Six hotel management system at home and abroad
In the early 80, the development of the domestic hotel management system, fully absorbed the essence of foreign management system, combined with the actual situation in the country, gradually developed into mature, the early 90 has formed a number of mature software systems, at the same time, the production of several full-time engaged in the hotel industry Computer Management System Company. By the middle and late 90, with the popularization of the computer in the hotel application, the continuous development of computer technology, the hotel management system has developed into a new period, the new system platform, new system features and development direction of the emerging, mainly reflected in the system basically go to the client/server mode of Windows version, The function is more detailed and perfect, the system is more stable and reliable. "For software developers, small software vendors are phasing out," says one industry insider. To the user, the domestic big system slowly enters the five-star hotel market, but formerly was basically monopolized by the foreign system. ”
From the national market distribution point of view, east China's Shanghai, Zhejiang, Jiangsu, Shandong, central China's Hunan, Hubei, south China's Guangdong, north China, Beijing and other provinces and cities, computer penetration and application level is relatively high, but relatively market base is better. New hotels and some old hotels have not yet used Computer Management, many old hotels for various reasons need to update the computer system, in general, although the market is not as fast as the previous years, but there is still a lot of potential to dig.
Technology to the broad prospects, put on the market review, technology to the industry's push seems to be less comfortable. The application of science and technology in the practice of production, a fact can not be ignored: technology, market, concept, human-machine relationship of many factors will become a smooth use of technology, which directly manifests the development-application contradictions, demand-supply contradictions. Rather than hotels requiring it to provide technology, they need a new management model. At present, some hotels in the application of hotel management system still stay in the ' bookkeeping ', far from rising to its management model changes. Industry insiders think: "Hotel management software is definitely not ' accounting type ', but ' management-type ', and is to provide scientific means of decision-making, the key point is to let the hotel both open source and can throttle. "If the hotel does not break through the management mode, the management system can only become the hotel's" high price equipment ", and the breakthrough of the management mode is the breakthrough of the hotel decision-making concept. In the concept of a major breakthrough in the face of the current mixed it market, the hotel will choose its good people.
Hotel management system has a broad market prospects, profitable returns. But in fact, the hotel industry itself has entered the era of meager profit and even loss, coupled with fierce market competition, software developers of a single project profit is not as good as before, resulting in some of the weak developers were eliminated. Hotels using the system, because of the loss of the original developer's technical support, also had to change the software system, resulting in investment waste. On the one hand, the whole industry does not have a self-regulatory body, the state does not have a certain assessment mechanism and the corresponding hierarchical system, so that some fundamental unconditional company can enter the market to participate in competition. On the other hand, the hotel industry's investment in various, the importance of the software is not enough, or mistakenly selected developers, or abnormal prices, resulting in the hotel and the formal software business both sides are damaged interests. Of course, the hotel industry involved in information systems and products are numerous, but lack of uniform industry standards to make each supplier coordination, on the one hand, the waste of resources and incompatible, on the other hand, also hindered the overall level of improvement, can not fully meet the needs of the hotel.
In the technology development and hotel demand, the hotel it existing demand-supply contradictions:
One: technical function and hotel demand dislocation. The current management software system has not been able to effectively solve the hotel's current key problems-sales and cost control. Now the hotel management software is used for internal operation and management, the main demand point is to improve efficiency, not to mention direct cost reduction. To a certain extent, after the hotel uses the computer, the labor cost may not reduce, may even increase. After the use of computers, only the management of the degree of quantification, data flow speed. The hotel's immediate paradox, however, is that, in an industry slump, the proportion of input and output benefits is always weighed. In China's hotel industry is still in a relatively difficult stage, increasing expenditure is particularly important, directly to the market's technical requirements increasingly prominent, and the hotel directly facing the market sales means still stay in visit, telephone, fax and other traditional forms. The existing software can not directly help reduce income and expenditure, this is the current gap between technology and demand. A software developer issued such a sigh: "At present, no good hotel software can make the hotel has the characteristics of business, the guests have a direct impact." For example, the CRM (Customer relationship Management) concept that has been used in other industries has not been fully applied in the hotel industry. "This is one of the main reasons hotels don't want to invest more in it."
Second: Technology and service subject dislocation. The current hotel it is not directly to customer service, but only assistant management of the "behind-the-scenes hero."
The successful model of the IT application of foreign Hotel group is as follows: Marriott as a part of the Enterprise strategy Revenue Management system, through automatic identification, mining the single guest's consumption potential, increase the overall income.
Calson's global reservation system is the most efficient and scalable booking system in the industry, and it also implements a comprehensive customer satisfaction program through an online database. Courtyard's intranet reduces the cost of supplies and labor by electronically publishing all of its internal manuals and printing materials. Ritz-carlton set up a full-time to provide residents with it technical support services. The online booking system provided by Radisson for travel agencies returns to the travel agency based on the number of rooms booked. Impac a touch screen device in each hotel lobby to conduct customer satisfaction surveys. Promus through computerized performance pay system, enhance staff morale, reduce service errors.
Overall, the domestic hotel IT technology development Status quo is: 1, the demand is not clear, so that the hotel project engineering strong, inadequate production, developers of the overall cost of high, research and development lack of motivation. 2, there is no industry uniform standards, manufacturers fragmented, market differentiation led to the difficulty of product integration. 3, product promotion relies on administrative means and network, inhibit the introduction of new technology and technological innovation, not conducive to the formation of their own product characteristics and quality control.
4, foreign excellent brand of Low-cost entry, monopolized the domestic high star market, developers profit space decline.
The meaning of the seven topics:
In the 21st century today, customer demand-oriented, innovative, realistic and pragmatic, continuous learning, the pursuit of excellence "business philosophy, for the vast number of small and medium-sized enterprises to provide a strong guarantee of business management. Go all out to provide customers with satisfactory products and services, and work together for the rapid development of information industry as a greater contribution.
