While the basic concept of hotel revenue management has been around for several decades in some shape or form, the discipline and practice have grown and matured dramatically in recent years. Hospitality Revenue Management has evolved from being a promising idea for increasing hotel occupancy rates to becoming a strategic imperative for maximizing hotel revenue across all parts of the organization.

What are the key concepts to keep in mind when researching Hospitality Revenue Management solution providers and consultant services? What buying considerations and evaluation criteria should influence the purchase decision? How can hotels maximize the value of the investment? Written by industry experts, and steeped in survey-based research data, The 2015 Smart Decision Guide to Hospitality Revenue Management addresses these and many other questions, helping prospective buyers make the right decisions.

The Smart Decision Guide explores the specific features and functionality of next-generation Hospitality Revenue Management solutions. These include advanced capabilities around pricing management, data processing and technology integration. It also explores the benefits of consulting services with expertise in such areas as demand forecasting and price optimization.

The research is based on data collected from 119 qualified survey respondents across different geographies, different types of lodging properties and different levels of the organization. The content was independently produced, providing for unbiased, fact-based information. The underwriters include the following industry leaders: Duetto, IDeaS (a SAS company), Infor, Rainmaker and RateGain.
