Unlike real estate developers who fetch money from investors to finance their project, hotel builders bear the entire investment by themselves till the hotel is operational where amount is generally paid through individual equity/financial syndication. Thus, it becomes necessary to deliver the project in optimum cost & right time with quality in order to prevent hotel developers from paying huge interest on the loan and experiencing heavy loss (due to delay in revenue generation process).

Need of the hour is a technically sound project management consultant like Khar Consultancy Services (KCS) that handholds clients from start till operational level including pre-opening as per brand standards (especially the five star hotels). “We offer solutions to the problems faced by different agencies /vendors and people (architect, interior, MNPA, and kitchen people) to follow them at site itself with one organization handling everything till the completion of the project.

Always Ahead
“There have been big PMC organizations; people have used & trusted them but they fail due to the scarcity of competent team sthat don’t possess much knowledge of hotel industry and has the capability to manage high-end hotels. Moreover, they follow international methodologies and are unaware of Indian condition, which doesn’t fit our unorganized sector of labour, material supply and others. These all factors hit the quality as well as delivery time of projects,” avers Khar. Being well-aware of all PMC parameters, and placing every integral onto the system & allotting work as per schedule helps the firm to commence the execution of projects on the committed date and complete them on/before time.
