Background
Great National Hotels operate a group of hotel properties in Ireland and the U.K. They possess unique business intelligence centered around hotel room price optimisation. Great National saw an opportunity to develop a technology platform and deliver this intelligence to hotel operators across the globe as a cloud service. This new platform is called Revanista.
fourTheorem have a context-first approach and focus on delivering business value. We are experts in the hospitality industry but knew there was a massive opportunity to leverage the cloud and build a technology-enabled hotel price optimisation platform.
A key part of our vision was the capability to leverage AI and Machine Learning. This is where fourTheorem win hands-down. They combine a deep understanding built up over decades of experience in software with a sixth sense for where technology is headed. This depth of understanding combined with their extensive knowledge of AI, serverless microservices and cloud architecture, quickly advanced the development of a major new part of our business.
The Challenge
- Great National had business intelligence but no internal technology expertise
- Needed a partner that had expertise to leverage AI
The Solution
- Built and deployed serverless solution on AWS
- Interviewed candidates and built a development team within Great National
- Full handover to internal team with ongoing development/architecture guidance and mentorship from fourTheorem
The Outcome
Low Cost
Serverless solution meant no technology CAPEX and near-zero operating costs
Scalability
Serverless technology is massively scalable and ready for future growth
