Maximize your SAP Concur investment with Christopherson’s TMC Elite Partner expertise

When it comes to managing business travel, SAP Concur is one of the most trusted tools for booking, expense tracking, and compliance management. But to maximize your SAP Concur investment, it pays to partner with a travel management company (TMC) that knows it inside and out.

That’s where Christopherson stands apart. Considered one of the best SAP Concur TMC Elite Partners, we bring unmatched knowledge, proven processes, and ongoing support to help clients simplify operations and deliver a better travel experience for every employee.

“As a TMC with the highest SAP Concur partner status, we’ve supported nearly a thousand clients in building efficient, policy-aligned SAP Concur programs,” said Dawn Meadows, manager of online travel operations at Christopherson. “Our Elite Partner status simply formalizes what our clients already experience: expert integration and support at every step.”

What is an SAP Concur TMC Elite Partner?

SAP Concur’s partner program includes multiple tiers, but TMC Elite is the highest. This top-level distinction is awarded to travel management companies that demonstrate deep experience, consistent performance, and proven client success across the Concur ecosystem.

To achieve Elite Partner status, Christopherson demonstrated:

  • Extensive experience with SAP Concur tools, including Concur Travel, Concur Expense, Concur Compleat (transaction automation), and TripLink.
  • Proven ability to deliver optimized configurations, support, and integration for diverse corporate travel programs.
  • Alignment with SAP Concur’s intelligent enterprise approach, ensuring seamless experiences across booking, approvals, reporting, and expense management.

In short: Elite status recognizes TMCs that deliver the highest levels of performance, integration, and client support.

Why should I work with an SAP Concur TMC Elite Partner like Christopherson?

If your organization uses or is planning to implement SAP Concur, partnering with an Elite-level TMC like Christopherson offers measurable advantages, including:
