For The Standardx's on-site visits related to IT Project Management Services, what is the purpose of Visit 4?

According to The Standardx's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, Visit 4 of the on-site IT Project Management Services involves being on-site at the hotel during the pre-opening week. During this visit, The Standardx works with the PMS/POS (Property Management System/Point of Sale), keylock, E-room (likely referring to an electronic or equipment room), in-room entertainment, and telephone teams to ensure these systems are properly set up and integrated before the hotel opens to guests. This visit is crucial for ensuring that essential technology systems are operational and ready for use upon the hotel's opening. This visit is approximate and may be removed, combined, or added as necessary.

For a prospective The Standardx franchisee, this means that during the week leading up to the hotel's opening, The Standardx IT personnel will be actively involved in the final stages of IT system implementation. This includes coordinating with various technology vendors and internal teams to ensure that systems like property management, point of sale, electronic access, in-room entertainment, and telephone services are functioning correctly. The franchisee should ensure that all relevant teams and vendors are available and prepared to collaborate with The Standardx during this critical pre-opening phase.

This on-site visit helps to streamline the hotel opening process by addressing any last-minute technical issues and ensuring that all IT systems are properly integrated and functioning. By providing on-site support and coordination, The Standardx aims to minimize potential disruptions and ensure a smooth opening for the franchisee's hotel. The franchisee should be prepared to actively participate in this process, providing necessary access and resources to facilitate the IT team's work.
