This year’s HITEC event in Dallas Texas is an exciting opportunity to meet with hospitality industry leaders to discuss how technology for hotels will help organizations meet new challenges. If you plan to attend this year’s event too, we look forward to connecting with you. Whether you’ll be at HITEC 2021 in person or not, the best way to connect with Infor is to book a meeting with us here.

In the meantime, here are some of the hospitality technology trends and topics we expect will be top of mind as we meet with fellow attendees and industry leaders at HITEC this year.

The power of cloud technology

The cloud is changing the way that hotels do business. Above-location solutions in the cloud connect all company properties into a single environment supported by a provider. That allows each location to focus on their central mission – creating consistently superior guest experiences.

Cloud technology providers like Infor help hotels, resorts, and casinos to create the stable and adaptive platforms to help meet both present and future challenges alike. We’re looking forward to creating new partnerships as the industry moves forward.

A modern and integrated hotel property management system

A scalable and end-to-end cloud-based technology platform allows hospitality organizations the potential to thrive in any era. A modern hotel property management system is the vital hub to achieve that goal.

A hotel PMS must create flexibility, ease of use, be secure, and provide a mobile friendly journey to allow the guest greater control over their experience. We’re excited to talk to industry leaders about how our technology can help accomplish that.

The essential role of science-based hospitality revenue management

Accurate collection and analysis of business data and quick adjustments to determine revenue planning and forecasting have more and more impact on a hotel business’ competitive edge. This is true more than ever before.

Intelligent revenue management must be a priority. We’ll be talking about how science-based RM will help hotels across the spectrum make the most of their data to optimize their results.

Robust solutions to empower hospitality industry employees

Hospitality employees are the lifeblood of the industry at all levels. Putting the right solutions in their hands is paramount to empowering them, retaining them, and meeting business objectives at the same time.

This includes robust sales & catering and hotel restaurant POS platforms that connect with PMS. But it also includes financials solutions and other business operations applications to help empower staff to do their best work whether they’re in locations or at head office.

A chance to connect

Infor’s hospitality technology team looks forward to HITEC every year. It’s a chance to connect with our peers, global team members, and with new faces as we strive to serve our customers better every day.

Hospitality technology should always match the evolving landscape of the industry. HITEC is everyone’s chance to keep our fingers on the pulse.
