there may be internal and external communications that are prone to error.
CAP can support you by offering:
- Comprehensive reporting
- Complete process support for the departments involved
- A role-based access control to enable cross-departmental usage
- Management of contracts, contingents and prices of hotels and transport companies
- Automatic booking/cancellation and tracking of accommodation and positioning
- Automatic communication with hotels and transport companies via e-mail, fax, SITA etc.
