Challenge for hospitality CFOs: how to maximise profits?

(Ho Chi Minh) – TRG Event – 8:00am, 16 April, 2013 at New World Hotel, Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam

“We are operating in an era of unprecedented change”, says Mr. Jerome Destors, Director, Hotel IT, Amadeus

The hospitality market is experiencing fiercer competition as ever. Over a ten-year period, the number of hotels in Vietnam has increased from 2,510 in 1998 to over 11,000 in 2010 (*). Therefore, CFOs and top-level managers in this industry are facing greater challenges and new responsibilities.

In order to maintain a competitive edge, CFOs and top-level managers need every advantage to:

• Drive down costs
• Raise profits
• Grow your business
• Keep guests coming back for more

In other words, hospitality CFOs and top-level managers need the ability to:

• Interact with your potential customers, wherever they are, to influence them at the point of decision
• Forge stronger bonds with your guests and give them a more satisfying experience
• Get the information you need to accurately analyse property-wide and make better decisions
• See trends as they develop, so you can respond with speed and stay ahead of the competition
• Spend more time focusing on what matters for your growth

TRG proudly presents you a complimentary seminar “Office of the CFO for Hospitality: a new way of working to maximise profits”, in which you will have a chance to discuss about your problems and your key responsibilities in the volatile market as well as approach a new way of working to maximise your profits. Topics discussed in the seminar include:

• Financial Management: gain access to critical information in real time and improve visibility into your overall business
• Performance Management: link strategy to operations and performance measures, streamline forecasting, close budgets in three or four days and reduce budgets timeline as much as 40%
• Hospitality Business Process Management: create guest-specific packages or hotel stay experiences, know guest lifetime values at point of interaction, attract more guests, lower reservation costs, increase and optimise revenue by as much as 7%
• Asset Management: track, report, and repair all physical deficiencies before they spoil a guest experience and meet Energy Star standards
