Serviced apartment specialist Mysa has launched an intuitive interface for corporate partners to help simplify the end-to-end process of accommodation RFPs.

Called Axis by Myo, it has been initially launched to enable procurement of serviced accommodation but in the next stage of the development it will extend to hotels.

It can be used for RFPs both via TMCs or direct and provides two-way engagement between buyers and suppliers.

It has been designed to improve a process which is notoriously time-consuming by providing “360-degree visibility of each supplier’s safety, security and sustainability credentials as well as supporting rate negotiation through an instinctive user experience, aligned to duty of care”.

The tool empowers accommodation buyers to consider the credentials of each property, evaluate rates in minutes and engage directly with the supplier through the platform.

It also allows for integration of buyer’s bespoke considerations related to sustainability and social responsibilities.

Gary Hurst, Founder and CEO Mysa, said: “Axis is the culmination of many discussions with corporate buyers and TMCs related to accommodation RFP processes.

“When we created the opportunity to procure serviced accommodation directly, we wanted to ensure all users experienced a significant improvement on existing traditional processes and offered a simplified way of sourcing and procuring.

“The improvement is so significant, we are planning to extend the use of Axis for hotel RFPs, due to the demand. It allows us to take the directive of the buyer and deliver properties for assessment in a fraction of the time current RFPs take.”
