Vendor & Supply Chain Analysis
Average vendor risk is moderate among hotel room providers. While suppliers’ financial health is benefitting from increasing travel demand, many suppliers are still experiencing heightened risks due to market volatility.
Market share concentration is moderate among suppliers. Brands play a key role in market dynamics, and the top brands collectively garner a significant portion of market revenue. Consequently, these top brands have more pricing power than other companies, and buyers will often have to contend with higher rates from these hotels.
The supply chain for hotel rooms is subject to a moderate level of risk as labor shortages are affecting the market and demand remains volatile.
The United States is a net importer of bedroom furniture, meaning it imports more than it exports. While strong import penetration offers hotels a greater variety of options at a lower cost, it also increases the risk of supply chain disruptions and leads to higher transportation emissions.

Procurement Management KPIs for the Hotel Rooms Market
Managing vendor performance throughout the contract period is easier when tracking specific key performance indicators (KPIs). For example, buyers should monitor Absenteeism rate and Average Resolution Time. Buyers may experience better performance throughout their contracts if they establish service level agreements (SLAs) based on Housekeeping Services and other factors.
| KPI | Level of Importance (1-5) | Measurements | Key Considerations |
|---|---|---|---|
| Absenteeism rate |
|
Number of required employees per day Number of absent employees per day |
If staff is routinely absent, work efficiency and service reliability will decline sharply. Routinely absent employees may also indicate suppliers do not thoroughly vet the character and qualifications of the employees they hire. |
| Average Resolution Time |
|
Total resolution time Number of resolved issues |
The average resolution time represents the average amount of time it takes to resolve an issue that arises. Hotels should be measured on their ability to quickly and effectively resolve issues. |
