This week saw the official launch date for our new corporate travel program; CWT™.

Moving forward, all advance accommodation and travel (excluding train and car hire), both in the UK and internationally, must be booked through the CWT travel program.

Please use your normal way of booking trains. Also remember that car hire will also still only be booked through Alphabet.

As a reminder:

• CWT is available online via a desktop platform (https://travel.mycwt.com/) as well as using a mobile app.
• There is a telephone booking line for flights or accommodation – Tel: 0203 353 0240 and help email at UK@CONTACTCWT.COM (both available Mon to Fri 9.00am – 5.30pm).

• You can book flights as well as accommodation via the booking line.
• For digital methods you can book accommodation only.

• The use of CWT offers UK employees increased security benefits similar to that 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.

How does this system work? 

• The CWT program allows you to book hotels and travel quickly and easily.
• You can book flights as well as accommodation via the booking line. For digital methods you can book accommodation only.

• A quick Start Guide for registering for the myCWT platform. All users will need to register for the platform before Monday 5^th October, either on desktop or via the app.
• A step by step guide for using the platform – both via the desktop website and the app.
• Contact sheet: this contains all the details you will need for booking travel over the phone if you would prefer to use this method. You can also use these details if you have any questions or need support with the system.
• A helpful FAQs document. Please let us know if you have any questions you think should be added to this.
• Once travel is booked through the system an invoice will be directly emailed to you, which you can then upload to Concur when you raise expenses claims.
• If you do not have a company credit card, a virtual card and invoice account has been set up which you can use. Please contact Alan Venning for more details.

If I haven’t already done so, how do I use the platform? 

• 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.

• Each employee who travels for business needs to have their own account – you should not book travel for yourself through someone else’s platform.

• Ensure your account has your own work mobile number registered – this will mean you personally receive the security advice for and during your trip.
• Executive travellers need to ensure their account contains their own contact information – not the details of the person booking travel for them.

• You can then use this platform to book any business travel immediately.

If you have any questions about the program contact ukfsc.uk@contactcwt.com

If you need technical help updating your profile or assistance with the app/portal call 0845 603 3021.

Thank you for your support as we adapt our business to ensure travel is safe and cost-effective for all.
