CTM delivers the first TMC-built technology solution to reach highest IATA NDC accreditation for sellers

Corporate Travel Management (CTM) is the first travel management company to receive IATA Level 4 NDC certification for proprietary TMC-built technology. CTM’s technology, which utilises its ‘Lightning’ online booking tool to make NDC bookings, is the first TMC-built solution to achieve IATA’s highest level of NDC accreditation for sellers, demonstrating the sophistication, maturity and agility of CTM’s global technology offering.

CTM’s Global COO Laura Ruffles said “It is great to be able to deliver our customers with best-in-class NDC capabilities via our online booking tool, Lightning. This accreditation demonstrates the advanced capability and agility of our customer-facing technology solutions, and supports our ongoing investment in developing travel technologies which can be developed, deployed and enhanced at speed. By owning our own technology solutions and investing in local technology teams in every region, we can develop highly valuable and relevant solutions for our customers and supplier partners aimed to deliver the best value.”

The IATA Level 4 NDC certification recognises that Corporate Travel Management uses Full Offer and Order management messages whose schemas are compliant with the standard NDC message schema, version 18.1.
