Student: Sushann Holmes
Course Unit: L5 THM230913 Hotel Operations Management
Learning Outcome 1: "Referred 64%
Sushann, you demonstrate a clear foundational understanding of hotel types, guest expectations, service importance, and operational considerations. You correctly identify the hotel categories and show practical awareness of how service and aesthetics influence guest perception. Your recommendations are sensible and aligned with the scenario. However, the work remains largely descriptive rather than analytical. At this academic level, stronger application of hotel operations theory is required. Concepts such as service intensity models, ADR logic, service gap theory, operational sustainability, and systems reasoning should be explicitly applied. Comparative analysis between the two hotels needs to be deeper and more structured, particularly when discussing long-term business risk and pricing logic.
To pass, your answers must move beyond explanation into structured evaluation supported by operations management theory. Focus on linking ideas to measurable business impact (revenue, cost, scalability, brand positioning). With deeper analytical reasoning, your work can significantly improve."
Learning Outcome 2: "Pass 71%
Sushann, your work demonstrates a clear understanding of the communication failures in the Silver Cove case. You correctly identify major breakdowns between Front Office, Housekeeping, and other departments, and you clearly articulate how these failures created guest dissatisfaction, staff confusion, and operational inefficiencies. Your awareness of ripple effects and reputational damage shows good conceptual understanding of operational interdependence. However, at this academic level, stronger analytical depth and application of hotel operations theory are required. Your answers remain largely descriptive and would benefit from structured systems-thinking, clearer categorisation of root causes (leadership, structure, planning tools, culture), and stronger linkage to operational frameworks such as SOP alignment, BEO systems, real-time PMS updates, and service quality models. Recommendations should also be more operationally specific and measurable.For a better result, you must demonstrate deeper critical evaluation, leadership analysis, and structured operational reasoning rather than explanation alone. With improved analytical structure, your performance could significantly increase."
