How an engagement works
One operating model for delivery and daily operations

- Deploy with separate staging and production environments and access controls
- Migrate and reconcile bookings, customers and agents from the old system
- Connect and test supplier APIs, payments, CRM and ticketing
- Run monitoring, maintenance and servicing under agreed responsibilities
- Business type

- Channels
