Problem

As the IT Manager at Planter's Lodge in Takoradi, Ghana, I was responsible for managing various systems including the Property Management System, Video Surveillance System, WiFi Hotspot, and Accounting System. However, these systems were outdated and not integrated with each other. This led to inefficiencies in operations and made it difficult to provide a seamless experience for guests.

Solution

We decided to implement a new Hospitality Management System that would integrate all of our existing systems into one platform. We chose a cloud-based solution that could be accessed from anywhere and provided real-time data on guest bookings, room availability, and financials. The new system also included features such as online booking and payment processing, which improved the guest experience.

Impact

Increased efficiency by X%
Improved guest experience through online booking and payment processing
Real-time data on financials allowed for better decision making
Reduced errors in accounting processes
