👉Office procurement has the ability to influence the ambiance, flow, and functionality of an office space.

Choice of desks, chairs, lighting, colours, textures, team break-out areas, and comfort levels in general not only affect the mood of employees but importantly the productivity.

Personal space and safety have become paramount, as a result of recent events. Space layouts have changed with companies opting for types of that create more personal space for employees. Working from home has encouraged companies to do two things: one, keep vacant desks empty and two, allow employees to purchase desks and chairs for their home office.

At Orsini, we understand the responsibility of for offices and we enjoy the challenge to create office environments that are spacious and safe while promoting , creative inspiration, and ultimate productivity.

Let’s talk about sleep. SLEEP EXPERIENCE, is one of the top reasons guests return to hotels and recommend them.

The differences between sleep and bed related OS&E within the hotel sector is more varied than anyone could imagine, even within the 5 Star category alone! While each hotel brand has their individual standards and guidelines, the sourcing and procurement process for sleep related items can make the world of difference between hotel sleep experiences.

According to the SleepFoundation.org the feel of mattresses, pillows and sheets directly affect the quality of sleep. Mattresses should be comfortable and supportive and facilitate rest, rather than aches and pain.

At OrsiniSPI, we pay particular attention to construction, we’re also passionate about thread count of bed linen, fabric quality and how to achieve both within budgets and time frames.

The thickness or thinness of a pillow should enable sleep with the head, neck and shoulders aligned with the spine.

We consider 5 important factors when sourcing duvets:

1. FILLING – Duvets are typically made with one of two types of filling: natural (down, silk, bamboo, wool) or synthetic (microfiber).
2. WARMTH/WEIGHT – We consider the average sleeper profile.
3. TICKING/SHELL – Minimum of 220 thread count to ensure ‘down proof’.
4. CONSTRUCTION – Bafflebox is best for creating even distribution of filling.
5. LAYERING UP – We consider the other layers of fabric we choose for the bed.

At Orsini, we believe OS&E for beds and bedrooms has the ability to recharge a guest with an unforgettable SLEEP EXPERIENCE and ensure their hasty return and recommendation!

👉 At Orsini, we have organically developed ways of working that allow us to measure within our own decision making. Hotel includes thousands of items that have a direct impact on our planet.⁠

In 2021 one of the goals is to develop similar criteria or Green Rating System for our clients, to assist them with their own sustainability goals. Stay tuned to follow our developments and ideas.⁠

We know that FF&E sourced for hotels is typically replaced 5 to 7 years after being installed, depending on wear and tear. Our goal is to elements which have a longer life span and can be repurposed and disposed of in an environmentally conscious way.⁠

👉OS&E that is innovative with an edge, helped to deliver the conceptual ambience of KnoX Bar,

At Orsini SPI, we view operating supplies and equipment as tangibles that play an important role in creating a unique atmosphere like KnoX.

‘Vibe = Tribe’ according to this ‘speak-easy’ bar, curiously located across the driveway and down a staircase of the Andaz. Here they greet customers with quirky, quote culture, so the first impression makes big promises for the contemporary mixology to come.

Customer expectations of bars are sky-high in terms of originality, innovation, fashion, design and customer experience, so every single piece of OS&E is critically procured.

The procurement field has never been considered ‘exciting’, rather it’s often labeled as ‘boring’ or suitable for the 'accountancy-minded'!

We believe that hotel couldn’t be further from the truth. Delivering a luxurious 5-star hotel experience relies upon thousands of thousands of glamourous, design-conscious, captivating, sensorial tangible elements.

Hotel procurement is an extension of any hotel brand and part of the escapism and travel fantasy that is the guest experience.

Orsini SPI’s selection process involves establishing an understanding of our hotel client’s vision and brand. Our extensive supplier network then provides a wide selection of unique solutions for creating a memorable hotel and brand experience.

♻️ Alternatives to single-use plastic in guest rooms and bathrooms can create contemporary design statements.
♻️ In addition, bathroom liquid amenities presented in bulk size ceramic, glass, and metal re-useable dispensers can make hefty design features and contain design elements not found in single-use plastic packaging.
♻️ One 300ml bulk size container can save 25 bottles of single-use plastic over 30 days!
♻️ Did you know that by the year 2050 there will be more plastic in our seas than fish, at the current rate of plastic use!

New and sustainable materials are constantly making their way into mainstream manufacturing. Our goal is to identify them early and source products that we know are fitting with our client's specific hotel brand standards and desired guest experiences.

At Orsini SPI we believe that the role of hotel procurement should successfully and effectively deliver on both sustainability and luxury. This is what keeps us awake at night and drives us through the day.

How often have you received goods that don't match your expectations?
Because when it happens your project is delayed, causes additional expenses, and can hurt your brand image.

To minimize the risk of receiving poorly manufactured furniture, define quality standards and ensure frequent production inspections by obtaining several samples and carrying out factory inspections.

Important factors to check during QC inspection:
👉production progress
👉measurements
👉material used
👉comfort level
👉fit for purpose
👉packaging

And it can be fun too! You have to jump on chairs, pinch, prod, push, pull, pound and put pressure on furniture to stress test its performance and durability. Checking and re-checking until you are absolutely sure of the overall quality and performance of any sourced item.

And when travel is restricted and quality needs to be monitored remotely, our strong network and enduring relationships with suppliers ensures quality expectations are always met.
