Your property. Your starting point.
What needs to change?
A phone system that is hard to maintain, a new wing or a second location: each calls for a different plan. Start with the situation that fits your property.
A new property
Bring calling, cabling and operational requirements into the project before equipment decisions become expensive to change.
Plan your systemA property group
Consider how reservations, internal calls and responsibilities should work across locations, while keeping each property’s needs visible.
Connect your propertiesBeyond the telephone
Every call has a job to do.
Begin with the people who use the system. These are the conversations and workflows to map before selecting a PBX, phones or integrations.
Reception & reservations
Map incoming calls, transfers, busy periods and unanswered calls around the way your team works.
Guestrooms
Check the existing phones, room numbering and essential calling needs before choosing replacements.
Housekeeping & operations
Identify which room-status or staff workflows need integration, then verify the exact system requirements.
Management & IT
Set clear ownership for configuration, renewals, access, backups and fault escalation.
Workflow availability depends on the selected platform, licence, connected systems and tested configuration.
An implementation walkthrough
A new system starts with a careful look at the old one.
Replacing everything is a decision to justify. First establish the condition of your phones, cabling, carrier services and network. Then test the proposed approach against the work your hotel needs to do.
For an operating property, the change plan should name the affected areas, expected interruptions, acceptance checks and the point at which to fall back.

How we work
Clarity at every stage.
- 01
Assess
Review equipment, connectivity, call flows and constraints.
- 02
Design & quote
Define the scope, exclusions and recurring costs.
- 03
Test
Agree acceptance checks and prove key workflows.
- 04
Migrate
Plan the change window, communication and fallback.
- 05
Hand over
Document the system, train staff and agree support.
Know the full cost
Look beyond the price of the equipment.
Installation is one part of the budget. Licensing, connectivity, calls, support and renewals shape the cost of running the system. Know what each proposal includes.
Understand the cost driversCheck the exact fit
“PMS compatible” needs a better answer.
A product name is not enough. Check the version, interface, licences and hotel workflows you need, then agree how the configuration will be tested.
What to verify before buyingScandiTech in Indonesia
Good advice. Clear responsibilities.
PT Scanditech Solusi Indonesia focuses on business communications, with hospitality among its stated service areas. Bring your property’s requirements into the conversation—and ask for the implementation and support scope in writing.
Before you decide
The questions worth asking.
Possibly. The phone model, signalling type, cabling condition and proposed system all matter. Analogue phones may need gateways; proprietary digital phones may not be reusable. Start with an inventory and a representative test.
An operating hotel needs a staged plan around reception and guest needs. Parallel running may be possible, but depends on the existing equipment and carrier. Any expected interruption, fallback and acceptance checks should be agreed before the change.
Compatibility depends on the PMS product, version, interface and workflow, as well as the telephone platform. Vendor documentation is a starting point; a working integration should be tested for your configuration before it is accepted.
The scope determines the cost: phones and gateways, network work, installation, licensing, hosting, carrier charges and support. Compare one-off and recurring items together. Pricing is confirmed once the property and scope are understood.
The answer depends on where calling is hosted, which network and carrier services it uses, and what has backup power. Review these dependencies and test agreed fallback routes, including their limitations.
Agree one reporting route and a responsibility map across the phone system, carrier, ISP, local network and PMS. Support hours, response targets and included work must be stated in your agreement.
