Message from our Chairperson
Dear Colleague
The Association of Travel Management Companies (ATMC) is the peak industry body for Travel Management Companies and represents a significant share of corporate travel expenditure in Australia – one of the most competitive and dynamic marketplaces.
​
Current market forces, a changing travel industry landscape, as well as shifting distribution models across the travel supply chain continue to challenge our members. Disruption intensified during the pandemic and continues to confront our members during the recovery phase.
​
ATMC advocates for effective multilateral partnerships with airlines, hotels, car-rental and technology companies to help our members deliver efficient solutions for corporate customers. While we tackle these challenges within our individual organisations, many issues require us to function as a united, cohesive front with one voice to drive positive outcomes in the pursuit of sustainable growth.
​
The Associations key objectives are to:
-
Represent the interests and concerns of members to our industry partners
-
Work together to ensure greater collaboration between major suppliers and TMC’s in customer interaction
-
Provide market feedback and commentary in relation to changes to supplier policies and technology development
-
Effectively promote and provide information on the value proposition of TMC’s to the corporate travel market
-
Through collaboration seek to establish best practice within our industry
-
Promote the corporate travel industry to attract a new generation of talent for our future growth
​
