HI,
AS PER YOUR QUESTION THINK UR ASKING STANDARD OPERATION PROCESS, IS WHAT YOU WANT TO KNOW, I ASSUME.
SOP IS INTERNAL AND THE SAME HAS TO BE UNDERSTOOD BY A INTERNAL EMPLOYEE, OUTSIDERS CANT SUGGEST AN SOP FOR YOUR HOTEL
TRY TO UNDERSTAND YOUR COMPANY REQUIREMENT, SEE WHERE THE TIME IS CONSUMED THE MAXIMUM, HOW YOU CAN CRASH A PARTICULAR PROCESS, WHY A PARTICULAR PROCESS TAKES MORE TIME AND, WHICH ALL PROCESS ARE OUT DATED AND SAME CAN BE DISCARDED.
UNDERSTAND PULSE OF YOUR BUSINESS, CRITICAL AREAS OF BUSINESS, AREAS OF URGENCY, WHEN YOU COLLECT ALL THIS DATA YOU CAN MAKE A SOP.
YOU CAN GATHER THIS DATA, EITHER FROM OPERATIONS TEAM, OR CAN INCURRED FROM THE DAILY COMPLAINS THAT ARE REPORTED BY THE EMPLOYEES,
YOU CAN ALSO GET DATA FROM UNDERSTAND THE NEEDS OF THE EMPLOYEE, IN TERMS OF OPERATION AND NOT FROM HR PROSPECTIVE.
UNDERSTANDING OF SUPPLY CHAIN WILL HELP YOU DEVELOP A BETTER SOP.

SOP – Its called Standard Operating Procedures
SOP has to be prepared by each departmental functions and notifying the concerned employees as to how the hotel policy and procedures to be followed to ensure a guest stay is more comfortable.
I am just giving a small example :
Mr. X is a guest & he is staying in your hotel and he placed an order for coffee in the RSOT Cabin.
RSOT’s work starts as soon as the intercom rings and this assignment will get over only after clearing the vessels from the concerned guest room. Eventhough a coffee order sounds very simple, here is the SOP plays the major role and the RSOT have to follow a certain follow ups involving other department personnel to deliver this coffee to the particular guest on time.
Here the other department personnel of Service Department & Kitchen Department will have a separate SOP as far as their department functions are concerned.
SOP’s have to the prepared by the concerned HOD’s
Trust this is clear.
