Procurement
The role of procurement is key, in hospitality. Procurement has to do with the purchasing of goods and services for hotel. There is a difference between purchasing and procurement:
- Purchasing is focusing on short-term goals: like having a transaction 'right'
- right quality, right quantity, right cost, right time, and right place
- Procurement is focuses on strategic, long-term goals like gaining a competitive advantage or aligning itself with corporate strategy. The process has to do with ordering the goods once vendors have been put in place by the procurement department.
Procurement principles
The procurement system includes responsibilities like:
- defining he sources for materials
- contract negotiation
- payment terms
- life time of specific assets, stock and even services (related to the more economical depreciation).
There is a strong link to having data, so your PMS systems, the strategy of your hotel and procurement: what information do you have? What choices do you make as a company? How do you see your company as part of society in terms of sustainability and responsibility? The Emerald Forest Hotel did not take a position in this, so far. Having a look at ESG would be important for the future.
