TMCs

NDC for TMCs that still need agent control

TMCs need NDC content without losing servicing discipline, policy visibility, corporate fare handling, and agent productivity. NDCTerm is built around the operational side of airline NDC.

Corporate travel needs more than shopping

TMCs care about policy, account codes, traveler communication, duty-of-care context, refunds, exchanges, and consistent servicing. NDC has to fit that workflow.

TMC workflow Why it matters NDCTerm approach
Corporate fares Account codes and agreements depend on carrier setup. WP/AC*CORP123 style pricing
Policy review Agents need to understand fare brand and service differences. Structured offer comparison
Servicing Changes and refunds must be controlled and auditable. Quote-before-confirm workflows
Automation Contact-center work can benefit from AI with approval gates. AI can draft and request approval

What agents should expect

Policy-aware comparison

Fare brands, bags, changes, and services need to be visible before the booking decision.

Corporate fare realism

Private content depends on carrier agreements and agency credentials, not a universal switch.

Controlled servicing

Refunds, changes, voids, and splits should expose the airline quote before commit.

Automation-ready primitives

The same commands that agents use can support supervised AI workflows for repetitive servicing.
