Revenue Management
Context:
The transportation, hotel, and leisure industries have experienced profound changes in user behaviour concerning reservations and purchasing:
- Widespread use of the Internet and the proliferation of distribution channels
- “Last-minute” purchases which have disrupted traditional reservation schedules
- Ever-increasing customization of services with more complex offers and numerous fare classes
- Competition from low-cost operators which erodes margins and reinforces the need to optimize asset performance.
These transformations present significant challenges to Revenue Management departments which much maximize income while harmonizing the management of both capacity and fare classes. Eurodecison helps Revenue Managers make decisions ranging from the very quantitative opportunity analysis phase to the rollout of either “home-grown” or packaged solutions—which are very tightly integrated with enterprise information systems.
