Singapore/New South Wales, Australia - Leading hospitality technology solutions provider, FCS, has partnered with Byron at Byron, a Crystalbrook Collection Resort, in Byron Bay to deploy four of its prominent cloud solutions at the property; including its Housekeeping, Guest Services, Call Accounting, and Maintenance solutions.

The Resort, which was acquired in 2019 by independent Australian hospitality company, Crystalbrook Collection, was looking for an integrated technology solution that would equip the Byron at Byron team with the tools needed to achieve a high level of efficiency and productivity to firmly establish its reputation as one of the best destinations in Australia for guest experiences

The luxury rainforest resort features 92 stylish suites and will be re-opening its doors for guest stays on September 1st, 2020 after a short temporary closure due to the unprecedented events resulting from COVID-19.

David Kotze, Director, Hotel Systems at Crystalbrook Collection commented, "We're excited to be teaming up with FCS. Their integrated technology solutions fit seamlessly with our brand and environmental stance for Responsible Luxury. We're looking forward to working together to provide guests with remarkable service, whilst managing Byron at Byron's operations efficiently and sustainably.

Adopting a solution that will support our contactless, paperless and Mindfully Safe approach to travel during these turbulent times is a definite plus!"

Following the successful deployment of FCS Gateway & Voice in other properties in Crystalbrook Collection's portfolio, Byron at Byron selected FCS to streamline its backend operations.

FCS Housekeeping enables the Resort to optimize and coordinate housekeeping and cleaning operations across guest rooms and public areas, while FCS Connect supports the automation and tracking of guest requests, complaints, and internal work orders from assignment to escalation and follow up.

FCS Engineering assists the Resort to manage its preventive maintenance program, engineering service requests, equipment, and supplies. FCS Gateway keeps guests and staff alike connected via the management of the hotel telephone systems.

"We are eager to pave the way for Byron at Byron's transition to a paperless environment, while increasing the turnaround speed of guest rooms & guest requests" shared Kristin Carville, Director of Sales & Channels, Australia, New Zealand, and the Pacific Islands.

"FCS will help Byron at Byron continue to raise the bar on creating operational efficiencies even during this COVID-19 pandemic. Our automated housekeeping and paperless backend processes minimize physical interactions among staff and guests and ensure that every room and public area is cleaned on a regular basis."
