Leveraging the Design-Build Model for Hospitality Profitability
As a specialty contractor for leading hospitality brands, we hear from clients across the board that their primary goal is to ensure the guest experience is not only memorable, but also leaves a lasting impression and keeps guests returning. They must find ways to further generate demand by standing out and continuing to wow guests through the entirety of their experience down to, what may seem to some, even the smallest detail. To cater to the demanding leisure traveler and capitalize on this spending shift, the hospitality industry stands to benefit from taking a closer look at the design-build model. While a one-size-fits-all approach will not work for every owner and operator, since each has a distinct demographic and other factors to consider for their respective properties, financially, the design-build model across the board makes better sense.
Simply put, the design-build model saves time and money. Construction can begin while the design process is being delivered, allowing the operator to do what it does best: maintain continuity while welcoming and impressing the guest through the full experience, without otherwise detracting from the guest’s expectations and the hotel’s bottom line.
