Managing corporate accommodation efficiently is a strategic imperative in today's dynamic corporate environment. Whether for short-term business travel or long-term relocations, a centrally managed accommodation programme offers a comprehensive solution that can streamline operations, reduce costs, and enhance employee satisfaction.
By combining short and long stays under one umbrella, companies can consolidate their accommodation spend and leverage technology to create a holistic programme that meets diverse needs. AltoVita’s platform is uniquely positioned to facilitate this approach, offering vetted, flexible accommodation solutions across the globe.
A centrally managed corporate accommodation programme is a strategic tool that can significantly enhance an organisation’s efficiency and financial health.
Here’s how:
Managing corporate accommodation across multiple departments and locations can be a logistical nightmare. A centralised programme reduces administrative complexity, allowing companies to consolidate spending across departments, thereby, achieving better-negotiated rates and reducing overall costs.
AltoVita’s platform consolidates a vast inventory of properties, from hotels to traditional corporate housing solutions, allowing companies to benefit from streamlined processes and economies of scale.
A centrally managed programme ensures that accommodation policies are consistently enforced across all departments and locations. This uniformity is critical for maintaining compliance with corporate travel policies and ensuring duty of care for employees.
AltoVita’s technology offers real-time booking visibility, which empowers companies to enforce compliance and make data-driven decisions. AltoVita’s platform also integrates with existing systems to enhance compliance.
Seamlessly managing short and long stays within a single platform is a game-changer for corporate accommodation programmes.
Serviced apartments offer a cost-effective and comfortable alternative to traditional hotels, especially for extended stays (+3 nights). They provide more space, kitchen facilities, and a homelier environment, which can significantly improve employee well-being and productivity.
Combining short and long stays within a single programme allows companies to cater to diverse needs, from short-term business trips to extended relocations.
AltoVita’s platform offers unparalleled flexibility so companies can scale their accommodation needs up or down as required. It also provides real-time access to a vast inventory so that companies can meet their accommodation needs quickly and efficiently.
One of the most significant advantages of a centrally managed accommodation programme is the ability to consolidate spend, which can lead to substantial cost savings.
By combining spending across different departments, companies can strengthen their negotiation leverage and secure better rates and terms from accommodation providers. This consolidated approach reduces costs and simplifies financial management and reporting.
AltoVita’s platform optimises negotiations by providing companies with detailed analytics and reporting tools. These tools enable companies to track spending, monitor market rates, and make informed decisions that maximise value.
Technology plays a crucial role in successfully implementing and managing a centrally managed accommodation programme.
Here’s how:
Centralised data management provides real-time visibility into accommodation spend, allowing companies to make data-driven decisions and optimise their programmes.

Automation is crucial in reducing manual errors and enhancing decision-making. AltoVita’s platform automates booking processes and approval flows, which frees up valuable time and resources for companies. This automation leads to faster response times, fewer errors, and better overall management of corporate accommodation programmes.
