DALLAS, TX — Unifocus, a leader in hospitality workforce and operations solutions, today announced Inventory, a new module designed to help hotels easily track reusable items, oversee supplies for preventive maintenance and get clear insight into material costs. Built for both single properties and multi-location brands, Inventory helps hoteliers streamline their operations while ensuring guests receive prompt, high-quality service.

Many hotels lose time and money looking for items or rushing to restock supplies. Spending time locating items, or not having amenities on hand when needed, negatively impacts the guest experience. Inventory is a new tool to help hoteliers track and manage hospitality-specific features—like checking cribs or rollaway beds in and out—so every guest request can be fulfilled quickly and efficiently. It also logs materials used in maintenance, so you know what’s on hand and what needs ordering in advance. Karie Kelly, Chief Product Officer at Unifocus

Inventory centralizes daily operations by offering:

  • Check-In/Check-Out Tracking: Keep tabs on items like rollaway beds, cribs or event equipment, ensuring they’re always ready when requested.
  • Preventive Maintenance Support: Ties needed supplies, such as replacement parts, to upcoming maintenance tasks, so staff can plan ahead and prevent downtime.
  • Consolidated Cost View: Tracks both labor and materials in one place, making it easier to see where budgets stand before making purchasing decisions.
  • Multi-Property Visibility: For brands with several locations, managers can quickly see what’s in stock at each property and share resources as needed.

Early adopters say Inventory is improving communication across departments and speed up service delivery. Using the tool, housekeeping leaders know exactly how many cribs are on hand, engineering teams see which parts they need for upcoming work orders and event managers can reserve equipment for upcoming meetings or conferences.
