This edition explores the issues schools face in the constantly evolving accommodation sector. Join us as we highlight the obstacles accommodation teams encounter and the innovative solutions Intrinsiq has developed to help your team operate seamlessly and stress-free.

Are you struggling to see which rooms are available at any given time? Do your admissions staff lack a quick view of accommodation availability, making it difficult to answer agent queries promptly?

Intrinsiq allows you to deal with the agents even when the accommodation manager is not available. When an agent calls the office to speak with the accommodation manager, but the manager isn’t available, you can check the accommodation booking report for the necessary information. This report contains key details like the student's name, age, and gender, along with information on which rooms are already booked and which are still available for dates and weeks. This allows you to provide quick and accurate answers in the manager’s absence.

Are you facing constant room or bed reservations from the admissions team that seem never-ending? Is it challenging to keep track of which bookings have been confirmed and which are still pending?

Intrinsiq allows you to make temporary reservations for rooms and beds, ensuring that you can book them for the needed time frame. By setting a time limit on these bookings, you prevent unnecessary room occupation, reducing the risk of blocking issues. This simplifies the reservation process, removing the need to manually monitor all temporary bookings. It boosts efficiency and makes managing reservations more straightforward, leading to a smoother overall process.

Have you been flooded with calls from host families requesting details about their students and arrival times? Have you contacted families, certain they had a free room, only to find out the room is under maintenance or being used by visiting relatives?

Host families can access the Intrinsiq system through the dedicated host family portal, where they can view booked students and relevant details, as per the school’s settings. They can also mark times when they are unavailable or when a room is not free using the Intrinsiq calendar. This ensures an up-to-date availability calendar, facilitating smooth communication and scheduling for both the families and the school.

Intrinsiq tackles the accommodation challenges faced by schools with inventive solutions. By enhancing the process of matching students with host families and improving communication, Intrinsiq ensures a more efficient and accurate management of reservations. This helps schools and host families alike maintain clear and reliable accommodation arrangements.
