BTN has received a handful of updates to individual listings after the CT100 was published. Currently listed: PepsiCo, Eli Lilly and Co.

PepsiCo
Purchase, N.Y.

2008 U.S. booked air volume: $84 million
U.S. T&E: $111 million

PepsiCo's expenses declined in the second half of 2008 in response to the general economy, similar to other corporations, and the company started a policy-revamping process.

In 2008, the beverage and snack conglomerate raised adoption for its Cliqbook online booking tool above 80 percent and focused on getting even tighter control on T&E spending through agency reporting, online booking and expense management tools.

Travelers in the United States report expenses through Concur, with rollout to SAP T&E expense management in 2009.

HRG handles travelers outside of the United States for 24 consolidated countries in Europe, the Middle East and Africa and the Asia/Pacific region, with BCD Travel managing Canada and select Latin and South American countries.

PepsiCo continues to use American Express as its preferred payment system provider.

Eli Lilly and Co.
Indianapolis

2008 US booked air volume: $72 million
Preferred vendors: Star Alliance, American, Northwest, Frontier; Starwood, Hilton, Hyatt, Marriott; National; Cliqbook; IBM
Consolidated U.S. agency: BCD Travel

Online travel reservations through Cliqbook in the United States increased slightly in 2008 to 40 percent of total transactions. With the implementation of a mandate in April 2009, the company has increased online adoption to 75 percent of total transactions.

Lilly continues to expand the use of the IBM expense reporting tool around the globe. Lilly employees use the U.S. Bank Visa as its corporate card in the United States.
