additional accommodations for your remote crews.

Flexible Ways to Book Your Rooms

Front desk staff can create reservations while checking guests in, blocking rooms for incoming crews, or reviewing room availability across your camp or asset.

Travel coordinators, department leads, sub-contractors, or authorized parties can book rooms through an online portal. Provide them access to full room inventory or set a limit on the number of rooms they can book (e.g., within a room allotment).

Quickly set up roster schedules for your crews. Auto-book room reservations days, weeks or months in advance for workers on rotating rosters.

Gain access to accurate and up-to-date room availability. New reservations and cancellations immediately update room inventory in the system, ensuring maximum room utilization and preventing overbooking.

Give department leads, contractors or other authorized parties the ability to forecast the number of rooms they will need in the coming weeks or months, to better predict room utilization across your camp or asset.
