New Pricing Support for Black Car and Limo Charges Provides Accurate Billing and Savings

Advanced pricing capability estimates over 15% savings resulting from unsubstantiated or incorrect calculation of car service charges

NEW YORK, Jan. 8 -- Qdrivium announced today the launch of an advanced pricing engine for their online car service billing solution to support multiple rate books as well as different zones and border definitions for clients who offer black car or limo services for their employees. This feature estimates over 15% savings resulting from unsubstantiated or incorrect calculations of car service charges to provide accurate, consistent and reliable billing.

Most corporate clients have multiple car companies servicing their account and they all calculate fares differently. With the Qdrivium pricing engine, clients can now uphold pricing terms using multiple rate books, different zone structures and different zone border definitions used by black car and limo companies.

The Qdrivium solution offers corporations the robust cost-management capability they need to help ensure accurate pricing, forecasting, control and billing over car service expenses and budgets across multiple service providers and different regions. Some features include:

   -- Save money and uphold contract pricing terms for multiple car
      companies using different rate books, zones and boundaries to
      accurately calculate fares including flat rates, multiple stops, wait
      time charges, NY State and NJ sales tax, fuel surcharge and more
   -- There is no disruption or changes to existing business operations
   -- Clients can quickly and easily add or remove car companies to an
      account at anytime
   -- Provides a seamless upgrade path to consolidate and standardize on a
      single rate book
   -- Centralized view into all car service charges are clearly itemized and
      displayed in real-time
   -- Obtain a true cost evaluation and competitive analysis across all
      service providers gaining valuable insight into business operations
      and costs to maintain accurate billing records, budgets and
      forecasting of expenses using advanced business intelligence reporting
   -- Ability to price out multiple stops by each service provider before a
      reservation is made
   -- Transparent insight into zone and pricing calculations

"With the Qdrivium pricing engine, clients can now be assured of accurate, consistent and reliable billing of car service charges whether they use multiple rate books, different zone definitions or how different zones are priced." said Fletcher Chenn, President and CEO.
