OAG and FCm form strategic alliance for web-based solution
Published: 06 Feb 2008
OAG and FCm Travel Solutions have formed a strategic alliance "to deliver a ground-breaking one-stop travel planning and booking solution to revolutionize the way people arrange and manage business travel."
OAG Travel Planner Pro is a brand new online business travel planning application which enables business travellers and professional travel arrangers to plan, book and manage multiple trip plans for multiple travellers, and to create highly complex itineraries in a very easy to use, intuitive and intelligent online environment.
The product is scheduled for launch in early April.
David Rosen, Managing Director, OAG Travel Solutions, said the partnership will take OAG into the transaction and fulfilment arena for the first time.
"Our subscribers have been asking us to do this as part of our focus on travel planning. OAG Travel Planner Pro is the first and only source of complete and unbiased information for planning and managing trips, using the same OAG database that keeps the global travel industry moving," he said.
Rosen continued, "For many years our customers have relied on OAG's electronic products for the most comprehensive and independent information to build even the most complex itinerary, but until now they have had to go elsewhere to make bookings. Now, with OAG Travel Planner Pro, they will have everything in one place in a really easy to use and intuitive online application. We are confident they won't need, or want, to go anywhere else to arrange business travel. Travel management companies, an important client group for us, may wish to 'white label' it for their own clients."

Here is the key sentence from the above article: "Travel management companies, an important client group for us, may wish to 'white label' it for their own clients."
Just a hunch, but I would say that this is going to be the most successful part of this new online service.
