THE DECISION TO MAKE
Can reporting and verification effort fall while preserving seasonal and plan differences?
Choose one management report or staff-facing knowledge scope in one property.
A PoC should produce evidence for the next investment decision. Business owners, data owners and users agree on normal tasks and exceptions, rather than treating a working screen as proof of value.
INDUSTRY-SPECIFIC TESTS
Include the conditions that matter.
Seasonal information
Change effective dates and check for stale guidance.
Staff evaluation
Use real task patterns to review evidence and handoff.
BASELINE & ACCEPTANCE
Choose measures for the selected topic.
Hotel revenue and booking analytics
| Candidate measure | Method |
|---|---|
| Occupancy | Sold room nights divided by agreed available room nights |
| ADR | Room revenue divided by sold room nights with fixed package allocation |
| Channel contribution | Subtract available fees and identify unallocated costs |
Guest enquiries and staff knowledge AI
| Candidate measure | Method |
|---|---|
| Source agreement | Answers supported by current property information |
| Handoff quality | Appropriate escalation for individual decisions |
| Staff review time | Time to find sources and correct drafts |
Set targets from your own baseline. Hold evaluation evidence separate from tuning and fix the assessment period and scope. Record failures, abstentions and untested conditions alongside successes.
GO / REVISE / STOP
A decision to stop is useful evidence.
Resolve revenue definitions with finance first. Keep assistance staff-only while incorrect property guidance remains.
Proceed to build
Core criteria pass, with owners, interfaces and remaining issues understood.
Validate further
There is a promising signal but insufficient coverage; define a bounded follow-up.
Choose another approach
Value does not exceed the baseline; compare data cleanup or improvements to existing tools.
A defined engagement and usable deliverables.
The PoC scope defines the workflow, source material, environment, evaluation and prototype/report deliverables. Production development is a separate decision.
- Workflow and data definitions with assumptions
- Reproducible prototype, evaluation and exceptions
- Evidence for implementation, further testing or stopping
QUESTIONS BEFORE YOU START
Questions before starting
Must we replace the PMS?
No. Evaluate existing exports and integration options; scheduled CSV can support reporting.
Can enquiries be multilingual?
Choose languages and questions for evaluation, with reviewed property-specific source material in each language.
