One powerful approach that has been gaining momentum is "Zero-Based Budgeting" (ZBB). For years, this method has revolutionized how hotels allocate resources, promoting efficiency, agility, and smart decision-making. In this blog, we'll dive into the concept of Zero-Based Budgeting and how it can reshape the financial landscape of hotels. 
With Fairmas hotel planning and analysis software, hoteliers gain access to powerful budgeting and forecasting tools tailored specifically for the hospitality industry. Say goodbye to guesswork and welcome data-driven insights that will empower you to make well-informed decisions, optimize your resources, and achieve your financial goals.
As an owner, investor, or asset manager in the hospitality industry, it is of utmost importance to make well-informed decisions based on data. You cannot make decisions based on assumptions or estimates alone. A small error in data can be a make-or-break point for your business.
In the wake of the global pandemic and its impact on the hospitality industry, financial planning and revenue management have become crucial for the survival of hotels. The uncertainty of when travel restrictions will be lifted and when travelers will return has made it necessary for hotels to plan for multiple scenarios.
FairPayroll, a software solution by Fairmas, enables accurate planning of all relevant costs per employee and per department that result in precise analyses for all management levels. This means that you can freely plan relevant costs per employee even if they work in more than one department.
Niels Schröder, the Managing Director of Fairmas GmbH, started his career in the hospitality industry at a very young age.

As the new year comes around in full swing and everyone makes plans of introspection, change and creating a better, more up-to-date version of themselves, Fairmas has its own set of milestones that were achieved in 2021 and goals to look forward to in 2022.
Every year, the hospitality industry learns and adapts to new trends. How customers interact with the hospitality industry creates room for further growth. As globalization increases, and traveling becomes more affordable, the hospitality industry sees a growing influx of customers. In order to succeed, it is important to not only adapt to the new trends, but also be aware of what the future may hold.
The Long-Range Planner integrated in FairPlanner enables easy multi-year planning based on flexibly selectable scenarios such as budget, forecast or what-if. Planning takes place in the hotel's own profit and loss statement and simplifies the strategic financial and profitability forecast for the next 10 years.
To meet the challenging demands of the controlling and steering function, head offices of large hotel companies must be able to access all revenues, costs, and relevant hotel key figures quickly and easily. The level of detail of the analysis should be flexibly adjustable so in the event of deviations from targets, it is easy to switch from the group, country, or cluster level to the hotel level.
A forecast is a prognosis of future developments. When it comes to predicting hotel demand, we can never really say that we know exactly what will happen, but rather what is highly likely to happen. The forecast quantifies the uncertainty of the future.
The crisis has shown that in turbulent times and in a highly dynamic market, close monitoring of hotel performance by doing a rolling forecast is crucial. The introduction of FairPlanner as a financial planning tool simplifies the entire forecasting and budgeting process. The rolling forecast feature enables regular performance analysis of the entire hotel business with a focus on profit.
Everyone is affected by today’s global pandemic situation, and the hospitality industry is one of the hard-hit industries. However, there is one truth: There will eventually be an end to all of this and businesses will resume its normal operations, whatever that new normal may be.
