In the world of information technology (IT), the green movement is taking shape. There are numerous opportunities for IT professionals to take leadership roles in helping their organizations to adopt sustainable practices. Technology is a tool to provide solutions, but regrettably, technology can also be a source of the problem due to factors like energy consumption and the environmental impacts when disposing of obsolete or broken technology (i.e., e-waste). Therefore, we will need to look at situations and technology usage via multiple lenses to try to assess the net impact to determine if the outcomes are truly desirable and positive versus negative. This often requires asking tough questions and looking for possible unintended consequences before decisions are being made

Like any business initiative, green IT projects will require strong commitment from an organization’s top management and investment in time and resources at all levels.

In order for tourism to prosper, we cannot afford to let our environment erode.

The biggest threat to network security at the hotel property level isn’t a lack of technology – it is the lack of resources to manage it.  A strong network security solution should combine cloud-based security configuration with plug and play installation of a firewall and IPS appliances.

The impact of a mass security approach is significant to hotel network operations. It could eliminate the need for on-site IT resources to configure and deploy security appliances. It could also provide much-needed network visibility across an entire portfolio of properties. Lastly, it would be instrumental in expediting large-scale security deployments and updates.

The challenge is that many hotels lack the IT resources to adequately stay on top of security.

To create a global resource for the hospitality finance industry, Hospitality Financial and Technology Professionals (HFTP®) has begun development on a global hospitality accounting system users guide.

HCM The systems that fall under the human capital management (HCM) category are aimed at recruiting and retaining employees throughout their life cycle. They can include anything from recruitment and onboarding tools to salary planning, budgeting, goal-setting, and performance assessment. These tools assist the HR team in guiding employees toward success.

HRMS Human resource management systems (HRMS) may contain some elements of HCM solutions, but they also have several tools to help employees as well. These include an efficient and flexible way for workers to clock in and out, manage their schedules, and easily communicate with colleagues even if they are working remotely.

Company database An essential HRIS system component is a database where all pieces of information about employees and company HR procedures will be stored for use in other HRIS tools.
