By adopting the practice of joint procurement contracts across three properties in Goa, AccorHotels reduced its purchase costs by 57% as compared to last year
While AccorHotels in India follows the policy of unitlevel procurement, since 2017, Novotel Goa Shrem Hotel, Novotel Goa Resort & Spa and Ibis Styles Calangute decided to do things a little differently. They opted for joint procurement and the benefits are already evident.
Buying for a triumvirate of hotels has helped Pradeep Desai, purchase manager for Novotel Goa Resorts & Spa & Novotel Goa Shrem Hotel along with ibis Styles Goa Calangute, negotiate for, and get better volumes at lower rates. It could also reduce the cost of food products by 57% as compared to the previous year. Additionally, due to higher business volumes, the product delivery is also far more frequent.
