The Leela Palace Bengaluru goes Paperless Saves 3M prints a year and 30 man hours/week

Enhanced Digital Guest experience. No more missing Invoices. Efficient approvals management. Savings in paper prints and increased employee productivity.

OVERVIEW

Missing Documents and manual reconciliation is a pain and time consuming process. Furthermore, when a Guest raises a dispute for any consumption not made at an F&B outlet, our front office staff has to search from piles of invoices received from F&B staff post night audit. In almost all cases, the staff had to write-off any disputes due to time constraints. This impacted bottomline and Guest experience to a significant extent.
