PMI Into Hotel Training

– Our dream and vision is that PMI will be a standard, not only at Norwegian hotels, but in the hotel industry in general, “said Nguyen Ngoc Young of d2o.

The PMI system has been heavily involved in the Norwegian hotel industry for several years. The company, d2o, has about 60% of the Norwegian market.

University to Use PMI for Professional Management Course

Tourism Management students at the University College of Finnmark (HiF) are to learn using PMI, a “super tool” for those who manage a hotel. The education shall be carried out in collaboration with the Rica Hotels group. PMI is a computer tool that keeps track of “everything” relating to hotel operations.

“At my colleague’s hotel, I became interested in those red, yellow and green “lamps” on his PC, next to the organisation chart. When he explained that the symbols indicated the actual departmental performance – red = below target and green = on or above target as well as the fact that it warns when a department is not up to date. I understood right away that this tool will be very useful for us.

Additional to the efficiency management tool, it provides a great revenue and activity forecasting instrument. The financial benefits make the payback time on investment very short. We will not be without PMI.”
