Price Tracker What is it?
The Price Tracker is a quick, real-world snapshot of what our hotels have recently paid or been quoted for commonly purchased items across categories like FF&E, OS&E, Appliances, and Engineering . It compiles recent purchases from our properties so GMs can see typical price ranges and vendors used at a glance. Use it to sanity-check a budget, pressure-test a quote, or spot alternatives that other hotels are successfully deploying.

• Useful Reports
• MSR Report • Participation Report • Ecolab Distribution Report • Impact Savings Opportunity Report
Participation Reporting
Tab 1 – Participation Report
• This tab is a general overview for each of our locations. • The scores are generated based on our spend versus other like hotels in the same area. • This can be skewed as other hotels in the area will have different occupancy rates, group business, new hotel opening orders, etc. • F&B and Room Ops are the biggest drivers for Total Participation.
Participation Reporting
Tab 2 – Impact Report
• This tab shows percentage of spend with the Master Food Distributor that is on contracted items. • Look for these symbols when ordering:
Participation Reporting
Tab 3 – Bracket Report
• This tab shows the bracket each location is currently in, which way they are trending, and how they can improve. • A bracket is your delivery size with the MFD. • Increasing your bracket will lower food costs. Eggs, bacon, sausage, etc. will lower in price as you increase your bracket. • Each bracket is an average savings of 4% on food. • Ordering chemicals and paper supplies from your MFD is the easiest way to increase your current bracket size.
This report highlights properties that are purchasing cleaning chemicals outside of their Master Food Distributor. Ecolab Distribution Report
Impact Savings Opportunity Report
This report shows potential savings from what you are currently ordering with your MFD. • The report does not take brand specs into effect. • The alternative lower cost option does include the product number.
AP ID Issues Who do I reach out to when iBuy has a missing AP ID while processing invoices? • First, Check HIA to see if the supplier is mapped to your location: • Data Views > HIA-Vendor-Location • Filter LocationID to your specific HIA code • If you do NOT see the vendor you need, reach out to apvendormaintenance@peachtreegroup.com • Once a supplier is mapped to your hotel in HIA, HIA will then feed that information to iBuy via the overnight ‘feed’ • If you still do not see an AP ID listed in iBuy after these steps, please reach out to your Procurement Team
CapEx What to Know
Capitalize if:
Expense if:
Aggregate Purchases (De Minimis): • An aggregate group of like items where each item ≤ $1,000 and the group total > $1,000 • Case by case basis • Items MUST be necessary for hotel operations • Examples • Sconces, Chairs, Tables, Safes, etc. • Televisions and mini fridges • Shelving, luggage carts, housekeeping carts
• Asset life > 1 year AND cost > $2,500, OR • Extraordinary repair ≥ $2,500 that extends useful life or increases capacity, OR • Improvement project ≥ $5,000, OR • Renovation FF&E (likely capital, subject to tax review)
• Life ≤ 1 year, or • Cost below thresholds and not part of an improvement/renovation project, or • Item is on the “always expense” list (linens, china, smallwares, etc.), or • Repair doesn’t extend life beyond 1 year, regardless of cost.
CapEx Requests What to Know
