Present technology can save Government huge sums of money. Take the average day to day travel by one State Employee. It is estimated that a two day trip can cost over $650.00 when you total the cost of a hotel at $100.00 per night, $100.00 for meals ($50.00/per day) and employee downtime of $270.00 ($135.00/per day) and gasoline at $100.00 for a roundtrip in a state vehicle. Imagine a thousand or more trips per year. Obviously, the typical two day travel has become cost prohibitive.
