Challenge:

The hotel chain was struggling to keep pace with the rapidly evolving technological landscape of the hospitality industry. They faced challenges in:

  • System integration: Their existing technology stack consisted of disconnected systems, hindering data flow and creating operational inefficiencies.
  • Cloud migration: The on-premise infrastructure was expensive to maintain and limited scalability to meet growing demands.
  • Tech integration challenges: Integrating new technologies with legacy systems proved difficult, hindering innovation and guest experience improvements.
  • Automation limitations: Manual processes for tasks like reservation management and guest communication were time-consuming and prone to errors.
  • Call center inefficiencies: The call center lacked efficient tools and processes, leading to longer wait times and frustrated guests.
