"While the industry rushes to take even more decision making out of the hotels, glh is moving to put even more back in, giving autonomy to our individual hotels, and a key part of this is revenue management and clear, deep insight into the most lucrative contracts for that property," said Lynn Connon, Head of Pricing, Revenue Management Systems & Process, glh. "Infor EzRMS is a key part of this strategy."
