Maximizing revenue has never been more important. Due to the volatility of the market and the increasing demands of the guests, the RMS has become a necessity for the hotel industry. MMR Hotels, which has been providing revenue management services for more than 400 hotels in India, uses effective revenue management system technologies to achieve the highest levels of profitability and guest satisfaction.
What Is a Revenue Management System?
A revenue management system is a highly advanced computer application that is used to assist hotels in the management of their pricing policies. The RMS is a tool that helps to make the right pricing and inventory decisions based on the analysis of market trends, booking patterns, competitors’ prices, and guests’ preferences. This helps hotels to achieve the highest levels of revenue without compromising on the quality of services being offered to guests.
At MMR Hotels, the RMS combines data science, predictive analytics, and human capital, which makes it a strong platform that offers customized solutions for each property.
Why is the RMS Essential?
1. Flexible Pricing for Optimal Revenue
RMS algorithms are used to control room rates by changing them according to the market demand, time of the year, and competitors’ prices. ADR, which stands for Average Daily Rate and represents revenue per room, and RevPAR, which combines the price and occupancy, will help hotels maintain their financial stability.
2. Improved Profitability with GOPPAR
MMR’s RMS is more advanced than the conventional RevPAR as it targets Gross Operating Profit Per Available Room (GOPPAR) that considers all costs. This makes it possible to have a broad perspective of a hotel’s financial position.
3. Avoiding Overbooking or Underbooking
Effective inventory management reduces mistakes such as overbooking during the high-demand season or underbooking during the low-demand season.
The Technology Behind MMR’s Revenue Management System
MMR Hotels implements advanced tools and algorithms, including:
- Machine Learning and Predictive Analytics: Machine Learning and Predictive Analytics are two of the most sophisticated technological tools that can be used to analyze past data and trends. By doing so, they are able to predict the demand patterns for a business or industry in question. These tools employ complex mathematical models to analyze patterns and trends in large datasets, which can be useful in decision-making.
- Real-Time Monitoring: Real-time monitoring is a crucial aspect of modern systems that allows for the continuous tracking of various parameters. In the context of businesses, real-time monitoring systems can track changes in factors such as occupancy rates, guest preferences, and competitor pricing. This up-to-the-minute data lets businesses make instantaneous adjustments and strategic decisions based on the most current information available.
- Integration with OTAs: Integration with Online Travel Agencies (OTAs) is a vital component for businesses operating within the hospitality and travel industry. By establishing easy connections with OTAs, businesses can make sure that their pricing strategies are effective across all booking platforms. This integration allows for a wider reach of potential customers and increased visibility within the competitive online marketplace.
The RMS also provides Business Intelligence (BI) dashboards, offering hoteliers a complete view of performance metrics and actionable insights.
