Introduction

Most organizations managing travel don't have a travel manager. They have someone who inherited the program.

A finance director who also owns vendor relationships. A procurement lead who handles air contracts between everything else on their desk. An executive assistant who books travel and somehow became the point of contact for the TMC. These are capable people doing their best with a function that has real complexity and real money at stake.

Travel Program Coaching is built for exactly that situation. Over 90 days, we work directly with the person or team responsible for your travel program, conduct a full audit of where it stands, and build the knowledge, frameworks, and roadmap they need to run it with confidence. Not a generic curriculum. Not a certification course. A structured advisory engagement built entirely around your program, your vendors, and your challenges.

What This Is And What It Isn't

This is not a classroom. There are no slides, no modules, no homework assignments.

Every session is a working session. We start with a complete audit of your current program state, spend, policy, TMC performance, supplier contracts, and compliance gaps. From there, every conversation is grounded in what we found: what is working, what isn't, what your vendors owe you that they aren't delivering, and what your program could look like under active, informed management.

By the end of 90 days, the person running your travel program understands it the way a seasoned travel director would. They know what questions to ask their TMC. They know when a supplier contract is competitive and when it isn't. They know how to read their program data and what to do with it. That knowledge doesn't leave when the engagement ends.

The ROI Case Is Not Complicated

Corporate travel is one of the largest controllable expense categories in most organizations. It is also one of the least actively managed.

Programs without dedicated strategic expertise consistently overpay on supplier contracts, carry unused credits that expire quietly, and operate with policy compliance gaps that compound across every quarter they go unaddressed. The recoverable value in most programs significantly exceeds the cost of this engagement often before the first quarter is complete.

We document what we find and what we recover throughout the engagement. The math is always visible.

Key Features:

Program Audit

Before any advisory work begins, we conduct a complete review of your program, spend, policy, TMC relationship, supplier contracts, and compliance. You see exactly where you stand before we go further.

Bi-Weekly Advisory Sessions

Six structured sessions over 90 days, focused entirely on your program. We cover what was found in the audit, how to address it, and how to build the internal competency to manage it going forward.

Async Support Between Sessions

Vendor situations don't wait for the next scheduled call. Between sessions, you have direct access for time-sensitive questions, contract language reviews, and decisions that need an expert read before you respond.

Supplier & TMC Contract Review

We review every active supplier agreement and your TMC contract against current market benchmarks. You'll know exactly what is competitive, what needs to be renegotiated, and when.

Policy Assessment 

We evaluate your travel policy against your organization's actual traveler behavior and current market standards. We identify what's working, what's being ignored, and what needs to change.

Final Program Roadmap

Every engagement closes with a documented, prioritized plan, what was found, what was addressed, and what your program needs next. Whether you continue with StratTrav or take it from here independently, you are not starting over.


The person running your travel program deserves to actually understand it. Let's make that happen.
