Financial management is a particular challenge for independent hoteliers, both in China and worldwide. Developed exclusively by Interstate, the Business Intelligence system is renowned for delivering accurate real-time financial data for hotel owners and operators. At any time of the day or night, Business Intelligence generates daily and monthly reporting of room and food and beverage sales and revenue, and compares performance with monthly and yearly forecasts and budgets. By using Business Intelligence, owners, hotel managers and operations and sales teams can quickly analyze key metrics resulting in intelligent, timely business decisions.
Pre-opening services are also highly coveted across the hotel industry. A dedicated Interstate China team provides assistance to owners on the development of new hotels and renovations or brand conversions of existing hotels. The company offers hotel planning, construction and design consulting services, and can serve as a liaison between owners and contractors.
