American Express Consumer Travel Network and Revelex Corporation Sign Agreement to Build New Travel Technology Solutions for American Express Travel Agents
American Express Consumer Travel Network and Revelex Corporation,
a provider of Enterprise-Class technology solutions, today announced
an agreement to jointly develop a new travel technology platform for
American Express´ travel agency network.
Leveraging Revelex´s proprietary travel application services and
new technology from both partners, Revelex will work with American
Express to develop a new, integrated consumer travel desktop, allowing
American Express travel agents to book air, car, hotel and cruise
travel in one application. The new robust technology will allow
American Express´ travel agents to book travel faster and more
efficiently across all servicing channels - call centers, travel
service offices, work-at-home agents - helping to increase agent
productivity, reporting, and enhancing the user experience. American
Express will pilot the technology platform in mid-2008 and plans to
begin a travel agent roll out in early 2009.
"We are thrilled to deliver such an exciting new platform to the
world´s pre-eminent provider of travel products and services," said
David Goodis, CEO of Revelex Corporation. "This agreement will enable
Revelex to combine all the functionality American Express´ travel
agents require into one, cohesive tool."
