TQ3 Maritz Travel
Solutions , one of the leading global travel management companies, and iJET
Travel Intelligence, the travel risk management company, announced today
the participation of TQ3 Maritz in iJET`s Travel Agency Partner Program
(TAPP).
TAPP enables travel management companies to quickly and easily offer
comprehensive travel risk management services to corporate clients.


Through the TAPP program, travel management companies` corporate clients are
provided with iJET`s real-time Travel Intelligence information delivered
through the state-of-the-art Worldcue® technology platform for monitoring
and communicating with travelers. TQ3 Maritz plans to offer iJET`s travel
risk management services to their corporate customers in the early fall.

“General destination information was adequate for business travelers in the
past, but times have changed,” said TQ3 Maritz Senior Vice President, Mike
Koetting
. “Corporations and their travelers now require focused, real-time
intelligence to help maximize safety and productivity. iJET`s travel risk
management services meet that need.”
iJET intelligence experts continuously monitor events in 160 countries
through more than 5,000 worldwide sources. Security, travel, risk management
and other managers in client companies receive real-time advisories on
developments around the world. Via e-mail or wireless device, travelers are
automatically sent relevant real-time alerts about events that might impact
their trip, with recommendations for minimizing travel disruptions.
“TQ3 Maritz has been an industry leader in offering strong value to their
clients through a timely and comprehensive mix of products and solutions,”
said Bruce McIndoe, CEO of iJET. “We are pleased to assist TQ3 Maritz and
their customers in providing the strongest possible support for their
travelers.”
