Software and technology firm Sabre has signed a multi-year agreement to help power Norway-based travel management company (TMC) Berg-Hansen’s traveller experience.

Berg-Hansen will leverage Southlake, Texas-based Sabre’s technology to not only fortify its revenue base but also ensure that travellers have access to all the available prices and products.

Berg-Hansen CEO Per Arne Villadsen said: “We need a technology partner to help us build technology for our future growth in the Nordics. Through Sabre, we’re now able to leverage the latest technology to create compelling shopping experiences for our customers – and our agents have access to the broadest reach of travellers.  Alongside this, we’re making long-term investments in technology to support our future growth.”

Sabre’s Native APIs, which support open-platform development, will be a key focus of this technology boost.

Powered by Sabre technology, the 1875-established TMC will be able to create its own platform and develop an application which can connect to the Sabre Red 360 agency desktop. This will, in turn, enable the Norwegian travel agency to handle multiple source bookings.

Sabre Travel Solutions vice president for EMEA Salman Syed said: “Agencies like Berg-Hansen are looking to secure a competitive edge. They need to stay agile as the global situation develops – and they recognise the role advanced technology can play in their success.
