Professional services giant Accenture’s 2020 U.S.-booked and
global air spending dropped about 80 percent from the year prior. U.S. T&E
was also down significantly from $607 million, as was global T&E from $1.2
billion in 2019.
Accenture for years has used an internally developed expense
management system called MyTE. Accenture last year implemented globally a
travel-approval process to limit travel and ensure traveler safety amid the
Covid-19 pandemic. Even so, Accenture continued to grow last year to 537,000
employees in 2020 from about 492,000 employees as of the end of August 2019.
