Worktopia Enables Sourcing of Onsite Meetings Alongside Off-Site Options
Breakthrough Innovation Allows Meeting Arrangers to Compare Off-Site and Internal Meeting Venues Side-by-Side for Savings, While Providing Executives Central Visibility and Control
WHITE PLAINS, N.Y., Feb. 17 /PRNewswire/ -- Worktopia, Inc., the leading provider of real-time sourcing solutions for small and simple meetings, today unveiled the latest release of its Universal Meeting Solution™ (UMS), which now allows corporate customers to search, compare and book internal meeting rooms and video/telepresence facilities in the same real-time booking workflow as used for sourcing offsite meeting venues.
UMS now provides meeting planners the ability to easily determine whether an onsite facility is available or if an offsite meeting venue is best aligned with the value of the meeting itself. "Small on-site meetings, those held in corporate training facilities, internal meeting rooms and video conferencing studios can play an important role in managing costs if they are made available as an alternative during the sourcing process," said John Arenas, Worktopia CEO. He added, "The reporting and data made available by bringing on-site and off-site meeting sourcing together will mean a new level of visibility and control allowing travel and procurement executives to further optimize return on meeting spend."
