Wage and Cost Control

Getting your numbers right – daily.

At 1834 Hotels, we treat hotel wage control and cost management as non-negotiable. These are the areas where profit is either made or lost.

We bring the structure and tools that help hotel owners manage labour costs, control spending, and stay confidently in charge of their finances.

Smarter Wage Management

Live data, leaner operations, stronger results.

We don’t wait for end-of-month reports to fix a problem. We track wage spend in real time, weighted against daily revenue, so we can spot issues early and adjust before they cost you.

Plus, our digital wage control system reduces admin, integrates with payroll, and keeps rosters award-accurate. With features like biometric logins and job-level tracking, it helps your team stay compliant and cost-effective.

Efficient Rostering

Less time spent on admin, more time on performance.

Our system eliminates errors and delays in scheduling, streamlines approvals, and frees up your General Manager’s time to lead their team. We support the entire wage process:

  • Live wage-to-revenue tracking
  • Automated award-compliant rosters
  • Digital timesheets and payroll integration
  • Active GM support and oversight

Expense Control

Every dollar accounted for, every day.

We work closely with your hotel team to manage daily expenses, control cost of goods, and review purchasing decisions. From food and beverage to general operations, we bring structured processes and transparency to every expense line. Our cost control tools include:

  • Daily cost of goods reporting
  • Detailed stocktaking systems
  • Budget tracking and purchasing limits
  • Manager coaching and accountability

Purchasing & Group Buying Power

Better deals, less waste, more value.

We bring oversight to all purchasing systems, with approvals, invoice tracking, and cloud-based reporting built in. Owners have real-time visibility and the confidence that spending is under control. And thanks to our group buying power, your hotel gets access to discounted pricing on everything from F&B to maintenance, marketing, and cleaning supplies.
