“With pharma in particular, it’s crucial that we have a policy and process for everything. When COVID-19 upended our standard procedures, we had to accommodate new realities nearly overnight to support our essential workers on the road. Traveler Engagement empowered us to shift gears quickly, helping us create a policy for pandemic travel conditions. With the expertise of our Advito consultants, we are confident that we have the knowledge and resources we need to evolve quickly as the travel landscape itself continues to evolve.”
