Reporting

For this, you need a consolidated database – an essential prerequisite. Before any hotel shopping takes place, you should be able to answer the following questions:

• What are your annual expenses for hotel accommodation?
• How many employees travel regularly for your company and require overnight stays?
• What are the most visited destinations?
• Is your accommodation volume sufficient in these destinations in order to negotiate price reduction deals?1)
• Does your company already have corporate rates negotiated with any individual hotels or hotel chains?
• How are these corporate rates used?
• Has your company negotiated corporate rates with more than 10 hotels or hotel chains in any one location?2)

1) Note: As a rule, in the case of less than 50 overnights per year, you will be unable to secure any significant discount/advantage from hotels. The time and effort required for negotiations is not worth it in this case.
2) Note: We recommend a maximum of 5 hotels per city.

Approximately 60% of all companies in Germany and an even higher number of global companies cannot give detailed answers to these questions. Numerous business studies by various industry associations and institutions have repeatedly highlighted these deficits.

This is where we can help: Using ehotel’s Business Reporting Tool, you will have all the relevant figures at your fingertips that you will need to answer the above questions.
From this, you can make a targeted, volume-based hotel purchase. As an additional service, experts from ehotel can of course take on this task for you.
