Zhara HS launched in APAC

Nov. 1, 2010 - PRLog -- Singapore, October 22nd, 2010

Zhara Hospitality Suite (Zhara HS), an innovative hotel management solution by John Keells Computer Services, celebrated its Asia Pacific launch at ITB Asia 2010 held at Suntec City, Singapore. Currently, the resorts and hotel chains that have signed up to use Zhara HS range from Maldives to Thailand.

When designing Zhara HS, JKCS which hitherto worked exclusively in the Global Aviation Industry, has used the sophisticated business models employed by airlines for generating higher yields per passenger. Zhara HS uses these models to create efficiencies in hotel operations, drive down costs and build sustaining sales models.

Zhara HS is 100% Web-based. It provides access to its users from anywhere at any time. Therefore the solution does not require servers or complicated system installation.  It only needs an Internet connection. Zhara HS follows a pay-as-you-earn model where hotels are charged only based on room nights occupied; hence it provides an incentive by relieving customers of high start-up costs and capital expenses.

Zhara HS is ideally suited for independent hotels, resorts, hotel chains and hotel management companies, and can be customized to the diverse needs of those in the leisure and hospitality sector.

A 24/7 support package is offered with Zhara HS to ensure optimum convenience for the customer at all times. It is an innovative tool, which will aid hotels to face the challenges brought on by the dynamic hospitality industry of the future.

Several resorts in South Asia and Thailand are currently using Zhara HS to run their business operations. In order to spread its wings further in the Asian markets where tourism is currently thriving, Zhara HS is launched at ITB Asia.

ITB Asia is one of the largest travel conventions of its kind held for the Asian travel market. It creates a forum for International exhibitors of all sectors of the travel value-chain to meet with top buyers from the MICE, Leisure and Corporate Travel markets.

Zhara HS hopes to expand its horizons in the Asia Pacific region through this opportunity.
