How can a Revenue Management System assist your hotel in getting back on track post-pandemic?

The hospitality industry is slowly crawling back from the damages of the pandemic on tourism. This article will tell you how Infor's EzRMS (Revenue Management System) can help your hotel get back on its feet.

Hotels are in the business of selling rooms, but with so many factors to consider, such as occupancy rates, seasonality, and competition, it can be difficult to optimize room pricing and maximize revenue. A revenue management system (RMS) can help hoteliers make better decisions about pricing, inventory, and distribution to drive revenue.

At its core, an RMS is a software system that helps hoteliers set the right room prices at the right time. The system takes into account a variety of data, such as past and current booking patterns, competitors' prices, and demand forecasts, to help hoteliers make informed decisions about pricing and inventory. By using an RMS, hoteliers can:

  • Optimize room prices: By analyzing historical data, an RMS can help hoteliers identify patterns in bookings and demand, and adjust prices accordingly. For example, if an RMS shows that occupancy rates are high on weekends but low during the week, hoteliers can increase prices on weekends and decrease them during the week to maximize revenue.

  • Improve occupancy rates: An RMS can also help hoteliers improve occupancy rates by providing insights into demand patterns and forecasting future trends. By understanding when demand is likely to be high or low, hoteliers can adjust room prices and inventory accordingly to ensure that rooms are always available to guests who are willing to pay more for them.

  • Stay competitive: An RMS can also provide hoteliers with information about competitors' prices and promotions, which can help them stay competitive in the market. By knowing what other hotels in the area are charging for rooms, hoteliers can adjust their own prices and promotions to attract more guests.

  • Streamline Operations: RMS can automate and streamline pricing and inventory management processes, enabling hoteliers to focus on other aspects of their business, like customer service and marketing. By giving hoteliers more time to focus on these areas, an RMS can help them build stronger relationships with guests and attract new business.

In conclusion, revenue management system is a crucial tool for hotels of all sizes. It allows hoteliers to make data-driven decisions about pricing, inventory, and distribution to drive revenue, improve occupancy rates, stay competitive, and streamline operations. Implementing an RMS can be a significant investment, but the long-term benefits it provides will easily justify the cost.
