Febc International 1.Thorough understanding of the budget The most crucial question to ask your purchasing firm is to set the ’cost per key’ dimensions. What and how does a key is defined while setting the budget for FF&E purchasing? What spaces does it include? Does it include the corridors and the bathrooms? How is it calculated? By dividing the total amount spent with the total number of keys? Does it include soft costs? What all is included in the big E of FF&E? Is that specific item not covered under OS&E? As there are no universal definitions for FF&E and OS&E, differences do occur. Therefore it is important to have a ”differentiation document” framed between the parties which can be referred in case of clarifying the responsibilities. Hotel Statistics: Infograph 05.19
