Challenge

The management of Aryan Eco Resort faced several challenges:

1.

Complex Service Coordination

With multiple offerings like accommodation, activities, dining, and event hosting, coordinating these diverse services manually led to frequent miscommunications and scheduling conflicts. Without a centralized system, keeping track of bookings, activity reservations, and staff assignments became overwhelming, especially during peak seasons.

2.

Inefficient Activity Scheduling

Tracking activity reservations for facilities like the swimming pool, boating, and adventure sports was challenging, especially during peak seasons.

3.

Guest Data and Personalization Gaps

Personalizing guest experiences, such as tracking preferences for dining or activities, was challenging without a centralized customer data repository. Manual tracking of preferences and feedback was not feasible at scale, resulting in missed opportunities to provide personalized service and build long-term guest loyalty.

4.

Inventory and Supply Management

Aryan Eco Resort’s inventory needs ranged from adventure equipment to dining ingredients and eco-friendly amenities. Manual inventory tracking led to stockouts and overstocking, affecting both guest experience and budget. Supplies often ran out unexpectedly, especially during events or busy weekends, leading to service interruptions.

5.

Staff Allocation and Payroll Challenges

With multiple services requiring specific staff expertise, assigning the right personnel to the right service area was time-consuming. The lack of an automated system also complicated payroll, benefits management, and attendance tracking, resulting in inefficiencies and affecting staff morale.

6.

Quality Control for Eco-Friendly Products

As an eco-resort, Aryan takes pride in using sustainable products, including in-house manufactured items like toiletries and cleaning supplies. However, maintaining quality and ensuring these items met eco-friendly standards was challenging without a proper tracking system, resulting in inconsistent quality and impacting the resort’s sustainability goals.
