Change in Travel Agency & Process, Now using Kintetsu
The following is only applicable to associates at DIAM (including those at affiliate locations), DMMI, ASMI/ASKY, DMAR, DMNC and KDMK.
Nippon Express, our current travel agency will be closing on Sat., Oct. 31. This will result in Concur Travel (not Concur Expense) being inaccessible to DENSO associates. While we work to secure a new long-term partner, we have implemented a temporary process through Kintetsu.
Effective Oct. 22, you must use Kintetsu for all travel reservations. This is a temporary process to use until further notice. Details on this below.
