Supporting key workers during the COVID-19 pandemic

Discover how ATPI Corporate Travel supported an infrastructure group’s key workers during the coronavirus pandemic.

The challenge 

Whilst the UK was told to stay at home, our client’s key workers needed to continue to travel and stay away from home in order to work. Their role included playing a vital role in the construction of the UK’s temporary COVID-19 hospitals.

Around 500 of the client’s employees needed accommodation in over fifty locations across the UK. However there were limited options due to hotel closures, which included properties on the client’s hotel programme. The situation was made more challenging by the fact that many properties had not updated their online availability, so information could be misleading and inaccurate. The situation fluctuated from day to day, with hotels closing or re-opening at short notice. Clear information was also required regarding dining options, as all hotel restaurants and associated facilities were closed.

Find out how ATPI Corporate Travel worked to ensure their client could deliver on their planned projects, as well as the construction of temporary hospitals, during the coronavirus pandemic within the case study.
