Global Hotel Chain Streamlines Utility Reporting Across 400 Locations

The Challenge

A hotel company with over 400 locations in multiple countries was struggling to gather and understand utility bills in 7 different languages. Their internal sustainability team was overwhelmed by the manual process of consolidating this data into reports, leading to inefficiencies and delayed insights. With inconsistent formats and language barriers, identifying consumption trends and optimizing energy use was a constant challenge.

The Solution

With Cedalio, hotel managers now simply forward their utility bills via email to a central admin team. Cedalio’s automated system extracts relevant data from each bill—no matter the format or language—into a single dashboard for easy review. The platform provides real-time insights, including consumption trends, peak and off-peak usage, and automated alerts for unusual patterns. This level of centralized control has empowered their sustainability team to drive efficiency across properties, saving them time and providing a unified view of energy consumption.

The Impact

  • Reduced Data Processing Time: Cut down report generation time by 70%.
  • Increased Accuracy: Eliminated manual entry errors, ensuring data integrity across locations.
  • Enhanced Visibility: Real-time monitoring of energy usage across all properties, enabling faster decision-making.
  • Optimized Energy Use: Cedalio’s insights into peak and off-peak usage helped identify opportunities to optimize energy consumption during high-demand times, leading to a 15% reduction in overall energy costs.
