Tourism
and Hospitality

The tourism and hospitality industry is highly fragmented, with subsectors such as transport, accommodation, restaurants and catering, personal and niche services which are are all subject to very different challenges and opportunities. Furthermore, it includes diverse and complex geographical subsectors with different challenges in urban, rural, and island destinations. In addition, it now faces new challenges, brought about by the current COVID-19 pandemic.

Digitalization has already brought some significant transformation to this sector from the customer point of view such as online reservation and evaluation platforms. But tourist operators, especially small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), are generally characterised by low levels of digitalization.

However, to remain competitive, all tourist businesses must continue to digitalize processes in the most cost effective way. To address their needs, operators can now benefit from the vast experience of GDi in implementing the latest advances in digital technologies across multiple business sectors. By using GDi Ensemble digital tools, they now have a selection of intuitive, ready to use geo-enabled commercial-off-the-shelf (COTS) products for asset management, property maintenance, and comprehensive workforce/work order management. Implementing Ensemble products not only means having the latest digital tools, but includes comprehensive employee training on all our software, with full partnership and support for your new streamlined and automated business processes.

Industry challenges

Competition

Highly competitive seasonal market easily distorted through new innovations. Appraisal and booking platforms have gained increased market power. Operators must deploy latest digital tools in order to remain in business.

Digital transformation

Sector generally more conservative in implementing new technologies when benefits not immediately evident, and existing systems perceived to be working sufficiently well. Opportunities associated with digitalization thought of in terms of relatively short-term, market-focused advantages.

Financial

Significant concern costs of implementing new digital technologies will not be offset by the gains. Operators have varying levels of access to financial resources and may lack knowledge of opportunities for funding.

Skills and training

Organizations may lack necessary technical resources and digital skills in their workforce. Lack of staff time required for training can present a barrier to digitalization.

Security

All operators, including hotel and resort chains, must guarantee high technical standards and promise reliability. Their digital tools, especially cloud-based must provide the highest level of data security and privacy.

Infrastructure

Geographic location can greatly affect operators access to adequate digital infrastructure. Urban settings may have modern wireless and fibre broadband whereas rural or remote areas may not. High speed broadband costs may present challenges for cloud-based solutions.
