GTA is a world-class provider of hotel accommodation, ground travel products, and related services to the travel trade, connecting Travel Suppliers with Travel Sellers around the globe.
Gullivers Travel
Associates (GTA)
began in 1975 as a
small but dynamic
tour operator bringing
groups from long-
haul markets such
as Asia into Europe.
Over 30 years later,
they are one of the
most successful
wholesalers of
hotels, ground travel
products and group
tours in the world.
GTA has achieved
steady global growth
during this time.
Sales and service
offices have been opened in strategic worldwide locations as trade
expanded in those countries. These offices have enabled GTA to
optimise the full inbound and outbound potential of each market
and ensure perfect placement to recognise and develop new and
emerging markets.
GTA currently employs several hundred staff at their offices in the City
of London. Due to the physical location of the site and the various
Emergency Exit routes this has divided those evacuating away from
the building. As a consequence this has caused a significant delay in
the reporting of a full head count following an evacuation.
The organisation’s Facilities Manager
has now incorporated the TAGEVAC®
system into their Emergency Plan
by zoning each floor separately. This
has ensured that the appointed Fire
Wardens are now able to confirm
their area is evacuated and report
this directly to the Fire Manager.
This simple action has significantly
reduced the time delay between
evacuation and reporting the
building is clear.
“By adopting TAGEVAC®, this has simplified and speeded up the reporting process. My Fire Wardens were given 5 minutes train-ing on how to use the system and got it straight away!”
