CLC Saves Money on Business Lodging

WICHITA, Kan., May 17 /PRNewswire/ -- With the installation of nearly 10,000 megawatts of new generating capacity in 2009, enough to serve over 2.4 million homes, the wind industry is clearly a big player in the energy market. The uptick in alternative energy projects means that related construction, survey and engineer crews will be travelling more often to support them.

Wind industry CFOs and human resource managers can rest easy knowing they can save substantially on crew lodging with Corporate Lodging Consultants (CLC) while providing their crews the quality hotels and rest they deserve.

CLC brings its workforce travel solutions to the 2010 Windpower Conference and Exhibition in Dallas, Texas, May 23-26. With savings of up to 30% along with operational benefits such as direct billing, improved tracking and reporting and 24-hour support for travelers, CLC streamlines the lodging management process.

Nordex USA, a prominent wind turbine producer, is one of CLC's thousands of satisfied clients. Dan Morrison, Vice President of Project Management and Services, is pleased with the impact on the company's bottom line. "Very quickly we saw that we could make some real savings in our hotel costs," Morrison said. "And CLC also saves us time – now it's easy for our employees to find acceptable hotels wherever they need to be."

Large companies will find the suite of workforce travel solutions attractive, while small to medium-size companies can take advantage of CLC's savings cards program and receive the same deep savings that larger organizations enjoy.

CLC also will attend the 2010 National Business Travel Association Convention and Expo in Houston, Texas, Aug. 8-10. Stop by booth 2167 to learn more about crew lodging.
