Project Overview:

Our enterprise client is launching a high-visibility global project to streamline compliance across approximately 50,000 international business trips per year (addressing cross-border tax, posted workers/A1, visa, and immigration requirements).

An external vendor has been selected via RFP to configure and deploy a dedicated travel compliance platform that will integrate via API into the client's internal HR/IT architecture. The client's internal Business Lead will handle overall executive decision-making and top-level stakeholder alignment.
