RLA Global Operational Services at a Glance

Portfolio Optimisation

RLA Global has developed a rigorous methodology for evaluating hospitality portfolios with the aim of optimising them for future investment returns using a number of different levers. These levers include refurbishing, rebranding, repositioning, disposing of and acquiring new assets. Our methodology is predicated on the use of a number of different tools and processes, including:

  • A thorough review of the various portfolio assets’ markets using a multi-factor model that we’ve developed.
  • Benchmarking each asset and its performance against its competitive set.
  • Analysing adjacent market segments and ancillary and new revenue generation possibilities, including ‘Blue Ocean’ opportunities.
  • Analysing refurbishing, rebranding and repositioning options and their associated costs vs. the forecasted improvements in their financial performance.
  • Analysing asset disposal and acquisition opportunities, including the extant M&A climate and asset valuations.

We engage with our clients in an interactive manner and discuss our ideas and recommendations with them on a regular basis during the ‘Portfolio Optimisation’ assignment. The outcome of the assignment will be a thoroughly researched set of recommendations regarding the management of the portfolio and a presentation in which every recommendation is discussed and substantiated.
