BOTTLENECKS AND THEIR SOLUTION


The management of the Serena Hotel are very much contended with their IT system because when there are changes made in the WHS, the top management responds to it in a very effective manner by bringing about the demanded changes to meet the standards of the WHS. Also when there is a demand of some upgradation of the softwares by the IT staff, the management also pays heed to it and responds appropriately.
