Services
We are your competent partner for all topics relating to travel & expenses. Our international specialists support you during the end-to-end deployment of sustainable software solutions; careful selection, strategic planning, expert implementation, excellent training and proficient maintenance/support.
Consulting
From booking flights and choosing a hotel to reserving a restaurant for lunch with an important client – your employees leave nothing to chance when preparing your business trip. As a company, you are just as careful in selecting the software that enables your employees to plan and book their travel, create expense reports and receive reimbursements.
To reduce costs while at the same time increasing efficiency, it makes sense to globally harmonize the processes for travel and expense management. Our specialists will explain to you the available options and advise you during the selection of the best suited suppliers and products. We’ll help you find the optimal solution, taking into account the varying requirements in differing markets, regions or of different legal entities and departments within your company - as well as tax legislations and other regulatory requirements across the globe.
Our experts have many years of experience in the travel and expense management area – both nationally and internationally. We will help you find the solution that fits your company best - not just a solution.
Project Management
Your business trips have a clearly defined goal. Does this also apply to the business travel process within your company? Continuous project management is indispensable to ensure you don’t end up going awry. We help you create a clear and concise project objective, define the requirements, plan the individual project phases, design the platform, configure the platform and deploy it to the target markets.
Our team is the bridge between you, the new technology, the vendor of the chosen solution and the involved third parties.
Our team will keep you informed about the current status of your project at all times, identify possible obstacles early on, avoid or mitigate them, stay within the allocated budget and deliver on time.
Implementation
Have you already found a global travel & expense solution? Then it’s time to implement it. This process commonly requires more than just an implementation team or resource provided by the software vendor. And your internal team most likely does not know how to ensure that the chosen software platform is utilized to its fullest capabilities.
Together with the TMCON team, you rise to this challenge. Our project managers support you during the roll-out, assist you with their technical expertise and prepare your employees for the use of the travel tool in training courses that are tailored to your company. During the implementation phase, if required, we also provide you with additional personnel to lighten your employees’ workload.

Managed Expense Audit Services
We offer Expense Audit services to our clients, drastically reducing the burden placed on Finance teams.
With our partner AppZen and its AppZen Expense Audit Solution powered by Artificial Intelligence, we can implement the perfect system to auto-approve fully-compliant expense reports and manually audit those that are non-compliant.
We investigate the reasons for non-compliance, interact with your employees and approve expense reports once all expense entries are fully compliant. The data we collect provides information for quarterly management reports and we also use our findings to provide trainings/refreshers to your employees to ensure your policies are understood and followed.
