What to look for when selecting a lost and found platform?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Each hotel is different and thus the first thing to identify is what are exactly your needs. To do so you can ask the following questions:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
- How many people are they going to work on the lost and found management process?<\/li>
- What happens when you find a lost item?<\/li>
- How do you capture all the required information about a lost item?<\/li>
- How do you support incoming requests about lost items? Who is going to handle those cases? What is the process that you will follow?<\/li>
- What happens if a guest want’s their lost item back? How are you going to ship the lost item? (HINT: Deliverback<\/a>)<\/li>
- …<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n
you got the point. There are hundreds if not thousands of relevant questions you need to answer when trying to organise your lost and found process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While you don’t have to copy, it is always a good idea to look for existing solutions and talk to existing hotel managers or hotel owners about their lost and found process. This could give you an idea not only about their exiting solution but also about their main challenges and issues they are facing when managing their lost and found process<\/p>\n\n\n\n
