Question

What technology is out there that could be included in a hotel setting, whether in the guest room or for use elsewhere in the building? Do some research....find out what what's

new, what's cutting edge, what could be applicable for a hotel and that will help address an aspect of sustainability (one of the 3Ps/EES). • Explain what this technology is - how will it function in a hotel Housekeeping or Engineering context? • What role will this technology play in helping either one or both of these departments to be sustainable? • Think about some of the below questions (this is get you thinking, it's not necessary to answer all/any of these questions), as they may be relevant, assuming you implemented this technology in a hotel: •What might that mean for how we are constructing our rooms? •What might it mean for how we are operating and maintaining our facility? •What might it mean for how our staff are trained or how they have to work? • Is this technology a "nice to have" or do you think it NEEDS to be included for a sustainable operation? • Is this technology being used by guests and how might this impact the housekeeping or engineering department? • What else do you think you should consider?
