Client Overview:

Mercure Puka Park, a premium resort nestled in the serene surroundings of New Zealand's Coromandel Peninsula, is part of the esteemed Accor Group Vacation Club. The hotel management sought to optimize their LPG (liquefied petroleum gas) usage to enhance operational efficiency and reduce costs.

Challenges:

The Grand Mercure Puka Park faced challenges related to inefficient LPG usage and inadequate pressure across its facilities. Additionally, the existing LPG setup was prone to wastage, leading to unnecessary costs.

Solutions Implemented:

The proposed solution was projected to deliver significant savings of 12-15% on LPG costs for the Grand Mercure Puka Park. By introducing metered LPG bottles and high-capacity setups, wastage would be minimized, and better pressure would be ensured across the hotel's facilities. These improvements would not only result in cost savings but also enhance operational efficiency and guest satisfaction.

Proposal Approval Process:

Following the presentation of the proposal, the management of Grand Mercure Puka Park has approved the solution in principle. Final sign-offs are pending, indicating a positive response to the proposed initiative.
