Renovation is a necessary project that hotels must undertake every few years. While the result can positively affect the guest experience, renovation can cost you time, money, and labor that you would rather dedicate elsewhere.  

In 2023, Andy Vanmali, President and CEO of Three Springs Hospitality, was about to undergo a major renovation on the Holiday Inn Express in Bowling Green, KY. He decided to reach out to IHG Global Procurement to find out what services we offered that could help make this process easier, which is how he learned about our Hotel Purchasing Services (HPS).  

HPS combines highly experienced purchasing and logistic providers in the hospitality industry with the support of the IHG Global Procurement team into a single solution. It offers hotels specialized strategies and centralized pricing on furniture, fixtures, and equipment (FF&E) through the services of an approved purchasing agent to help deliver faster and more cost-effective openings, conversions, and renovations.  

By using these services, hotels get complete transparency into the process. Our purchasing agents use IHG approved suppliers to ensure brand standard compliance and access to our contracted pricing. They also offer budget guidance, real-time project tracking and reporting, support for payments to suppliers, and even alternate solutions if supply chain issues arise.  

This gives owners the freedom to focus on the big picture as they work with a trusted partner that keeps an eye on everything, from design to delivery.
