Virtual Hotel Systems Releases Management Software for Small to Medium Sized Properties
Virtual Hotel Systems announces the release of new web based software aimed squarely at the limited service hotel market in the US & Canada.
Austin, TX, October 12, 2007 --(PR.com)-- Virtual Hotel Systems announces the release of new web based software aimed squarely at the limited service hotel market in the US & Canada. VHS offers a quantum leap forward for individual and small hoteliers by merging operational and sales tools into a web based application that includes industry benchmark reports and the ability to generate automated reports to a custom distribution list.
"We've been working with owners for the last five years who want to know the vital stats for their hotel and can't get them in a timely, convenient manner", says Andrew Boardman, Senior Vice President of VHS. "We've combined key elements of a hotel's success into a package that allows upper management and ownership to monitor and control their major costs such as labor, sales activity and daily numbers at a single property or across their entire portfolio", Boardman adds.
The VHS package is based on proven hotel management tools for sales such as a powerful contact manager, sales contract generator tailored to the property, automatic traces to assure proper follow up, email tracking, productivity measures and overall accountability. The goal is to provide enhanced efficiency so the manager can cover more ground in a single day while improving their ability to communicate their progress to GM's and ownership. "Generally, managers and owners don't really know enough of what goes into their property's sales effort or its relative success. We can now provide detailed information to all the key players, wherever they are," says Tod Peddie, Regional Director of Sales for VHS.
On the operations side, VHS enhances the owner's ability to monitor a single property or a large portfolio from a single source. "Our labor management tool allows management and owners alike the ability to control and monitor their labor cost on a daily basis by department and sets benchmark goals to assure control over this prime cost", Peddie adds. Daily Flash reporting provides up to date stats on a single hotel or custom reports that can offer an ownership group a current picture of their entire portfolio, across multiple brands.
The Forecast tool is the basis of the yield management strategy. "Most property management systems provide this function but they generally use last years data that is usually dated and does not reflect current market conditions" Boardman continues. "Our software includes what is on the books, trends from the last 60 days, special events, groups and the experience of those on site. It's more intuitive and gives the team a better platform on which to make decisions about rate and restrictions", he adds.
Virtual Hotel Systems is a Texas based company and was founded by hotel and software professionals whose goal is to provide a platform that allows for the smooth flow of vital sales and operational information to the management and ownership of limited service properties across all brands and allows owners to minimize unnecessary expense and maximize revenue leading to increased RevPar performance and ROI. Inquires may be directed to VHS at sales@virtualhotelsystems.com or Andrew Boardman, Vice President of Sales, 210-313-9492.
