How to check if increased targets are improving productivity this month

Please Share Your Feedback
How Can We Improve This Article?

If you’ve raised productivity targets and want to assess whether they’re leading to improved performance, here are the key steps to take:

Steps to Check:

  1. Review Live Forecasts: Ensure that all Live Forecasts have been revised, saved, and submitted.
    This updates cost drivers and affects productivity calculations across Cockpits.
  2. Analyze Productivity Targets: In the Budget & Forecast module (or directly in Cockpit), compare current productivity targets with historical data.
    Example: If Housekeeping achieved 2.9 rooms/hour last year, is the new target aligned with similar demand?
  3. Use Benchmarking (if available): If your property is part of a chain, use the Benchmarking module to compare productivity with similar properties. Differences in layout, renovation status, or service models may influence results.
  4. Track KPI Targets (if PMI Planning is enabled): If your property uses PMI Planning, you can activate KPI Targets to display productivity and hours targets in Cockpits. This allows daily tracking of actuals vs. targets, forecasts, and prior year results — and highlights if you’re on track.
    • View options include: Hierarchy, KPI List, and Group View
    • These targets can also be configured centrally at the chain level or tailored per property
  5.  Validate RevPOLU Outcomes: Use RevPOLU to confirm whether higher targets are translating into better labor efficiency. If not, targets may need adjusting to remain realistic and effective.
