Trip Affiliates Network (TA Network) & Sri Sutra Travel (SST) partner to launch & grow regional digitalisation partnerships, combining SST’s regional TMC operational capabilities & with TA Network’s cloud-based enterprise software SaaS solutions
TA Network - a high-performance distribution & turnkey solutions & connectivities provider that brings together Asia Pacific’s leading travel wholesalers, operators & destination management companies onto a single open travel ecosystem
TA Network platform is designed to leverage technology solutions adopted by hotels to facilitate their direct connectivity, automate their inventory management processes with their traditional offline contractors, which would otherwise require both parties to manually update their booking inventory & retrieve booking confirmations. This also eliminates overbooking/ under-booking issues associated with room allotments as well as potential human errors in manually maintaining hotel contracts
In addition, TA Network’s digital payment solutions (BorderXP) empower clients with virtual card or local fund transfer services to process payments dynamically with their business partners & minimise payment fees, particular cross border & FX fees
Managing Director & Founder of SST Dato Syed added, “SST is a travel conglomerate under the SUTRA TRAVEL MANAGEMENT GROUP, well established with a large corporate & non-corporate clientele & over 1 million travel-related products & services that encompass all the travel components. The collaboration with TA Network will extend SST’s capabilities in providing more effective & optimised accommodation solutions via direct contracting.”
Overseeing the project & integrations, Director of Growth & Partnerships, Thomas Wong added, “ with our innovative & agile solutions TA Network will streamline operations & enhance significantly connectivity to SST to increase review output & reduce manpower which will be a major productivity gain as a whole. As we grow into new regions across the globe, we are happy to add SST to the growing TA Network ecosystem.”
