Restaurants, Hotels and Hospitality

Hospitality operations and hotel/restaurant/guest services purchasing departments are tasked with reducing costs while supporting daily operations to ensure a high level of guest satisfaction.

Implementing a strategic sourcing initiative for operating supplies and equipment into a hotel’s purchasing process allows hotel purchasing managers to expand their budget while building strategic, long-term relationships with suppliers that ensure consistent quality and availability of OS&E products and services needed to run daily hotel operations. With a focus on supplier alliances, hotel purchasing groups will be able to expand beyond a tactical role in procuring hospitality supplies to acting as strategic members of a hotel’s organization.
