A Revenue Management System or RMS is a software solution that helps you conduct revenue management tasks more efficiently and effectively. It takes data from your hotel and the market (specific competitors or at large) to help you make the most informed decisions that will benefit your property.
Ideally, a well-functioning Revenue Management System uses data and various algorithms to conduct real-time analysis of the demand within the market and determines the best rates at which to sell rooms. As a result, important revenue management decisions can all be carried out from one centralized dashboard.
Revenue Management Systems (RMS) are essential tools for hotels of all sizes, enabling them to stay competitive and maximize profits. It’s due to the system’s ability to conduct complex calculations quickly and offer real-time tracking of the market. This is something that would be impossible to replicate manually.
An RMS adjusts prices across various distribution channels and removes the hustle of having to log into all the accounts separately. As a result, key performance indicators, such as revenue per available room (RevPAR) can be improved, increasing the hotel’s top and bottom lines.
The use of an RMS is vital in smaller hotels because fewer rooms mean more requirements to maximize the revenue of each room. However, it is perhaps even more essential for larger hotels because the overwhelming manual revenue management workload leaves more room for error and poorer decision-making.
When evaluating RMS options, look for the following essential features:
The most crucial feature of a Revenue Management System is its ability to quickly and accurately calculate the ideal room rate using algorithms, while taking into consideration the hotel’s past performance, current market data and trends, as well as other important information. After a system decision is made, room rates can then be easily adjusted. This also changes across all distribution channels once the RMS is updated.
RMS software includes an integrated competitor rates feature, allowing one to easily check room rates for other hotels in the area or other hotels of a similar size. This can also be fully personalized to a hotel's needs. The functionality is crucial in decision-making, as when we have visibility of our competitors’ rates, we can adopt a more strategic approach to our pricing and make sound decisions.
A Revenue Management System stores and provides key performance data, including occupancy rates, revenue per available room (RevPAR), and average daily rates (ADR). Users can see past performance from last month, as well as last year.
Finally, aside from presenting past data and supporting you in making important rate decisions, an RMS will also provide you with forecasted or estimated revenue based on key contributing factors and the current pricing strategy. It will also provide updates if any alterations are made to the strategy.
RMS integrates with the PMS, CRS, CRM, and booking engine with a reliable, two-way connection, so that the systems can share the right data. Choose one that offers accurate forecasting, claims to improve revenue, and helps anticipate demand so hoteliers can change the prices accordingly.
The RMS that you select must be able to have flexible pricing options. This means it should be able to price by room types and channels independently of each other rather than being fixed.
A multi-tenant cloud architecture within the RMS should allow the system to have seamless integration and data sharing. It should also allow developers of the system to conduct real-time updates, instead of having to re-install newer models.
HotelMinder, it is about:
HotelMinder, it is about:
RMS can build, export, and share your most important reports. Therefore, you should look for one that is time-efficient and lets you export and share any report with anyone.
A good RMS presents the data in various visuals – such as tables, graphs, and line charts. Different visuals are helpful to different people and every new view allows a fresh look into the data. You should look for an RMS that comes with this functionality.
When you’re searching for an RMS, think of investing in one that provides complete automation. With the push of a button, all prices should go live and get seamlessly interconnected with your Property management System (PMS), hence all your channels are updated immediately.
A groups module helps team members find the right rate for the groups based on historical data and cost. A good RMS manages the group expectations, such as wash percentage and any updates needed, while seamlessly integrating with the PMS.
Before selecting an RMS, ensure it aligns with your hotel’s size, operational demands, and budget. Key considerations include:
The first thing that you need to ensure when selecting revenue management solutions is that they seamlessly integrate with your hotel's existing tech stack, such as your Property Management System and your Channel Manager.
Next up in the requirements section is the usability of the software. If the RMS you select isn't user-friendly and intuitive, you may have trouble understanding it. This may lead to you not using it as efficiently as required and prevent it from becoming a valuable asset in your daily operations.
Apart from usability, look for hotel revenue management solutions that offer transparent, upfront costs. Also, consider factors such as additional user and integration costs.
Additional features you need to look for in a Hotel RMS are data requirements for accurate predictions, functions to update the rates automatically, and individual channel management for dynamic rate strategies.
Last but not least, you should opt for a hotel revenue management software that comes with exceptional customer support. Quick TAT can help with seamless adaptation and fast resolution of any problems you encounter.
Here are some considerations that you will have to account for when integrating a revenue management system for your hotel:
Training is essential for both beginners and experienced revenue managers. Therefore, you should note that staff training would be required so that they can forecast future demand accurately, implement dynamic pricing structures, and segment the market. In case you opt for an RMS that does it all by itself, you will only need to automate different processes.
Data integration involves monitoring the pricing of competitors, managing different distribution channels, and maintaining rate parity among all channels. Continuous monitoring and adjustment will be necessary for effective revenue management. Please read best practices for data integration in revenue management for more information.
