The Challenge

Complex and opaque payment networks, diverse travel contracts, and inefficient expense systems cost companies millions annually.

Organisations are burdened by disjointed processes, hidden risks, and missed opportunities for rebates, incentives, and optimised cash flows.

Few companies have the time, resources or expertise to capture maximum savings and efficiency without incurring the cost of building an in-house team.

Our approach

We combine strategic insight with practical execution to help organisations achieve sustainable value from their travel and payments ecosystems.

1. Assess the Current State

Leverage market intelligence, benchmark against best practice, conduct gap analysis and identify opportunities for improvement.

2. Create the Scope

Design strategies to capture opportunities identified in the diagnostic phase.

3. Execute with Impact

Deliver agreed initiatives with agility and discipline, ensuring measurable improvements.

4. Report

Measure performance, provide transparent reports against KPIs, highlight successes, and identify areas for further refinement.

Case Studies

Client Success

Real-world examples of how Conduca has delivered measurable results for clients through consulting interventions.

Case Study 1: Corporate Travel Optimisation

Conduca partnered with a major multinational to identify and realise significant travel savings across two priority areas: airline sourcing and Travel Management Company optimisation.

Airlines

16% / $5.7M

Savings (3.2% / $1.2M Incremental – no change of behaviour)

24.7% / $8.9M

Savings Opportunity (12% / $4.3M Incremental – 50% market share movement)

Objectives: Review Airline contracts to identify meaningful savings while maintaining traveller experiences, and outline practical change-management steps to achieve next-level cost efficiencies.

Travel Management Company

Objectives: Review TMC contracts to establish service standards, reduce costs and remove conflict of interest.
$1.35M

Savings

$1.4M

Additional Savings Opportunity –  from increased visibility in booking and approval process.

New Structure: Establish consistent measurable KPIs, consistent methodology and pricing transparency.

Case Study 2: Large-Scale Retailer

USD 180M

Procurement Programme Size

Solution

A P-Card solution delivered via a PayFac platform, leveraging preferential scheme fees and customised routing to maximise cost efficiency and process automation.

Key Outcomes

30 → 83 Days

Extended Days Payable Outstanding (DPO)

Improved Cash Conversion: Freed up liquidity to enhance operational efficiency.
Strengthened Balance Sheet: Better cash flow management contributed to overall financial stability and resilience.

Case Study 3: Fare Audit

We worked with a travel manager to verify the real value delivered by their suppliers. Unlike a retrospective review, this was a real-time audit of both airfares and hotel rates.

Airlines

Objectives: Run a multi-carrier audit of all air tickets issued within one hour of booking and include NDC and web fares for comparison.

Results (one month)

14% / $62,846

Savings from fare variance (same class, carrier, flight, flexibility)

Example: Route Audit

Sydney ⇄ Seoul (Business Class)

$8,400 → $4,100
