Lanyon to Launch Revolutionary Total Hospitality Spend Management™ Platform, the First Integrated Solution to Address Every Aspect of Corporate Hospitality Spend

Lanyon, Inc. (www.lanyon.com) today announced the availability of Lanyon Total Hospitality Spend Management ™, the first integrated solution to manage every aspect of corporate hospitality spend.

The Lanyon Total Hospitality Spend Management solution is the first industry platform that consolidates every aspect of corporate hospitality spend that have previously been managed within separate applications; including transient hotel, meetings and events, engagements and projects, and rate integrity capabilities.  Lanyon Total Hospitality is the first and only industry solution that allows corporate travel buyers to source and manage every aspect of their hospitality spend through a single, unified system.

"The Lanyon tool assists our travel professionals in bringing all aspects of corporate hospitality into one application.  This unified approach has made it more efficient for us to improve efficiency and control spending," said Pam Lorows, travel analyst, Corning Incorporated.

Unifying all hospitality spend into a single platform provides travel buyers significant advantages, including; a simplified sourcing process, access to the industry’s largest database of properties across all hospitality spend categories, unified data capture and reporting, greater ability to capture and leverage enterprise spend, increase global savings and transparent spend visibility across all categories.

“The launch of Lanyon Total Hospitality Spend Management is in many ways the fulfillment of the promise of a simplified and unified process that travel buyers have been seeking for many years.  The launch of this platform represents the culmination of painstaking research, planning, customer interaction and execution, and we are extremely excited to offer this revolutionary solution to the hospitality marketplace,” said Todd Tyler, President & Chief Executive Officer for Lanyon.  

Lanyon Total Hospitality Spend Management allows travel buyers to sign onto a single application where they can source properties and venues for all spend categories.  Travel buyers can source properties by location, category, ratings, and many other criteria.  Each property contains a rich set of information including detailed descriptions of property features and amenities, photos, videos, meetings and event space, services and transportation.  All sourcing activities for every category are contained within the platform allowing for a unified view of sourcing and savings activities for the business enterprise.

Travel suppliers have the unprecedented ability to highlight their properties across multiple spend categories and feature their points of differentiation to travel buyers who might otherwise have not discovered their properties.  Lanyon Total Hospitality Spend Management contains the largest hospitality sourcing database in the marketplace, including corporate housing locations, extended stay properties, and traditional hotel properties and meeting venues.
