DRM Budget vs Fairmas

DRM Budget is web software for hotel and hotel-group budgeting, forecasting, cash flow and cost management. Financial planning compares budgets, forecasts, prior-year figures and actuals through a shared account tree. Revenue planning covers rooms, food and beverage, and other revenue by board type, market segment and distribution channel. Cash Flow & Treasury provides daily cash statements plus 13-week and medium-term projections. Workforce tools cover headcount, payroll simulation and labour productivity; inventory budgets use standard consumption, planned volume and inflation. Energy & CAPEX tracks meter-level consumption, energy costs and capital projects against budgets and actuals. Hotel groups can consolidate authorized properties by brand, region or ownership cluster while retaining property-specific accounts and departments. Actuals are mapped from an existing accounting system, which remains in place. Permissions, approvals, delegation, period locks and an audit trail support governance. Onboarding includes data import, role setup and training through the first budget cycle.
