CEMEX UK will transition to a new travel management company – CWT™ – from Monday 5th October 2020.  If you travel for business you must register on the new system as soon as possible.

What does this mean?

• From Monday 5th October 2020, all advance accommodation and travel, both in the UK and internationally, must be booked through the CWT travel program
• CWT is available online via a desktop platform (https://travel.mycwt.com/), as well as using a mobile app. There is also a telephone booking line.
• You can book travel including flights and trains, as well as accommodation via the booking line. For digital methods you can book accommodation only.
• CWT is separate to the Concur expenses management system and should be used alongside it. The travel facility within Concur will not be activated.
• The platform is available now, and can be used for any hotel or travel bookings you make this month – giving you an opportunity to get used to the program before the transition date in October.

All CEMEX employees who travel for business must register for the myCWT platform as soon as possible via https://travel.mycwt.com/ or by searching myCWT on the app store. As part of this, you must update your profile to include your contact information (including phone number) and credit card

Why are we moving to this new program now?

• The use of CWT offers UK employees increased security benefits, similar to those previously offered by the Global Security Centre:
  • When bookings are made through CWT employees will receive travel safety advice as well as bespoke messages from CEMEX, plus a direct link to the services of International SOS.
• CWT also achieves cost savings as better pricing and service with suppliers can be negotiated when all bookings are made through one system.
• While the Coronavirus pandemic has greatly impacted business travel and we understand many of us will not need to use this platform currently, we wanted to give everyone plenty of notice to sign up and test CWT before all bookings must be made through the system.
  • In particular, whilst business travel overseas is restricted, some employees still need to travel throughout the UK and stay overnight where there is a specific business need.
• This system is an important way to ensure safe and efficient travel as we gradually return to business as usual.
