American Subcontractors Association - National (ASA)
American Subcontractors Association Welcomes Modern Travel Platform, Engine, as Silver Sponsor
With construction crews spending more time on the road, and constantly changing schedules, Engine is an invaluable platform helping subcontractors save time and money on business travel
The American Subcontractors Association (ASA) has welcomed its latest Silver Sponsor: Engine, the modern travel platform for booking and managing business trips. Engine is a no-cost, no-commitment platform that makes it easy
for businesses to book hotels, flights, and car rentals while keeping their travel spend on-budget.
Construction companies use Engine to find accommodations, whether they’re looking for long-term lodging near a job site or booking a last-minute stay late at night. On average, these companies save 26% at over 750,000 hotels. Crews benefit from features including:
● Coverage for incidentals
● Smooth check-in process
● The ability to search for amenities such as truck parking, laundry, or gyms
● Coverage for modifications or cancellations - even same-day
Engine even handles group bookings, managing every step of the process from negotiating and reserving room blocks to reconciling charges after check-out. It helps crews seamlessly adapt to changing project timelines and provides robust cost management tools. Businesses benefit from full financial oversight, including the ability to visualize expenditures in real-time and accurately forecast travel spend.
"For many of our members, frequent travel is a fact of life," said Richard Bright, CEO of ASA. "Engine’s dedication to improving travel for businesses of all sizes mirrors our commitment to giving subcontractors access to the tools and techniques they need to achieve success in every aspect of their work.”
As a Silver Sponsor, Engine will participate in ASA webinars, contribute content to The Contractor’s Compass, and participate in ASA events. "We know that booking lodging places a significant strain on subcontractors, specialty
contractors, and suppliers. It’s much too large a burden from a cost and time perspective, not to mention the stress it causes for crews on the road. Our entire business is focused on reducing these burdens, which is why we see close alignment with ASA’s mission of serving the construction industry," said Thomas Dale, Engine’s VP of Partnerships. "We welcome the opportunity to connect with ASA members through the Silver Sponsorship and to continue to strengthen our partnership with the community.”
