Wireless energy management systems can significantly reduce installation costs for hotels by 30-50% compared to wired systems. They allow hotels to control lighting and AC in unoccupied rooms to save energy. Smart hotel solutions provide wireless systems like thermostats, motion sensors, and door sensors to help hotels save money. An energy management system encourages hotels to plan and take actions to reduce unnecessary energy use and costs. It improves energy performance visibility and compares use to targets to optimize savings. A 7-step EMS audit process assesses current use, identifies savings opportunities, and provides an implementation plan to continuously save energy through systems like thermostat settings and lighting controls.Max'ing cmmi benefit extra efficiencies & higher performance v1.0

Activity based costingPraveen Ojha

Activity based costing (ABC) assigns costs to activities and products based on their actual consumption of resources. It identifies major activities, determines their costs, and assigns costs to products based on cost drivers. ABC provides more accurate product costs than traditional absorption costing. It helps identify non-value adding activities to control costs and supports decision making.
Target costing is a technique where the target cost of a product is determined based on the desired selling price minus the target profit. It involves setting cost reduction targets during product planning and development to achieve the target cost. The benefits of target costing include increased profitability of new products and providing information to forecast future costs.
