Management Standard Reports

Periodic Scheduled Reports—Standard reports generated on periodic bases. Examples include: Night Audit reports—daily. MTD budget reports—weekly. Variance reports—monthly.

Exception Reports—Produced and distributed when something out of the ordinary occurs. Flash and Pop-up reports are examples.

Demand Reports– Sorted and specialized reports available to managers through database report generators and SQL.

Push Reports– Exception information “pushed” through the network to the workstations of all managers with a need to know. Similar to exception reports but distributed to a more specific group of managers.

Online Analytical Processing (OLAP)

Automated analyses in environments that include data warehouses linked through a DBMS with data mining features.

Consolidation—Chain home offices providing information by property, by city, by region, by district, by nation.

Drill-Down—The opposite of consolidation. The chain home office can identify top producers at specific properties in ranking order and compare them with regional or national performance.

Slicing and Dicing—Breaking information into segments or niches.

Decision Support Systems (DSS)

Statistical software used to perform complex analysis of multiple variables. An example is a yield management program used to compare variables to enhance revenue management.

What-If Analysis—Considers hypothetical scenarios. For instance, what if a disaster occurred in two major cities that immediately stopped business and leisure destination travel?

Sensitivity Analysis—Specialized What-if analysis. For instance, how would different group profiles impact hotel retail sales?

Goal-Seeking Analysis—Referred to as “How-Can” analysis. For example, how can we increase sales by 10% over the same period last year?

Optimization Analysis—Provides templates for decisions to maximize profit or revenues. Again, Yield Management is a perfect example.
