Specialized DMC Duties Your Virtual Assistant Executes Daily

Free your account directors and on-site destination leaders to focus exclusively on winning bids and delivering high-touch VIP guest experiences. Delegate logistics drag to vetted travel operations experts.

Hotel Rooming List & Block Management

Eliminate catastrophic attrition penalties and check-in disasters. Your VA audits room block pick-up reports in Cvent Passkey or hotel matrices, cross-references corporate guest lists with bedding preferences, tracks VIP room upgrades, and submits finalized manifests prior to cutoff dates.

  • Real-time tracking of early arrivals and extended stays
  • Strict attrition date alerts to prevent financial penalties

Flight Manifest & Ground Transportation Dispatch

Stop losing hours manually grouping arrivals across 50 inbound flights. Your VA normalizes flight rosters, groups passengers into optimal shuttle departure windows, monitors delays via FlightAware, updates transfer companies, and provides formatted driver manifests.

  • Airport meet-and-greet staffing schedules and sign boards
  • Real-time vehicle load optimization for coach & private sedan fleets

RFP Sourcing & Tailored Proposal Building

Respond to high-value corporate MICE inquiries twice as fast. Your VA formats visual proposals in Travefy or Canva, gathers venue rate sheets, compiles high-resolution photography dossiers of local destinations, drafts program budgets, and inputs pricing into Tourplan or Lemax.

  • Comprehensive destination profile & seasonal activity decks
  • Competitive supplier rate comparison charts for bid reviews

Supplier Contracts, COIs & Voucher Issuance

Lock in local partners without administrative bottlenecks. Your VA issues purchase orders and confirmation vouchers to restaurants, private boat charters, tour guides, and entertainment vendors, chases signed partner contracts, and tracks vendor Certificates of Insurance (COIs).

  • Supplier payment term & cancellation policy monitoring
  • Digital voucher distribution to on-site tour managers

Dietary, Accessibility & F&B Banquet BEO Logs

Flawless dining coordination for groups of 20 to 2,000 guests. Your VA catalogs gluten-free, vegan, kosher, and allergen profiles across the attendee list, cross-references Banquet Event Orders (BEOs) with hotel caterers, and confirms dietary place cards for gala dinners.

  • Pre-clearing accessibility and ADA requirements for excursions
  • Headcount guarantee deadline reminders sent to catering managers

Deposit Milestones & Post-Program Reconciliation

Prevent cash flow leaks and dispute surprises after groups depart. Your VA tracks client deposit schedules, prepares milestone invoices, audits vendor master folios against actual consumption (bar tabs, extra transfers, overtime charges), and compiles final client billing books.

  • Multi-currency conversion reconciliation (USD, EUR, GBP, Local)
  • Transparent discrepancy logs for unrendered supplier services
