Comprehensive Hotel Purchasing Solutions
The Seva team recognizes that there are a number of choices available to the hospitality operator looking to increase financial performance and guest satisfaction through improved procurement practices. Among these choices, Seva has established itself as a powerful alternative to the hotel procurement solutions that mandate property compliance on products selected using a “greatest good for the greatest number” philosophy. Alternatively, if an operator is simply looking for a cookie-cutter purchasing club or group purchasing organization (GPO) that markets rebates on products that properties may or may not purchase as the primary program value, the comprehensive Seva solution may very well be overkill. While these solutions may work for certain hospitality and lodging segments, the Seva Procurement solution is designed to be both powerful and flexible, meeting the specific needs of the elite hospitality operator. Seva Procurement specializes in supply chain and procurement management for the hospitality and lodging industry, with a niche focus on independent, boutique, luxury and resort hospitality properties. After reviewing Seva’s comprehensive suite of services, we believe you will discover exactly why Seva is the only procurement services organization that will not only lower your product costs, but will also improve product consistency, increase profitability and enhance the guest experience–all while strengthening your unique brand identify.
Powerful and User-friendly e-Procurement & Spend Intelligence Technology
While selecting Seva Procurement is the natural choice for any hospitality operator looking for cutting-edge and powerful technology solutions, Seva believes that technology is only a means to an end that should enable operators and property personnel to create happier guests and improved financial statements. With this in mind, the SevaNet technology platform provides operators with a multi-supplier, web-based order portal, inventory management software, AP systems integration, purchase order approval workflows and spend management reports. In the end, Seva enables operators to gain control over a fragmented purchasing process, communicate efficiently with suppliers, meet financial objectives and analyze past performance.
