BROAD ORGANISATIONAL DETAILS

Chifley Hotels are a chain of hotels which are owned and operated by a larger hotel management company called Touraust. The Chifley Hotel name was established in Melbourne in 1998 by Touraust corporation who purchased the Old Melbourne Hotel on Flemington Hotel, now known as Chifley on Flemington.

The majority of Chifleys revenue comes from its sales and accommodation, however Chifley is not just a hotel, it has a variety of departments that generate significant amounts of revenue. The Haymarket 1886 restaurant which caters for a more fine dining and intimate restaurant experience. The Chifley coffee shop which is a more casual and in-house dining experience. The Norman Lindsay bar marketed to in-house guests and business travelers to relax and have a few drinks in front of a open wood fire. Nellies public bar and better known as Dirty Nellies , is great for a Friday night knock off drink with workmates.

Last but not least the Banquets Department which caters for conferences of all sorts including food and beverage service for business breakfast s, luncheons, or business/charity dinners, Weddings and birthdays.

Along with Chifley, Touraust corporation own and operate other hotels such as The Hyatt, Australis, and various resorts such as Country Comfort.

BRIEF INDUSTRY ANALYSIS

Chifley on Flemington is rated as a 4.5 star hotel and does not compete with the likes of Grand 5 star hotels such as Sheraton Towers or the Windsor, however competes with Market niche hotels such as Novatel and Rydges which are also 4.5 star. Though driven by reputation Chifley does not aim any higher than the 4.5 standard.

By budgeting ahead it enables Chifley to recognise the financial situation which they predict to be in, in the future. Budgeting can determine whether or not they can employ more staff or if they can expand or pay their current employees more.

The management team stated that they are happy with the current turnover rates and they have no intentions on expanding the current premises or the organisation as a whole .

Individual functions and divisions have agendas which may not be identical, so conflict over resources and the need for change may produce power struggles within the organisation.

CONFLICT

Within Chifley, conflict is a major factor because they have 3 management bodies (The Grand, The Chifley & Toasts). These 3 bodies need to work together as one, in order to over come problems which concern budgeting and the way in which the organisation is managed to reach its most capable potential.
