GlobalStar to utilise Magnatech software solutions

GlobalStar Travel Management has formed a global partnership with software developer Magnatech Travel Management Solutions.

The partnership will see GlobalStar receive preferential member rates for access to Magnatech’s automated risk messaging and duty of care platform SafeToGo, as well as its automated workflow solution, MTWorkflows.

SafeToGo features real-time traveller tracking, risk alerts that can be integrated with the traveller’s itinerary information, as well as robust communication channels.

MTWorkflows meanwhile is designed to streamline workflows such as messaging, quality control, passenger name record (PNR) validation, auto-ticketing, policy validation, and pre-trip approval.

The arrangement will also allow GlobalStar’s partners and their clients to access Magnatech’s “universal portal interface”.

“Our collaboration with Magnatech opens up new avenues for our partners to further extend the duty of care they provide as standard to their clients,” said Julian Russell, Executive Director of IT and Supplier Relations at GlobalStar. “We believe that both solutions, SafeToGo and MTWorkflows are game-changers, and we’re excited to see the positive impact they will have on the network.”

Specialist travel insurer Outbacker recently launched a community-based emergency contacts app for its customers.
