Intelligent Hospitality is proud to announce that they have completed the roll-out of their award-winning analytics platform, HotelIQ Business Intelligence, across all properties in Emaar Hospitality Group's portfolio. Emaar Hospitality will be leveraging the full suite of HotelIQ's capabilities including Analytical Dashboards and Reporting, Forecasting and Budgeting, and Master Data Management.

Emaar Hospitality Group, being extremely data-driven, will have access to interactive visual dashboards coupled with predictive analytics, and viewership of the entire hotel portfolio of hotels at a glance which helps identifying areas that require immediate attention as well as conducting numerous analysis to the most granular details identifying threats and opportunities - all from within the HotelIQ portal.

Apo Demirtas, Intelligent Hospitality's CEO, expressed his gratitude. "Emaar Hospitality Group is one of the leading hospitality companies in the Middle East with award-winning brands like Address Hotels + Resorts, Palace Hotels and Resorts and Vida Hotels and Resorts. Their progressive leadership in this case is another indicator of how they got here and will continue to grow."

Demirtas further stated that, given the impact of the pandemic, the hotel industry needs lagging and leading analytical support more than ever before. "We are living through an unprecedented period. In such a situation, traditional price optimization (revenue management) algorithms simply won't cut it. Hotels will need to liberate their intellectual capital from producing reports all day to consuming intelligence via HotelIQ. That way, they'll be able to make timely and strategic decisions. It's no longer a nice-to-have but a necessity. Companies like Emaar Hospitality Group are already prepared, others should follow their lead."
