Case Study

Sheraton Nairobi Westlands

AI-powered operations and approvals platform for a flagship hotel. Department heads stopped waiting hours for sign-offs and started moving in minutes.

The Challenge

Approvals That Took Hours

Hotel operations run on approvals: procurement, maintenance, staffing, and expense sign-offs. Every one was a bottleneck.

HODs Waiting for Hours

Department heads queued for approvals that sat in inboxes or on desks. A single maintenance request could stall an entire department's workday.

No Audit Trail

Approvals lived in email threads and WhatsApp chats. No record of who approved what, when, or why, which made compliance review painful.

Approvers as a Bottleneck

Key decisions funneled through a few people. When they were in meetings or off property, operations simply stopped.

The Solution

What Was Built

An AI-powered operations platform that routes, tracks, and accelerates every approval across the hotel.

Automated Approval Workflows

Every request is routed to the right approver automatically, with role-based rules, deadlines, and escalation if it sits too long.

AI-Powered Prioritisation

The system learns which approvals are urgent, surfaces them to the top, and predicts delays before they happen.

Complete Audit Trail

Every decision is logged with timestamps, comments, and attachments. Compliance and finance reviews now take minutes, not days.

Mobile-First Approvals

Approvers act from their phones, from anywhere. Escalation rules route around unavailable staff automatically.
