Findings

Finding	Recommended action	Owner	Follow up by
Engineering spent 12% over its September budget, driven by 9 last-minute trips to the Leeds project site.	Agree a standing rail-first rule for Leeds site visits and book recurring visits 14 days ahead.	Travel manager with the Engineering director	2026-10-21
4 ticket credits worth $5,600 expire before 30 November.	Apply them to the travellers' next bookings with the same airlines. The travel team has flagged each traveller's profile.	silentVIP travel team	2026-10-15
2 refunds totalling $3,140 have been outstanding for more than 30 days.	Escalate with both airlines and report back with expected dates.	silentVIP account manager	2026-10-10
Out-of-policy bookings rose to 7.5% from 5.1% in August. 18 of the 31 were hotels over the London cap.	Review the London hotel cap against September's actual rates, or add two preferred hotels within it.	Finance controller	2026-10-31
6% of charges had no project code, so they could not be rebilled to clients.	Make the project code required for the Engineering and Sales policy groups.	Travel manager	2026-10-14
