That mandate kicked off a transformation—from reactive and disjointed to strategic and streamlined. 

Megan Eaton, Category Specialist in Procurement, led the charge, turning chaos into control and elevating travel to a program with purpose.

How Maker’s Pride Fixed Its Broken Travel Program

At Makers Pride, travel wasn’t a priority—until it started costing more than just money. 

With teams spread across 28 locations, bookings were inconsistent, service was spotty, and no one really owned the process. It wasn’t broken—but it wasn’t working either. 

When missed connections and rising costs hit a tipping point, leadership realized something had to change. 

That’s when the travel program moved from overlooked to owned—with strategy, visibility, and accountability at the core. 

Read how Makers Pride brought order to the chaos—and found more than just savings.
