Putting IT before paint.
Lessons in hospitality technology implementation.
By Bill Lally
In a time when most of the world can't go more than a few minutes without checking email, responding to texts or checking Facebook, it's obvious that our reliance on technology has become a critical factor in the operation of any business.
Integrators are tasked with implementing these important technologies, but a lot more than you may think gets put into these systems in a business or hotel.
And unfortunately, as paint, décor and architecture are considered early on in the design process, technology is often left on the backburner and on near-impossible timelines.
Not only do integrators customize systems for each of their clients' technological needs, we do so while navigating the uncharted courses of new technology. Technology that when originally designed, was state-of-the-art, and becomes antiquated two years into a typical construction project.
So what's the answer? Based on the experience installing these systems, we found time and education to be the start. The construction industry, through no fault of its own, has done many things the same way for generations. While technology has aided in the advancement of better materials, and systems like CAD and BIM have taken the design and engineering of buildings to a new level. When it comes to actually building, it still takes armies of manpower to get it done.
What we have learned working through some maddening schedules over the past several years is that while the construction schedule is guaranteed to slip, the owner still expects their project to be turned over on time. The saying "time is money" applies better than ever, when construction delays keeping a hotel from generating room revenue will always impact the bottom line.
So what's the result? The time that was originally allocated for the proper commissioning of the technology systems gets compressed to near impossibility. But a fully-functioning building is still expected the minute the CO is issued; anything less is seen as complete failure. The reality is, wet paint or a spot on the carpet isn't the end of the world, but if the WiFi doesn't work there's instant panic. Setting up technology takes time to make sure that entertainment, lighting, and HVAC systems are working properly, yet the setup and time allocated for the network and other technology is almost always an afterthought.
